Season 1 Episode 4: You vs. Career

Episode 4 features a dear friend, fellow dance educator and brilliant dance artist, Allison Eversoll. Over a glass of Cooper & Thief’s Red Wine Blend, we recall a phone conversation that spiraled into a podcast-worthy episode.

In the dance industry - specifically, higher education dance - employment can often be a difficult journey as the job pool is small, selective, and lengthy in process. These descriptors can also apply to the commercial dance industry or any other field that involves dance/art in general. When presented with a potential job opportunity to teach in higher education across the country, Allison was forced to confront a big (and unfamiliar) decision…choosing herself and her current goals….or her career. This episode breaks down the process specific to her decision making, and unveils larger questions such as:

Why do dance artists feel guilty about not choosing or accepting to work in the dance industry, simply because they don’t want to? Not only will this rich conversation reach dancers, but will be understood by anyone who has had to finally sit down and be honest with themselves about what they really want. Even if that means reorganizing where your “career” sits on your life-long priority list.
