What an incredible ride this conversation was with MIchael Vadacchino. Throughout his life, Michael has fought against gender norms and expectations - sometimes just being a badass gymnast or dancer and sometimes actively as he leads male dancers in a judgement-free Boys Dance Too conference. Any way you slice it, Michael is an artist, a thinker and a leader.
You hear, toward the end, some emotion come out of Michael. There were, in fact, a few tears. It won't do this conversation or Michael justice to try to explain to you, but it is powerful. Because realizing that you are able to live without worrying which parts of you are "too" anything is liberating and exciting and emotional.
Also his familect is hilarious. There are pictures of Shailushi and Michael trying to perfect it, stay tuned for those!
