223 - May Or - Dancing on Tour While Earning a Doctorate in Psychology

In episode 223 host Galit Friedlander and guest May Or (professional dancer with touring and commercial credits and a doctorate in psychology) discuss what it took for May to complete her PhD while working as a dancer, the pressure and perfectionism many dancers experience, and how social media has changed the way dancers are seen in the industry. They also talk about May’s experience growing up as an immigrant navigating language barriers, balancing rehearsals with doctoral coursework, and her perspective on why dancers can pursue more than one path.
