In Episode 8, we interview dancer, choreographer, teacher, and professional hair stylist and barber, Hunter McCabe from Tucson, Arizona. This is actually one of my favorite conversations thus far on the podcast. Hunter talks about his time in LA pursuing dance and industry work and gives insight into the ins and outs of the networking, balancing gigs and getting into the scene. We talk about finding your voice and niche as an artist, how he got into teaching and how he approaches his teaching practice and sharing his creative ideas. We talk about developing your sense of self and identity and staying true to that in an industry that can be challenging, using your platform as a positive influence, comparison syndrome (don't if this is an actual syndrome, but ya'll know what we are talking about am I right?), and lastly, we talk about taking the time to become clear and intentional in your artistry. Hunter is a great storyteller and I learned so much from him, we hope you enjoy the episode! Follow Hunter on IG: hmccabe333
