Summary

Check out the full podcasts on my website! http://www.andrewdeast.com/podcast What an unbelievable conversation I have for you guys today. It was my pleasure to sit down and talk with Kathryn Morgan and speak about her journey with ballet and the many challenges she faced. Kathryn was at the peak of her career, she performed in one of the most successful shows in the ballet business. Unfortunately, she learned of a very serious thyroid issue that forced her to take a break from ballet. After taking some time to heal, Kathryn slowly began to build an online following that encouraged her to begin doing ballet again. Kathryn is now back doing ballet and absolutely crushing it - she performs with the Miami Ballet program, one of the top in the business. Tune in to hear about Kathryn's comeback story and all the amazing things she's doing today. I am also excited to announce my partnership with Himalaya- the best podcasting app around.
