Former Dancing With the Stars<\/em><\/a> pro Lindsay Arnold<\/strong><\/a> is not ruling out a potential return to the ballroom \u2014 but season 35 just might not be the right time.<\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019ve always said that I will literally never say never because I love the show. There\u2019s so many aspects of it that I miss,\u201d Lindsay, 32, exclusively told Us<\/em> while promoting her partnership with Stitch Fix<\/a>. \u201cIn a perfect world, I could do the show and also do all the other things I have and also take my kids to all of their things and also be home. \u2026 But I think right now, I am just absolutely loving and embracing this phase of life that we\u2019re in.\u201d<\/p>\n Lindsay explained that her children, whom she shares with husband Sam Cusick<\/strong>, will begin school soon and she wants to be fully present in their Utah lives rather than juggling dancing, parenthood and the inevitable responsibilities in Los Angeles that come with DWTS<\/em>. (The couple are parents to daughters Sage, 5, and June, 3, and son Hayes, 2 months.<\/a>)<\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019ve got my girls in so many different things, and I love being there for all of those things. I love being able to be fully present and just embrace this phase of life,\u201d Lindsay said. \u201cI feel really grateful for all the years that I had on the show and embracing that phase of my life.\u201d<\/p>\n Lindsay\u2019s youngest sister, Rylee Arnold<\/strong>, previously told Us<\/em> that the former pro was likely saying \u201cno\u201d to DWTS<\/em> right now<\/a> because she\u2019s feeling \u201cso established in her life.\u201d When asked about Rylee\u2019s assessment, Lindsay agreed that she\u2019s soaking up this chapter.<\/p>\n \u201cI feel like there\u2019s a lot of really awesome things that I\u2019m doing that are fulfilling me and helping me with a creative outlet and making me feel like I\u2019m creating something for myself. So, yes, I think what she said kind of sums it up,\u201d Lindsay said. \u201cAgain never say never because I love the show so much and getting to do [DWTS<\/em>] Con was such a fun reminder of that passion. I think as of now, no, I\u2019m really just loving where we\u2019re at and being able to be here with my family and doing all the things that we\u2019re doing.\u201d<\/p>\n While she may not be lacing up her dancing shoes right now, Lindsay is staying busy with her Stitch Fix partnership and challenging the unrealistic pressure to \u201cbounce back\u201d after giving birth.<\/p>\n You have successfully subscribed.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n \u201cI feel like as a mom of three, I\u2019m not doing anything or adding anything into my life unless it\u2019s going to make my days easier because it\u2019s just crazy,\u201d she said. \u201cI think one of the biggest things that I live by across the board is embracing every stage of life that I am in. I think it\u2019s so easy in this culture to feel like we need to bounce back from whatever it is to always stay in this pristine premium phase of life.\u201d<\/p>\n
