Ep. 65 - Finding Purpose in Ballet While Living With a Rare Brain Tumor - Interview with Adult Ballet Dancer, Natalie Walsh da Silva
What happens when life throws you a curveball and you meet it with resilience and a little bit of ballet? In this episode, we're joined by Natalie, who discovered her passion for ballet after being diagnosed with a rare brain tumor that required her to give up surfing. We talk about the joy (and challenges) of starting ballet as an adult, the power of dance to bring purpose to our lives, and how she’s learned to embrace challenges, both on and off the dance floor. Whether you’re an adult ballet dancer, curious about starting ballet, or just need a dose of inspiration, this episode is for you. So grab your coffee and let's get into it!
