Summary

This week’s episode is for the dancer preparing for a high-pressure audition, especially if you are heading into the Radio City Rockettes audition and feeling like everything is on the line. I share the four things I would focus on in the week leading up to a big audition, based on my experience auditioning for and becoming a Rockette. I talk about why this is not the time to push harder, but instead to maintain what you have already built, how to choose classes that build confidence rather than break it down, and why your energy walking into the room matters just as much as your technique. I also walk you through how to visualize the audition day so you are mentally prepared for every moment, and how leading with gratitude can completely shift your experience. If you are feeling the pressure, the nerves, or the weight of “what if,” this episode is here to ground you, refocus you, and remind you that you are more ready than you think.
