The Life Shift features candid conversations about the pivotal moments that changed lives forever. What is your pivotal moment? What if that pivotal moment was just the beginning? We all have our stories, but through these conversations, we discover communities. We learn that there are commonalities in the ups and downs that we all face through our personal growth, self-discovery, and transformation stories. But most importantly, we learn that we are not alone. The Life Shift podcast highlights life-altering moments and humanizes the struggles and triumphs through them all.
