This week, Leonora is thrilled to be joined by dancer, choreographer, and movement director, Ayesha Orange. Ayesha assisted Ryan Heffington on his Emmy-award-winning choreography for HBO’s hit series Euphoria, has worked extensively with the legendary Nina McNeely and has danced onstage at the Emmys, the Oscars, with artists like Mariah Carey, Bette Midler, Pink, and Usher, and in over twenty films and over sixty television shows. She and Leonora discuss how important Ayesha’s village is as she raises her son as a single mother, how they are trying to raise resilient kids, being GenX parents, and the real ins and outs of being a working artist. This episode goes deep and is full of warmth and laughter and wisdom and connection.
