EP.37 - The Fear of Taking a Leap of Faith ft. Brittany Caldwell
Brittany “Britt ” Caldwell is a Dancer, Dance Teacher & Choreographer, Cycling Instructor at CycleBar, and Athlete Performance Specialist. To add to her many other titles, talents, and credits, she is also a dancer for the Honeybees, the official dance team for the Charlotte Hornets of the NBA.
She is South Carolina born and raised currently residing in Charlotte, North Carolina. She has a B.S. in Chemical Engineering from University of South Carolina & a Masters in Exercise Science Focused on Performance Enhancement, Injury Prevention & Rehabilitation.
If it’s not already evident from this impressive list, Britt has a passion for helping people become the best version of themselves and guiding our youth to become who their hearts desire. Her philosophy? When you focus on being your personal best, your only competition lies within.
Her program, PerformX Dance, is a conditioning and training program for dancers by dancers to prevent injuries and improve performance. This year, the PerformX Dance Training Course will launch for dance teachers to learn how to coach and train dancers in ways that will keep their tricks strong, joints healthy, and jumps high throughout their dancing career.
In this episode, Britt opens up about her past struggles with fear, and how the decision to leave her cushy job in corporate America to pursue what she refers to as a “passion chase”, lead her to realize what she was truly placed on this earth to do! We talk about just how important support from your parents is during those times of dynamic change and purposeful displacement. We talk about the relationships between belief and fear, and how fear has both hindered and pushed her as a dreamer, a dancer, and even now as an entrepreneur. And finally, we discuss how sometimes, God is just waiting for us to make a move and get out of His way for us to receive the guidance and blessings He’s stored up for us. It’s like my grandfather Lain used to say, “Sometimes you have to get off your knees and hustle.”
Britt is a fun-loving, genuine spirit who was a blast to sit down and talk with! We’ve since become good friends and supporters of one another from this interview, and I guarantee you’ll be inspired by her joviality, her wisdom, and her genuine zeal for life!
