How do you cope with stress? In this episode we explore the importance of asking ourselves this question and discuss mental wellness in the dance and performance industry space. To lead this conversation, I am joined by the creators of Danscend, Kristin Deiss & Michelle Loucadoux.

Danscend's mission is to bring mental wellness to the forefront of dance training by providing a space for education, application, and community to dancers, educators and professionals alike.

These ladies have been working together in the education field for seven years, and created this business due to the overwhelming need that they observed in their students. Both creators wrestled with various issues in their professional dance careers which we touch on in the show.

Kristen and Michelle have created resources that they wish were available when they were beginning their dance careers, such as their free eBook, "Coping with Stress".

Wowsers! It's show season and here we go again. As our production schedules creep up on us, somehow we land back into that hectic time of year. Time certainly does fly when you are planning a mega show. 

It can be overwhelming and quite frankly feel like absolute madness, but this organised chaos is just a part of running a studio. In today's episode I'm sharing my own experience in the hopes you can relate. I want you to know that if you feel a little insane right now, you're not alone. So let's get into today's show!

A big challenge Studio Owners face today is managing their time and energy while juggling "all the things". It can be tough as we work through the concept of turning our passion into profit, but it's possible!

In episode 58 of 'Business, Arts and All That Jazz' I chat with the amazingly talented dancepreneur and dance business expert, Deborah Laws. You are in for a treat! I had a lot of fun with my lovely UK guest, as she shares her insights on how to help you create a thriving and successful studio. Enjoy the show!

The good news is you can undo what you did! So let's learn from it, dust our selves off, and make magical things happen smoothly.

The questions I see often amongst the performing arts studio community are...  Should we charge for costumes? How much can we charge for competitions or administration fees? How much should we charge in general and is it ok to charge more than the cost price?  Is it fair to charge for my time?... and all that jazz. 

Today, I want to talk charging your worth!

Do you put profit first in your studio business? I know, I know, we're driven by passion as creatives because we love what we do, but it's really important to prioritise profit. So how do I do that you ask?

If you follow some key guidelines, such as having different provisional bank accounts to hold funds for various categories and create category percentage splits across those holding accounts, then you are off to a good start!

If you feel confused that's ok as I break it down for you. Perhaps you are curious which is great too! In this episode, I share with you exactly how I run my accounts, and the categories I provision money for.

I hope this helps you have a better cash flow in your business. Enjoy the show!
