Motherhood has a way of reshaping how women experience their bodies, confidence, and creativity. In this episode, Mikaela sits down with Paula, a dance instructor who rediscovered her love of dance later in life-and through movement, has helped countless women reconnect with themselves.

They talk about how motherhood evolves over time, what it means to reclaim your body after having kids, and why embracing sensuality and confidence isn't about performing for anyone else-it's about self-expression, embodiment, and coming home to yourself. The conversation also explores the powerful community she's built through adult heels dance classes, creating safe, supportive spaces where women are encouraged to take up space, feel confident in their bodies, and move unapologetically.

This episode is for any woman navigating motherhood, body image, or identity shifts-and serves as a reminder that choosing yourself, reconnecting with movement, and prioritizing self-care is not selfish, it's sustaining.
