In Loving Memory of Stephen “tWitch” Boss | The Art of the Honest Hustle

We're re-releasing this epsiode from season one in honour of the recent passing of Stephen Boss.  Mental health is such an important thing to talk about. If you or someone you know is struggling in any way, please reach out to somebody and know you're not alone. We acknowledge that this episode may be triggering for some people — at the bottom of this page we've added a list of organisations that provide short and long term mental health support services.  -  Today, we have an OG dance community head Stephen "tWitch" Boss, who came from the grassroots dance community and broke his way into Hollywood. Twitch has done everything from competing on shows like Star Search, The Wade Robson Project, and So You Think Can Dance, and found himself as a runner-up in all those shows. He didn’t let the loss from these shows take him off his path to make his mark for dance. He kept pushing, and in doing so found opportunities to venture into other disciplines such as acting and hosting. The gold about Twitch’s story is not all the accolades and projects he’s been on, but really his sharply focused “WHY.” In this chat, Twitch really breaks down the importance of being honest and true with yourself. He says that at the end of the day, the “hustle” just becomes noise that will never quiet down until you figure out what is authentic to you. This couch conversation goes deep and hits home in the realest way. - UK: Mind have a list of 24/7 mental health crisis hotlines: https://www.mind.org.uk/information-support/guides-to-support-and-services/crisis-services/helplines-listening-services/ The Listening Place: https://listeningplace.org.uk/i-need-help/ Local Mind support services: https://www.mind.org.uk/information-support/local-minds/ Maytree Suicide Respite Centre: https://www.maytree.org.uk/ SOS Silence of Suicide: https://sossilenceofsuicide.org/talking-suicide/ YoungMinds Crisis Messenger: https://www.youngminds.org.uk/young-person/shout-85258/ Hub of Hope (mental health support database): https://hubofhope.co.uk/ US: Call the 988 Suicide and Crisis Lifeline at 988: https://988lifeline.org/  IMAlive at 1-800-784-2433: https://www.imalive.org/ DBSA have an extensive list of hotlines: https://www.dbsalliance.org/crisis/suicide-hotline-helpline-information/ The Jed Foundation: https://jedfoundation.org/ The Trevor Project: https://www.thetrevorproject.org/get-help/ The Veterans Crisis Line: https://www.veteranscrisisline.net/ Samaritans USA: http://www.samaritansusa.org/contact.php Trans Lifeline: https://translifeline.org/ Learn more about your ad choices.
