You Have To Be Hungry" | Elly Meyers on Success, Motherhood & Building Australia's Biggest Dance Competition
Description
Elly Meyers is the founder of Carnival Dance Challenge, one of Australia's most recognised dance competitions, but long before building a national business, she was just another dancer fighting for a spot on the front row.
In this episode of Sensory Overload, Elly opens up about the realities of growing a business while raising a family, the sacrifices that come with chasing success, and why hunger, resilience and consistency matter more than talent alone.
We talk about:
• Building Carnival Dance Challenge from the ground up
• The pressure of running a business as a mum
• Dance culture, competition and ambition
• Fighting for opportunities as a young dancer
• Leadership, confidence and backing yourself
• Balancing family life with entrepreneurship
• The lessons she'd give her younger self
• What success actually looks like behind the scenes
Whether you're a dancer, business owner, parent or someone chasing a big goal, this conversation is packed with honest insights about what it really takes to build something meaningful.
