Rhinestones and Rants
Welcome to Rhinestones & Rants, where the glitz of the dance world meets the real talk of industry and a dance mom who lived it every day. This podcast isn’t just about perfect pirouettes and dazzling costumes—it’s about the raw, unfiltered journey of raising dancers, navigating the competitive scene, and balancing the chaos of life beyond the studio.
Each episode dives into the heart of industry secrets and behind every amazing dancer is dance mom life with humor, honesty, and a little bit of sparkle. From the backstage battles over costume rhinestones to the emotional rollercoaster of competition season, no topic is off-limits. Expect lively discussions, behind-the-scenes stories, expert interviews, and listener call-ins where real moms share their experiences—the good, the bad, and the tutu-clad tantrums.
