Dance powerhouse Yvonne Ng joins Lisa Hopkins to explore the art of living in the moment through movement, creativity and mindfulness. Their conversation weaves through decades of friendship and dance collaboration to reveal insights about authenticity, presence and embracing uncertainty.

• From entrepreneurs in university dance programs to established artists, Lisa and Yvonne reflect on their 35+ year friendship
• Movement described as "the largest and most important language we have" for understanding ourselves and our relationship to the world
• Embracing imposter syndrome as evidence you're challenging yourself in meaningful ways
• Living in the moment isn't always serene meditation – it includes accepting "monkey mind," doubts, and all emotional states
• The importance of private downtime and setting boundaries around rest and rejuvenation
• Learning from mistakes without letting them define you
• The wisdom of awareness without judgment – creating space between stimulus and response
• Finding gratitude in everyday experiences like "eating breakfast" and "flushing toilets"

✨ Tune in to rediscover what it means to hold space for others, stay present with yourself, and find flow in unexpected places.
