A podcast for parents who are raising teenage dancers. In this episode of THE JUSTIN & INEKE PODCAST, we break down the shift from "I am scared" to "I am a scared person"—and why our "be positive" instincts might be making it worse.

We share a practical, research-backed 3-sentence script you can use in the car tonight to validate your child's fear without letting it stop them.

Key Topics Covered:

• Why "You'll be fine" is the wrong thing to say.
• The difference between in-the-moment fear and "not-good-enough" fear.
• The power of "Affect Labeling" (Naming the emotion).
• A specific script for the changing room and the car park.
