Misty Copeland reflects on growing up without consistent safety, finding stability and belonging through ballet, and becoming the first Black woman to serve as a principal dancer at American Ballet Theatre. She discusses improvisation, racism and colorism in the ballet world, the mentors who helped her find her voice, and a quieter form of confidence that no longer depends on proving herself. She and Dr. Becky also consider how to give children stability without shielding them from every struggle.
