39. Is Your Passion Making You Better or Weighing You Down?

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">I feel like in the dance industry we use the word passion to mean your performance on the floor, to be believable, and truly go for it. But honestly, it’s a lot more than that.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">If you have a passion for dance, I have some important news for you to consider: your passion for dance may be hurting you.  In this episode, I share some of the psychological research on passion to highlight the fact that there are two different types of passion: harmonious passion and obsessive passion. I’ve bet you’ve seen both types of passion in the dancers you work with, and maybe even in yourself, and understanding the difference can go a long way to ensure a career filled with joy.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">__________</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Did you enjoy today’s episode?
