Welcome Back to diary of a dance teacher, season 3!

This season we are diversifying the podcast and I want to move away from just discussing dance as dance is a huge part of our community but what better way to learn and create awareness whilst we are all stood still. Knowledge is power and listening to others is so integral to learning, growing and becoming the best version of yourself!

Today I have the absolutely pleasure of chatting to Cambell Kenneford. We talk about Cambell's incredible inspiring dream to open a charity to help the transgender community and to help not only the transgender community but to unite us all. We are stronger together and having social media at our finger tips now and we can be a part of a community, a part of learning and accepting everyone.

We talk about Cambell appearing on Gender Quake being a positive voice for the transgender community. We discuss sexuality, using instagram to help and inspire other LGBTQ+ and how to educate everyone about identity. We discuss sexuality fluidity, accepting and embracing who you are being open minded, Being yourself, and being proud of who you are whilst having a great support network around you. How important it is to surround yourself around people who are accepting, supportive and we talk about having a great friendship group who always look out for you.

We talk about bullying, trolling and how you have to be resilient and stand up for who you!

Lets support and create awareness for the trans community as we want to support all genders and everyone should embrace their authenticity, be different, own it and see it as a positive!

Please take a look at the charity’s as there is so much information now which is wonderful to finally see that all genders are celebrated, along with sexuality and accepting others for being who they are!

This podcast episode is one of the most important podcasts that I have recorded throughout all three seasons, in true international women's style, this is all about our flow, being a woman and taking control of our female power, our cycle, our periods.

Periods aren't spoken about enough in the education system, over the dinner table, with all genders and even amongst us as women. Why don't we celebrate what our bodies can do and why do we complain about the pain and almost feel ashamed to talk about when we are on our period.

This is something I discuss openly with the students as it is a fact that you cannot perform to the same standard when you are going through certain phases in your cycle.

I have learnt so much from Vianney Leigh in my own personal journey as going through my life with sporadic periods, lack of periods, painful periods, PMS and more I was told by the doctors I wasn't having periods due to 'hormones'. This was frustrating for me and I felt I was constantly dismissed and felt like a part of me was missing.

I found Vianney Leigh's instagram page in the first lockdown and my periods are back as I have followed all of her guidance and stuck to her brilliant advice. Vianney's outlook, guidance, wisdom and approach is refreshing and this should be a part of the syllabus in all schools to coincide with sex education.

Vianney Leigh is a very strong, inspiration and her work is so empowering and should be celebrated by us all as Vianney Leighs coaching brings our periods into alignment in the most simplest way.

We talk about how to -

Track your cycle!

Track your moods!

Track your emotions and how you feel!

Take control of your periods and lets live around our complete menstrual cycle. Lets put those myths to bed and start to move into a phase in our lives where we can celebrate our bodies.

You are a woman, you are strong, you can do anything and periods should never be a hindrance. Our bodies are sacred, beautiful and more having a period is a sign of a healthy, happy body and mind.

We talk about how to get your cycles back in line, how and why we should track our cycles (I use the health App cycle tracking which is on your iPhone), why we should track our moods as we all experience different mood changes during our full complete cycle. How we need to be kinder to our bodies when we are approaching certain phases.

It is the most incredible chat and everyone should listen, learn and embrace the women in their household, who we are surrounded by and lets celebrate being a woman!
