Ari trained at the School of American Ballet, performed with New York City Ballet, and now pours her passion into helping young dancers with technique, competitions, auditions, and—most importantly—mindfulness and confidence. We have such a beautiful conversation about performance, pressure, and preparation—not just for kids in competitive roles, but for adults navigating high-pressure spaces too. Ari shares so much wisdom on mindset, joy, and the practices that keep us grounded when the stakes feel high. We talk about: The pressure that comes with performing and how it shows up in kids and adults The role mindset plays in competing, creating, and showing up as your best self How to prepare in a way that builds confidence instead of anxiety Lessons from the dance world that apply to everyday life and business Ways to bring joy, gratitude, and confidence back into your craft (whatever it may be) This one will give you so much to reflect on, whether you’re raising kids who perform, or you’re navigating your own version of the spotlight. 🔗 Connect with Ari Bliss: Growth, Grace, and Gratitude Podcast   Instagram:  @growthandgracemindset Website Youtube:  @BalletDaily --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------   Connect with Katherine: 📩 Have questions or feedback?
