Friends, today we are so lucky to have none other than the Rachelle Rak on the show.

For those who might not know, Rachelle launched her Broadway journey at age 17 in the musical Cats. She then continued on with Fosse, Thou Shalt Not, Catch Me If You Can, Dirty Rotten Scoundrels, Oklahoma, and more!

She was also featured in Every Little Step, a documentary giving insights into the casting process of the A Chorus Line 2006 Broadway revival.

Rachelle's TV presence includes being a celebrity judge on Abby's Ultimate Dance Challenge and a choreographer for Dance Moms.

Currently, she's an associate choreographer on Boop, a Broadway-bound musical under Tony Award winner Jerry Mitchell, following a successful out-of-town tryout in Chicago.

But we didn't ask Rachelle on the show just because of her amazing resume…

She embodies resilience, confidence, motivation, and inspiration, and she’s full of joy and optimism.

I know you'll leave today's show feeling empowered to be unapologetically yourself, embracing exactly who you are, and proudly showcasing your uniqueness.
