In this episode of Call Sheet Confessions, host Mia LePage sits down with choreographer, creative director, and mentor Jona Biddle (aka The Jonah Show) for a powerful, full-circle conversation about growth, mentorship, and trusting your path.

Jonah was the first dance teacher Mia ever took class from in New York City — and years later, the two reconnect on the podcast to reflect on how that early belief, confidence, and guidance shaped Mia’s creative journey.

Together, they dive into Jonah’s story growing up in Atlantic City, discovering dance through music and rhythm, and building a career that spans choreography, teaching, youth mentorship, and creative leadership. Jonah opens up about the realities of working in the dance industry, the importance of planning over impulse, and why staying grounded matters more than chasing quick success.

Throughout the episode, Mia and Jonah discuss:
• Full-circle mentor moments and creative growth
• Building confidence as a young dancer
• Transitioning from performer to leader
• Why energy and professionalism matter on set
• The realities of teaching, touring, and long production days
• Social media, vulnerability, and being real as a creative
