#158 | [Interview] All things inclusivity with Ali Phillips

In this episode, Ali and I have an amazing chat about inclusivity, running multiple dance studios (and one on the other side of the world). I left the interview feeling totally empowered and energised! Ali Phillips began her career after founding Bust a Move Dance (BAMD), one of Australia’s first inclusive dance companies for children, teens and adults with disabilities in 2009. Gaining unparalleled experience in the Dance, Education and Business spaces, while also establishing herself as a respected leader, Ali has created an exciting and vibrant career, taking her across the world. Currently living in Toronto and specializing as an Embodied Leadership Coach for Dance, Fitness & Wellness studio owners, Ali is widely known for her ability to disrupt and challenge the status quo. While teaching dance will always be her first passion she now spends her time working with companies and individuals across a plethora of offerings. From 1:1 leadership coaching, to Culture Code consulting, Specialized Dance Education, public speaking and more, she enjoys time and money freedom allowing her to create conscious and aligned choices that make each day exciting. She’s passionate about de-conditioning unconscious bias, having tough conversations around social issues & the exploration of energetics as it relates to our human experience. Her WHY is ‘to recognize the potential in herself and others so that they have the freedom and choice to create the authentic life they deserve to live’ and aims to live each day as the most authentic, embodied and confident version of herself.
