Description
Dr. Dan interviews former ballet dancer Alice Robb about ballet and her new book DON’T THINK, DEAR: On Loving and Leaving Ballet. Dr. Dan and Alice’s honest conversation about body image, perfectionism, diet culture, and more will resonate with all parents - not just dance parents.In 2023, ballet is one of the most popular extra-curricular activities for young girls, and for some, it will take root as a lifelong obsession. Few will ever dance professionally but they will be shaped by the life lessons learned in the studio: discipline, silence, submission, and more. Dr. Dan and Alice explore how researching and writing her book (part memoir, part journalistic reporting) can help girls and women of all ages because it explores unrealistic body expectations, disordered eating, body dysmorphia, how to succeed in a world where men are still (mostly) in charge, being judged solely on your appearance, social media, self-esteem, and ultimately helping the next generation of women survive in a culture that perpetuates myths about beauty, worth, and success.Learn more about Alice by visiting her website: www.alicerobb.com.Email your parenting questions to Dr. Dan podcast@drdanpeters.com (we might answer on a future episode).Follow us @parentfootprintpodcast (Instagram, Facebook) and @drdanpeters (Twitter).Listen, follow, and leave us a review on Amazon Music, Apple Podcasts, Wondery, or wherever you like to listen!Don’t forget, you can hear every episode one week early and ad-free by subscribing to Wondery+ in the @WonderyMedia App.For more information:www.exactlyrightmedia.com www.drdanpeters.comFor podcast merch:www.exactlyrightmedia.com/parent-footprint-shopSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
