There have been TONS of positive changes for adult Irish dancers in the last decade, but there's always room for improvement. What changes would YOU like to see made in the future? This week's guest is former Irish dancer and founder of Feis Fit, Jeanne Weller!

Thanks for being patient with me for taking a week off to focus on my new job! Super happy to be back this week with Megan Moloney, a TMRF who started as an adult Irish dancer with the Culkin School and now owns the Bluegrass Ceili Academy in Lexington, KY. Enjoy!

What a history-making week for adult Irish dancers! I was fortunate enough to talk to quite a few dancers at Nationals on Tuesday while they were waiting for results. Also, this week, I'm excited to talk to Erin Weiford-McMcaster, a seamstress who has started repurposing older Irish dance dresses into new, modern dresses.

This week, we're talking about your goals AND what you're nervous about for Nationals in Phoenix next week. Our guest is Dr. Curtis Gale-Dyer, an osteopathic physician from Lexington, Kentucky, who started Irish dancing when he was 40-years-old.

As the saying goes, "Adulting is hard!" And it's even harder when you're trying to balance work, bills, kids, pets, and a hobby like Irish dance. What do you wish that YOU could manage better?

Our guest this week is Julia Topper. She's an adult Irish dancer who is still competing while pregnant, as well as an ethnomusicologist and a writer for the Feis app. You can see a video of her dancing while pregnant HERE.

Celebrating Pride Month by talking to Cas Urban, who has created the Divergent Dance Project. They danced as a teenager and saw the need for LGBT+ representation and costuming in the Irish dance world, and went after it! You can get in touch with him at divergentirishdance@gmail.com.

Also, talking about your favorite and least favorite Irish dances - some of you REALLY hate the hornpipe, myself included!

We all have a dream solo dress in the back of our minds; some of us have been privileged enough to see them come to fruition, others will have to wait a bit longer. What does YOUR dream solo dress look like? We also talk to Ana Neve, a counselor for Camp Rince Ceol and the creator of the Dancing Minds Workshop, which you can read more about and sign up for here.

Regrets are no fun, but we all have things we wish we could go back and change. What's your biggest dance regret? This week's guest is Sarah Waters, an adult Irish dancer at Scoil Ui Ruairc in Ireland.
