Episode 10: Nutrition, Mindset and Scheduling to Maintain Vitality as a Pole Dancer and Athlete

Welcome to Fit, Fierce, and Fearless, the podcast by GenX Pole Arts! I’m Zen (Nancy Adzentovich), here to celebrate women over 40 finding strength, confidence, and community through pole dancing.‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ ‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

In this episode, we sit down with the incredible Chimeka to talk about the leap from traditional work to pursuing passion-driven careers. We reflect on the fears, excitement, and growth that come with making a big life shift and how finding joy in the process makes it all worthwhile. ‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

We also dive into the power of movement as a healing modality—how dance and pole fitness provide not just physical benefits but also mental, emotional, and spiritual well-being. Whether it’s Gen X Pole Arts, Via Chakra, or other studio communities, we explore how movement brings people together and helps us stay present in an increasingly distracted world. ‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍
