Welcome to Pole Pod with your host Dolly Daggerz!
A safe space where I talk all things mindset with your Pole Idols.
I will be pulling back the shiny, polished curtain (that we see on social media and on stage) and revealing what’s really going on inside the mind of the performer.
I will also be aiming to answer the following questions:
How can we combat the mental health issues facing pole dancers and performers, athletes, artists alike?
What can we learn from those who have struggled?
What tools can we learn to be more adept at facing challenge?
How can having deeper conversations about pole dancing help the pole community at large?
My aim, as a pole dancer who has struggled with anxiety, panic attacks, perfectionism (and more!) is to help others.
If this helps you please feel free to reach out, share, like and connect with me and the guests interviewed.

This episode is with the powerhouse Gemma Rose. Gemma is incredibly honest and vulnerable and this, I believe, is one of her biggest strengths.
We talk about her struggles with her mental health, her cute mermaid persona Finderella, founding her pole competition PDSM and her work as a stripper. Plus much more!
If you haven’t listened to Gemma’s Podcast The 6am Club I strongly advise checking that out next! Her stories of what happens in the Strip Club on her shift are funny, sometimes heart breaking but most importantly very nuanced: Like everything in life, it’s not simply awful or super amazing but there are shades of grey which can be confusing. It’s easy to be addicted to the highs whilst living the lows.
I want to thank Gemma for being so open.
Trigger warning: suicide, mental health struggles, body dismorphia & sexual assault.
