This week’s episode features a very special guest — Sarah’s husband, Nephi. A former ballet dancer with a business degree, Nephi shares his unconventional path from ballet to working with companies like Pixar and Disney, before founding his own company — where his work earned two Academy Awards and an Emmy. After building a successful career outside the studio, he ultimately found his way back to dance as an executive director of a dance organization. It’s a full-circle conversation about leaving the stage, redefining success, and discovering that dance never really lets you go.
