It was such a joy to reconnect with my beautiful friend Elisabeth Mather for episode 131, part 4 of our Belhaven Dance Alumni Series! Elisabeth is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and Certified Substance Abuse Counselor. With a background as a professional dancer and educator, she brings a unique and impactful perspective to her work as a Counselor.

In our conversation, we dive into Elisabeth's journey—from her roots in Hawaii to her pursuit of dance at Belhaven University, her transition from ballet to modern dance, and her recent shift into fully focusing on counseling. We also chat about the complexities of navigating identity, the vital role of the artist in society, and the power of listening and curiosity in our relationships. I love Elisabeth's encouragement to live authentically and that we each have a meaningful place in this world.

Several other Belhaven Dance Alumni have shared their stories on the podcast over the years, so we've gathered all the episodes together in a playlist for you! Check out the ⁠⁠playlist on Spotify⁠⁠!
