    It's been over a year since COVID began and shut us down, and by now, as artists and performers, we're probably very well aware of the importance of human connection. Don't you miss seeing people regularly, dancing with people, and just hanging out with your buddies? Today's guest, the one and only Elissa Brock, speaks on what motivates her to continue dancing through it all — even in the darkest of times — and how she misses connecting with people on stage and even in studios. “Closeness and proximity of being around other people is a cohesive feeling that makes you feel a part of something that's bigger than you and any other people. The art of dancing and any art in general is what gives meaning to life.” - Elissa Don't miss today's very special episode for your #ThrivingThursday! --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/liezel-marie-lorico/support
