Mary Helen Bowers Reveals the Reality of Elite Ballet & Starting Over as an Entrepreneur

  • Resumen

  • I wrap up season one of Good Listen with Mary Helen Bowers, a former professional ballerina with the New York City Ballet. We discuss her journey from being a young girl in North Carolina dreaming of becoming a ballerina, to making that dream a reality by training at the prestigious School of American Ballet as a teenager. Mary Helen provides a fascinating inside look at the intense world of elite ballet. She sheds light on the incredible physical and mental demands, requiring an almost monastic lifestyle of constant training, discipline, and sacrifice from a very young age. Despite the difficulties, Mary Helen made it to the top, even training Natalie Portman for her role in the film Black Swan. After retiring from dancing, she started her own fitness company called Ballet Beautiful, allowing her to share her passion for ballet in a healthier, more positive way focused on strength, artistry, and longevity. Her story is an inspiring example of sustained commitment to one's calling, while also evolving to live that passion in an authentic, fulfilling way.
