How Country Line Dancing Became a Path Out of Depression with Adia Nuno

⚠️ A quick note before we begin: This conversation includes mention of depression and suicide. If you’re struggling, please know you’re not alone. In the U.S., you can dial or text 988 for the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline for immediate support.

 

In this episode of Let’s Talk About It with Lori Streator, I sit down with Adia Nuno - a country line dance instructor, entrepreneur, and an advocate for community who has an incredible story of healing through movement.

Adia opens up about her history with depression, suicidal thoughts and how discovering country line dancing sparked not only a sense of hope, but also a path back to confidence, community, and self-expression.

We talk about: • The connection between movement and mental health • Why community is such a powerful tool for healing • Adia’s journey from depression to becoming a business owner and leader in her field • Where to start if you want to use dance to support your own mental health

Adia’s story is proof that healing doesn’t always look like what we expect. Sometimes it comes in the form of making big decisions, music, movement, and the courage to show up for ourselves one step at a time.
