What do you do when the dream you’ve chased your entire life suddenly stops feeling right? By the age of 17, Miron Pingasov had raced at 150 mph, broken bones, lost a close friend on the track, and watched his childhood passion for racing turn into something more political than purposeful. Faced with the weight of expectation and the pull of something deeper, Miron made a decision most wouldn’t at his age – he walked away. In this episode, Miron opens up about the grief, clarity, and courage it took to choose a new path. His story is a reminder that we’re allowed to outgrow our dreams and that starting over doesn’t mean failure. It can actually be the beginning of real freedom. Three things you’ll take away from Miron’s story: How letting go of a lifelong dream can make space for something more meaningful Why early failure is actually a gift that accelerates growth The power of being a sponge – and listening when others share wisdom About Miron Pingasov Miron Pingasov has raced open-wheel cars at 150 mph, flown solo at 10,000 feet, and co-founded businesses in real estate, clothing, and media – all before turning 18. Now a student at Syracuse University pursuing a degree in Aerospace Engineering, he’s also the co-founder of PT Development in Florida and works alongside his former racing sponsor on litigation funding initiatives in the UK. Miron believes that the earlier we fail, the sooner we learn – and the sooner we learn, the sooner we succeed. Whether behind the wheel, in a boardroom, or on campus, he brings speed, structure, and a deep curiosity for growth. He’s especially passionate about helping younger individuals trust themselves, take risks, and find meaning on their own terms.

This is episode 9 of my other podcast: It’s Okay If… Permission Slips for Mental Health, Self-Acceptance, and Growth --- Doing nothing can feel uncomfortable, especially when you care deeply about your work, your goals, or the people you're showing up for. But sometimes, pushing through becomes too much. This short reflection is a reminder that rest isn’t laziness. Taking a break isn’t a failure. Pausing doesn’t mean you’ve given up – it means you’re listening to what you need. If you’re feeling the weight of burnout, this is your permission slip to stop producing for a moment, to let things breathe, and to remember that stillness is its own kind of strength.

What if we treated everyone like they were stage four of something? We’re all carrying something we can’t always see. In this episode, I talk with author and storyteller Adam Erwin about what happens when we slow down and choose to lean in, to really see people instead of scanning past them. Adam shares the life-altering moment on a post-9/11 flight that changed how he moves through the world and ultimately led him to launch a multi-year project: interviewing strangers on airplanes and capturing their stories in his book Lessons from Coach. For anyone feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or unsure how to make a difference, Adam’s story is a reminder that presence is power. By leaning into the moment, we don’t just change someone else’s day. We change ourselves, too. Takeaways from Adam’s life shift: He realized that judgment was robbing him of connection and chose curiosity instead. His small act of leaning in sparked a five-year project filled with empathy and meaning. Modeling daily kindness (especially for his kids) rewired how he sees the world and how others see themselves. 🎧 Listen now at www.thelifeshiftpodcast.com/189 Guest Bio: Adam Erwin is a speaker and author of three books. His latest book, Lessons From Coach: Restoring Empathy, Curiosity, and Being Present One Flight At a Time, captures the lessons he learned from passengers that he interviewed on plane flights... in coach. Adam is a father of two daughters, a fitness and health enthusiast, and is on a mission to challenge others to see more value in the person next to you.

Jealousy can feel uncomfortable – even shameful. But it's also human. You might feel it when someone else gets the opportunity you’ve been dreaming of, or when their joy highlights something you still deeply want. This short reflection offers a compassionate reminder: jealousy doesn’t make you bad or ungrateful. It often points to a dream or desire within you that still matters. Instead of pushing the feeling away or layering it with guilt, this episode invites you to notice it, name it, and let it move through without judgment. You're allowed to feel jealous and still be kind to yourself. See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info .…

What do you do when your partner says, “I have tumors in my lungs and spine”? We don’t get instructions for that kind of moment. And we definitely don’t get told what it means to carry someone you love through the hardest, slowest, most beautiful goodbye. In this episode, I talk with Tony Stewart —writer, partner, caregiver—about what shifted the day his wife, Lynn, was diagnosed with terminal cancer, and what he learned as they walked through the next six years together. This conversation isn’t just about loss. It’s about presence. And what happens when you let yourself feel every bit of it.

Tony Stewart is the author of *Carrying the Tiger: Living with Cancer, Dying with Grace, Finding Joy While Grieving*, a memoir chronicling the six years he spent walking alongside his wife through her terminal illness.

Some feelings show up without warning – and without a name. You’re not sad, not exactly anxious, not even sure what’s wrong… but something feels off. And when you can’t explain it, the urge to fix it gets louder. This short reflection is a reminder that not every emotion needs a label. Not every ache needs to be solved right away. Sometimes, the kindest thing you can do is feel it – even if you don’t understand it yet.

From walking out of school to creating art worldwide, Danny Suede chose his own way forward. What if the life you want is just past the fear? So many of us stay stuck because the obstacles are loud and obvious — the job, the money, the expectations. But the route to the life we dream about? That path is quiet. Subtle. Hidden. In this episode, I talk with artist and creative nomad Danny Suede about the bold decision he made as a teenager that changed everything, and how that one moment opened the door to a life he never imagined — one full of art, travel, and purposeful creation. Danny’s story reminds us that we can reimagine what “normal” looks like. That there’s nothing wrong with choosing something different. And that starting before you’re ready might just be the bravest thing you ever do. Takeaways: Danny's bold decision to leave school at 13 marked the beginning of his own story. Learning doesn’t have to resemble a classroom; it can unfold in line with your own curiosity. The most meaningful moments often lie just behind the fears we tend to avoid. Danny Suede is an indie/pop artist, musician, and visual creator who embodies the mantra, "Life Can Be More Of What You Dream." Beyond his music, Danny shares his perspective through his Substack writings and explores creativity through his own art and visuals. He also creates captivating videos on YouTube to inspire a global audience. Danny has retired from social media to fully dedicate himself to his craft. He embraces a nomadic lifestyle that allows him to create without distraction. In 2025, he’ll travel the world, drawing inspiration from diverse cultures and experiences to shape his music, storytelling, and art.

There are days when holding it all together just isn’t possible. And despite what we’ve been taught – to push through, to stay strong, to keep showing up – sometimes the bravest thing we can do is let ourselves break.

What if your superpower was secretly destroying your life? Ian Fee spent decades thinking alcohol was his key to connection – his edge in business and relationships. He built a successful career, a massive network, and a party-filled life that looked like everything was working. But beneath the surface, he was numb, disconnected, and silently unraveling. Everything changed on the third day of rehab, when a moment of clarity hit: if he wasn't right with himself, nothing else would ever be right. That spark ignited a complete shift. Since then, Ian's found deeper purpose through daily routines, emotional healing, and a strong core of support. He's sharing his story not just to reflect, but to help others know it's never too late to change your life. Takeaways: A moment of emotional awakening in rehab changed Ian's direction for good He learned to replace numbing with daily healing practices like journaling, meditation, and cold plunges His transformation was possible because he built a small, trusted circle of support who saw every version of him Topics Discussed: Why he believed alcohol was the key to his professional success The emotional suppression that followed decades of drinking Entering rehab and hitting a breaking point The role of his "core four" in keeping him grounded Creating daily rituals to feel better, not just function How sharing vulnerably helped him reclaim his story The ripple effect of helping others through his book Websites: makeitgreat.me – Ian's personal site with merch and info Amazon – The Wild Ride to Sobriety by Ian Fee Resources: To listen in on more conversations about pivotal moments that changed lives forever, subscribe to "The Life Shift" on Apple Podcasts or wherever you listen to podcasts.

What if the moment you learned who you really are changed everything? Leyla King grew up in a vibrant family surrounded by food, faith, and love, but she did not have the language or clarity to name her Palestinian identity. In this episode, Leyla shares how a high school film screening shifted everything, leading her to reclaim her heritage, record her grandmother’s stories, and write Daughters of Palestine: A Memoir in Five Generations. This conversation explores the power of generational storytelling, the intersection of faith and culture, and the deep responsibility of telling stories that were nearly lost. You’ll hear about: • Discovering her Palestinian identity as a teenager • Recording her grandmother’s oral history in 2002 • How passing as white shaped her understanding of privilege • The role of faith in survival, resilience, and storytelling • Why she’s sharing her family’s truth with the world now Guest Bio: Leyla K.

Healing isn’t linear. Just when you think you’ve moved on – from heartbreak, betrayal, or someone who broke your trust – something small can bring it all back. A song, a post, a memory. And suddenly you're asking yourself, “Why does this still hurt?” That doesn't mean you’re broken. It means you cared. It means you trusted. And it hurt. This short reflection reminds us that healing has no perfect timeline. Even if it’s been months or years, it’s okay if the sting still shows up. It doesn’t mean you’re stuck – it means you’re still healing. If an old wound is still lingering, this is your permission slip to feel it without shame, to honor the ache without rushing it away.
