In this wide-ranging, vulnerable conversation, dancer, actor, and father Adam Garcia joins host Scott Schwenk for a deep dive into self-worth, inner child healing, and the surprising power of making peace with our many identities. From the stage to the stillness, Adam reflects on choosing growth through curiosity, imperfection, and connection. A rich journey through the river of life—with a few good laughs along the way.

Adam Garcia - Actor, Dancer, Leader

After training at Kerry & Glenn Dumbrells’ Capital Performance Studios in

Sydney, David Atkins & Dein Perry kindly offered Adam a slight detour from the

pursuit of biological sciences by taking him touring around Australia with the

musical Hot Shoe Shuffle. The show carried him to London where he was lucky to have a varied

and expansive career including 12 West-End musicals & plays.

He has appeared in numerous films and TV shows such as Coyote Ugly, Flight of The Conchords, Afterlife Of The Party & The Serpent Queen.

Most recently Adam has completed Johnathan Church’s production of 42nd Street as Julian

Marsh, a new film The Performance about vaudeville tap dancers’ experience in 1937 Berlin and also achieved writing, co-choreographing & co-directing the Irish & Tap dance show Emerald Storm that completed its first tour of the UK.
