This week on Broche Banter, we’re switching things up! Our very own Julie takes the guest seat as the wonderful Grace Owen, dancer, dance photographer, and popular returning guest on the show, leads the conversation.

Julie opens up about her unconventional ballet journey, starting at 17, moving to New York and discovering not just ballet classes, but also herself. She shares the realities of running a business, from compromise and authenticity to productivity and handling negativity in a way that fuels growth.

We also dive into her transition from having a physical studio to a virtual one during the pandemic and we celebrate her pioneering work in creating performance opportunities for non-professional dancers to step into the spotlight.

This episode is a reminder that no dream is too late, no path too unconventional and no passion too small to pursue. ✨
