Back from holiday, full of ideas… but second-guessing everything? You’re not alone.

In this energising and heart-to-heart episode, Stacey and Rhee take on one of the hardest parts of leadership as a dance studio owner—sticking to your vision, even when it ruffles a few feathers. Whether you're restructuring your comp team, changing your schedule, or raising fees, someone will have an opinion. The question is—are you confident enough to move forward anyway?

With stories, practical tips, and a healthy dose of dance teacher truth bombs, this episode is your reminder that your studio doesn’t run on parent approval—it runs on your passion and leadership.

Key Takeaways:

• Confidence is the secret sauce. You had a vision—don’t let other people’s doubts drown it.

• Mrs. Smith isn’t forever. You’re building for the next five years, not next week’s car park conversation.

• Backpacks full of resentment are heavy. If you’re exhausted, it’s time to let go of what no longer fits.

• Your vision deserves better marketing. Speak it clearly. Write it down. Share it with conviction.

• Who you surround yourself with matters. Not everyone is meant to come with you to the next level.

This Episode is for You If:

• You're toying with a big change—but worried how parents or staff might react.

• You’ve ever lost sleep over feedback from a loud (but temporary) voice in your studio.

• You’re ready to reclaim your leadership, your energy, and your studio’s future.

• You know it’s time for a reset—and you’re looking for a loving nudge to do it.

Welcome to “The Season of Impending Doom”—that anxious few weeks before classes kick off when registration numbers aren’t quite where we want them, and every studio owner starts asking: “Is this the year it all falls apart?”

In this refreshingly honest and practical episode, Stacey and Rhee tackle the universal pre-season panic and offer up thoughtful, strategy-rich advice for turning worry into action. From knowing when to breathe (and stop doom-scrolling) to how to target your marketing for real results, this episode is packed with insights you can implement today.

Key Takeaways:

• It’s not just you. Many studio owners are still waiting for last-minute enrolments. (September and October are huge!)

• Ditch the vague dance promos. Be specific in your marketing. Promote exact class times and openings for better results.

• Less friction, more action. Long forms and decision fatigue are costing you leads. Keep your landing pages short and sweet.

• Let panic fuel progress. Instead of spiralling, use your nervous energy to fine-tune your strategies and get creative.

• Community is everything. Don’t suffer in silence. Reach out, compare notes, and find support in like-minded circles.

This Episode is for You If:

• You’re in that awkward limbo between planning and term starting—and the phone isn’t ringing yet.

• You’re ready to shift from “doom mode” to strategy mode.

• You want actionable advice for getting those last few enrolments over the line.

• You need to be reminded: You’re not alone. You’ve got this.
