What’s it actually like being married to someone who owns a dance school?

In this episode, I’m joined by my husband for a very honest (and probably slightly dangerous 😂) conversation about what it’s like living alongside a dance teacher, business owner and someone who apparently never really switches off.

From late-night parent messages and endless WhatsApp notifications to dance-school admin creeping into family time, unexpected expenses and the classic “I’ve just got one quick thing to do…” — we’re talking about the reality of being married to someone whose business is also their passion.

We chat about the things he finds hilarious, the things he still doesn’t understand after all these years, what it’s been like watching AGSOD grow over 20 years, and the impact running a dance school has had on our family and our relationship.

Expect honesty, a few home truths, plenty of laughs… and possibly some things I’ll regret asking him afterwards! 😂
