Episode 28: Healing the Self with Kay Dee

In this episode, Celtic toasts to the good life with a queen of the next generation of dancers, DJs, and battlecats: the incredible Kay Dee. Over the course of the interview they discuss the challenges of relocating to a new city, finding freedom within House dancing, learning how to take her time with Dance, learning DJing as the art of people, the influence of Soulrane and Noey Lopez, how TikTok is the worst, her journey with mental health and her BPD diagnosis, teaching groove to adult beginners, being illuminated by Archie Burnett on the importance of living a balanced life, generational wars, appreciating the OGs of the Dance World, the anxiety of becoming an adult in the age of Trump, getting out the vote in the 2020 election, recognizing colorism and light-skinned privilege, understanding one’s true self as opposed to ego projections, the book that’s impacted her most, her expectations and hopes for Gen Z, and the power of the process as opposed to the goal. Celtic recounts the story of his birth in order to stall for time.
