I'm so excited to have my friend and coach, Kristina Knapp, back on the show. In last week's episode, I mentioned my new show, 'The Breakthrough,' which premieres on October 30th. Kristina is featured in the pilot episode. I connected with Kristina, and we discussed the show, her experience, and her breakthroughs.
Kristina is very confident. However, being confident enough to learn and present a dance performance was a challenge she chose to work through. We talk about the challenges that arise from last-minute changes. We also share some behind-the-scenes experiences and discuss what having a true breakthrough feels like.
