Ep 112: Dance: It’s Not About Getting It Right - It’s About Getting In The Room - with Vanessa Friscia
Season 3 · Ep 112
About this episode
How many times have you said, “I’d love to try that…” — and then didn’t?
Yeah… same.
This episode is your nudge (or let’s be honest… your loving push) to stop overthinking it and just get in the room.
Today, I’m joined by the incredible Vanessa Friscia, founder of V-Hub Dance - and someone who has completely changed the way I think about confidence, fun, and trying new things as an adult.
Because here’s the truth:
Most people love the idea of dancing…
But very few actually do it.
And it’s not because they can’t - it’s because they’re overthinking it.
In this episode, we unpack:
Why adults find it so hard to try something new (even when they want to)
Why pushing past the nerves and just showing up is worth it revery time
Why dance is one of the most powerful tools for confidence, wellbeing, and self-expression
The unexpected life lessons that come from being a beginner again
Why “getting it wrong” might be exactly what you need
How to bring more fun, movement, and risk-taking into your life
Because the goal isn’t to be perfect.
It’s not even to be good.
It’s to get in the room.
