Misty Copeland, A Clumsy Ballerina? That Didn't Stop Her From Being Great!
Description
She’s a world-famous ballerina, a bestselling author, and a history-maker as the first Black woman Principal Dancer at American Ballet Theatre—but Misty Copeland just told me she’s… clumsy. And yet, that didn’t stop her from becoming great. Listen to this episode and come and get some of this Black girl magic!
In this episode of BACKtalk, Misty opens up about her new children’s book Bunheads, Act 2: The Dance of Courage, how she’s raising brave kids, and what it really means to shine—even when life knocks you out of the spotlight. From stage to motherhood, Misty gets real about resilience, girl power, and how to keep dreaming through disappointment.
If you’ve ever had to tell your child, “This isn't your time to shine,” this conversation will speak to your soul.
