Balancing Your Passion & Your Purpose Artwork

Beyond The Dance Floor with Geena Driven

Over the last 20 years, I have spent a great part of my career creating opportunities for dancers to discover, develop, and demonstrate their passion for dance. I have met this challenge while being broke, scared, tired, and lost. But when you know the calling on your life, giving up is not an option. Dance has been such an amazing gift to me. Some of the most devastating moments in my life happened in and through dance. However, I have experienced some of my greatest joys and accomplishments as a dancer and a creative. It wasn't that long ago that I found myself unable to afford rent or gas. Fast forward a few years, I get to lead a company that builds community for women (Hip Hop Heels), and another that still remains the largest celebration of hip hop dance in the south (Dallas Hip-Hop Dance Festival). The weekly sold out classes are simply the icing on the cake. This podcast will cover a wide variety of topics - dance, business, love, leadership, God, finances, sex/sexuality, fitness... LIFE. My goal is to streamline my resources and knowledge to help dancers (and anyone who will listen) create a life worth dancing for. Throughout my life and career, one thing has become very apparent - when all is said and done, what truly matters in life and yes, in dance, happens beyond the dance floor.

Balancing Your Passion & Your Purpose

February 28, 2022 • Geena Driven • Episode 9

"When you pursue your passion with excellence, you very well may discover your purpose."
- Geena Driven

This is becoming a wildly popular topic in the world today. Leaders no longer desire to just lead people effectively. Part of their job now is to help people discover what they are passionate about, and develop that passion into purpose. Why? Because when someone finds significance in what they are doing, it makes leading them that much easier.
Flip the coin. People no longer want to just go through life. They desire to find the one thing that sets their soul on fire. More people than ever before, desire to live a meaningful life. A purpose-driven life.

Geena shares 3 practical handles to help you navigate balancing the transition from passion to purpose.
