Heal Squad x Maria Menounos 937. The Real Impact of Reality TV on Mental Health w/ Former Dance Moms Star Nia Sioux
Happy Tuesday Heal Squad! Welcome to part 1 of my conversation with Nia Sioux, former Dance Moms star, to explore her journey from reality TV fame to her current passions and advocacy work. In this episode, Nia reflects on her time on Dance Moms, sharing a mix of gratitude for the opportunities it brought and candid thoughts on the toll it took on her mental health. She opens up about the challenges of growing up in the public eye, describing how the experience shifted from something joyful to feeling more like work, a sentiment many dancers can relate to.
As an advocate for mental health, Nia shares insights into her involvement with the Seize the Awkward campaign, offering advice on how to have meaningful conversations with loved ones about mental health, emphasizing that it's okay to feel what you feel and the importance of knowing there’s always someone to turn to.
