Motherhood and Dance

Host: @mrjgraham

Guests: @patiencegop, @nikkitrow and @miss.muldoon

In this episode @mrjgraham speaks with @patiencegop, @nikkitrow and @miss.muldoon about being mothers in the dance industry. We explore the idea of there being a stigma around the notion of motherhood within dance and what it means for a dancer physically, mentally as well as professionally. Our guests talk us through their experiences from the early stages of pregnancy to the post birth return to work and the challenges they faced. We hear about changes they would like to see made, particularly in people's attitudes towards mothers in the professional dance world. A big thanks to our 3 guests for sharing so much of their own experiences and as with all our topics there is always more to be said but hopefully this gets the conversation moving forwards.
