#390: A Dance With Devotion
When the curtain falls, the real story begins. Plus, record-breakers, ad overload, and industry shake-ups—podcasting’s next era is here.
Heads up: This week’s podcast recommendation discusses image-based sexual abuse and includes language that some listeners may find distressing. Please take care when listening.
What does dedication look like?
Ask a coach, and they’ll call it relentless practice.
Ask a soldier, and they’ll recognize the discipline of repetition.
Ask a poet, and they’ll write about beauty born from pain.
Ask a ballet dancer, and they’ll simply say, again.
Few art forms compare to the art of dance. The dedication to the craft is clear even to those outside the community, but the sacrifices some dancers make can become a point of exploitation—especially when people prey on power imbalances and those willing to do whatever it takes for their art.
