Dame Tracey Emin is BACK on The GWA Podcast! Hailed for her paintings, videos, textiles, neons, writing, sculptures, installations, and now, her extraordinary work as an educator, raising the next generation of artists at TKE Studios in Margate, right by where we are recording today – Emin has been at the forefront of art for more than four decades. Born in Croydon, and raised in Margate with her twin brother Paul, Emin had a complex child- and teenagehood, which she details in her part-memoir, Strangeland – as well as in works such as Why I Never Became a Dancer or Mad Tracey From Margate. Officially leaving school aged 15, Emin went to Maidstone College of Art, and onto the Royal College – where she won over her interviewees with her impressive sketch book selection. In 1993, she kept a shop in Brick Lane, titled “The Shop”, which ended with a party on her 30th birthday, and that year had her first exhibition – at a then-new gallery called White Cube. On view were objects she had collected over the years – from teenage diaries to toys, paintings, drawings and unsent letters. She titled it My Major Retrospective, just in case she never had another show. However, this was just the start. Emin has since exhibited all over the world – most recently the Yale Center for British Art, where I saw her work a floor above JMW Turner, getting me to realise the painterly relationship between the two artists – despite working 250 years apart – from how Emin plays with moods akin to his stormy weathers, to how the bodies in her paintings evoke his mountainous landscapes, with vein-like rivers. As well as Palazzo Strozzi, highlighting Emin's relationship to the history and iconography in Italian art – such as life, death and the crucifixion, to the decay of the body and enlightenment through spiritual (and sexual) quests. It challenged the city's history, revealing the rawness of a woman's perspective in a culture that so rarely addressed it. Now, we meet in Margate on the occasion of the largest – and perhaps the most important – exhibition in her life so far, “A Second Life” opening at Tate Modern on 27 February, in the very city where her artistic life thrived. But it's also a show taking place after monumental personal shifts, such as her mother's passing in 2016, surviving cancer in 2020, the opening of her free studio-based art school in 2023, but also when the world couldn't be more excited for Emin. She has said of this show to be a “true celebration of living” and I can't wait to find out more…

The Springfield School Board is a mess. One board member left a few weeks ago. After getting rave reviews last year, the superintendent resigned last week, and there's a lot of secrecy and questions about the board right now. We talk with the lone board member who seems to be on the outs with the others. Plus, Oregon's death tax is horrible. There are efforts to change that, but until that happens, what do you do? An expert talks about it.

An Oregon comedian is surprised, but not shocked, when two "Friends" and co-comedians dropped out of a show over political differences. They didn't just pull out; they publicly called him the usual "Nazi" name. We're so done with this immature behavior; we thought he should come on and tell his story. Oh, and the show will go on, without the crybabies.

I'm so sick of the lying and deception. I spoke with a woman today whose husband is an ICE agent. She was telling me online how tough it is. I'm trying to get her to come on a podcast. But her story irked me, and that's what you're going to hear in this episode.

This week on DanceSpeak, I sit down with Brian 'Footwork' Green, a master teacher and influential figure in street and club dance culture whose impact spans generations. Recorded live in August 2025, this episode captures Brian's unfiltered thoughts on musicality, lineage, and what often gets misunderstood about street dance. We explore competition versus convention culture, the realities of the dance economy, and the difference between who you are and the artistic name you move under. Brian speaks honestly about off-beat dancing, “auto-tuned” movement, teaching, trends, and what gets lost when dance drifts away from the heart. The conversation also touches on race, representation, and identity in dance spaces—layered, nuanced, and rooted in lived experience rather than soundbites. Insightful, funny, challenging, and deeply grounded in culture, this episode is for dancers who love dance enough to think about it, question it, and keep it alive.

Interview Date: December 14th, 2025.In this episode of Business of Dance, Menina sits down with veteran performer and powerhouse industry staple Sarah Mitchell, who joins the conversation nine months pregnant and still glowing (literally). Sarah takes us back to her beginnings in Western Massachusetts—starting dance at two-and-a-half, falling in love with NYC after seeing the Rockettes at age nine, and boldly moving to New York City with limited money but unstoppable determination. From becoming a Patriots cheerleader in high school (and earning a Super Bowl ring) to landing the Knicks City Dancers through a Good Morning America public vote, Sarah breaks down how dance teams can be a career-launching network, training ground, and built-in community for dancers moving to major markets.Sarah shares a full-circle story that shaped her career: after moving to LA with no plan besides “I have to be here,” she booked American Gladiators—only for the dance cast to be cut. That “loss” led directly to her booking a Jell-O commercial, meeting Jerry Slaughter, and soon finding herself dancing with Christina Aguilera—the same artist she once watched from the audience dreaming of being on stage. From there, the episode dives into Sarah's long-running work with major artists and productions, including Christina Aguilera (spanning roughly 2007/2008 to 2024), Britney Spears' Vegas residency, Burlesque, and the realities of auditioning, touring, and navigating the emotional highs and lows of a freelance performance career—especially as life expands into marriage and motherhood.Shownotes:(0:00) – Welcome(7:01) – Full intro: Sarah Mitchell's career highlights(11:40) – Early beginnings: Western MA, Rockettes inspiration(12:30) – Patriots cheerleaders, Super Bowl ring, early confidence(13:17) – Knicks City Dancers + Good Morning America vote(17:01) – Cross-country move to LA, starting from scratch(20:26) – American Gladiators canceled → pivotal career shift(22:28) – Booking Christina Aguilera through Jerry Slaughter(30:15) – Burlesque stories: doubles, endurance, golden time(50:37) – Q&A wisdom: preparation, mindset, longevity, balanceBiography:A dancer and choreographer with over 20 years of experience, Mitchell has toured and performed with artists such as Christina Aguilera, Katy Perry, Pitbull and Dua Lipa. She co-starred on the E! Network's The Dance Scene and has had featured appearances in films such as Burlesque, La La Land, and Music and Lyrics. Sarah performed with Britney Spears in her Las Vegas residency “Piece of Me” for five years, and has appeared on numerous television and award shows including The Voice, Dancing with the Stars, American Housewife and Oprah. For the last decade, Sarah has worked with the NFL and choreographed for the NBA, including multiple NBA All Star Game performances. She recently worked as movement director for Olivia Rodrigo, Christina Aguilera's new perfume campaign and Aveda.

Jack Tibbetts is new to politics. He's a small farmer who owns a winery and raises cattle. He loves Oregon, sees what's going on, and wants to do something about it. He doesn't intend to make politics his career. He's a little old-fashioned in thinking; perhaps you serve for a couple of terms and limit yourself. I think you'll enjoy this refreshing candidate.

America's election system is a fraudulent mess. The only people who don't want to fix it are those who benefit from the fakery. The man you are about to meet is creating his own army of sorts. He teaches everyday folks how to find voter fraud. He says in Oregon, the whole thing is about to blow up.

Honey is God's gift to man. The guy you are about to hear is an expert from Portland, Oregon. Expect to learn the health benefits of honey, what it helps with, and we'll talk about "Mad" honey, too. The way bees live, all of it.

Have you ever felt like your voice was silenced - like parts of you were slowly muted to keep the peace, stay safe, or fit into who you were told you should be? So many women grow up learning to suppress their feelings, their anger, their creativity and their truth. Over time, that silencing can show up as low self-worth, unhealthy relationships, burnout, or even physical illness. Today's guest, Steph Bruno-Newton, knows this journey deeply. Steph is the host of the Can I Get a Refill? podcast, a former dancer and singer, a new mum, and a passionate advocate for women reclaiming their voices and creating lives that feel expansive, expressive and nourishing. Her story is one of resilience, courage and creative rebirth. In this episode, Steph shares how years of silencing - shaped by relationships, trauma and societal expectations - led her to disconnect from herself, and how finding her voice became the key to healing, self-trust and finally filling her own cup. As a fellow podcaster, I loved this conversation. There's something incredibly powerful about women using their voices - not just to be heard, but to help other women feel less alone, more validated, and more empowered to step into the driver's seat of their own lives. This episode is honest, tender, and deeply inspiring. We also explore Steph's singing journey, including auditioning for The Voice and appearing on Millionaire Hot Seat. Key Episode Takeaways: Finding your voice after being silenced can change everything - your health, your relationships and your sense of self Creating space for self-expression is one of the most powerful ways to fill your cup Sharing our stories helps other women feel seen, heard and less alone Even the most painful experiences can become portals to growth and purpose Choosing to look for meaning doesn't dismiss the pain - it transforms it About the Guest: Steph Bruno-Newton is a former Dancer, Singer (on brief motherhood pause), Writer, Podcast Host, Manifestor and most importantly, Mum to an 18month old.

Jayda Hazelett didn't follow the traditional pre-professional boarding school path to a ballet company. The Ballet Hartford corps member grew up in Fort Wayne, Indiana, trained locally at Project Ballet, attended summer intensives, and chose to pursue college at Indiana University's Jacobs School of Music before entering the professional world. In this Dancer Story, Jayda shares why she chose to stay home for training, how summer intensives supplemented her education, and what the college ballet experience gave her. We also discuss the challenges of pursuing a professional career, the importance of mentorship, pivotal moments that shaped her path, mental health in ballet, and her future aspirations including dreams of Broadway. After graduating in 2024, Jayda joined Ballet Hartford as an apprentice and was recently promoted to the corps for the 2025-2026 season. If you're wondering whether staying local or choosing the college route means giving up on a professional career, Jayda's story proves there's more than one path forward.

You're working hard. I see you. You're in class every day, taking extra privates, rehearsing your solo, pushing yourself… and yet you're still not seeing the results you want.In this episode, we're talking about the difference between working hard and working with direction — and why so many dancers burn out, plateau, or lose confidence even though they're doing “all the right things.”I break down:Why more classes isn't always the answerHow vague goals like “better turns” or “better facials” are actually holding you backThe importance of identifying the real problem before trying to fix everythingAnd how to create a targeted strategy that fits your goals — not your teammate's, not your studio's, not Instagram'sIf you've ever felt frustrated, stuck, or like you're trying everything with no real progress… this episode is for you.Because working harder isn't the solution. Working smarter is.Support the showGot a question or story you'd like to share?

In episode 221, host Galit Friedlander and guest Kim Holmes (widely respected director, choreographer, dance educator) explore the roots of house and hip-hop culture through lived experience, mentorship, and time spent inside New York City's party and club scenes before these styles became widely visible. Kim shares her journey into dance, discovering house at a young age, and learning directly with pioneers like Marjory Smarth during a formative era that shaped how she moves, teaches, and thinks about longevity. Together, Galit and Kim reflect on what it meant to come up in spaces where culture was built in real time—long before social media or conventions—and how being “the it kids” back then came with both opportunity and responsibility. The conversation also moves into technique, recovery, listening to the body, trusting timing, and how mindset and intuition quietly guide long careers in dance. Originally recorded in 2019, this episode feels especially relevant today as dancers revisit foundations, lineage, and what it truly means to sustain a life in dance beyond trends.
