Swan Dive
Now in its 5th year, with over 100 episodes, Swan Dive features inspiring people who had the clarity and courage to pivot in life and chase their dreams. Hosts and life-long friends, Ron Rothberg and Stu Sheldon, both made massive swan dives from successful careers in media and finance to the unknowns of content creation and fine art. Through failures and successes, both eventually found the soul satisfaction of becoming "who they wanted to be when they grew up." Their joyful wisdom graces each conversation with guests that include: legendary musical artists, National Geographic photographers, social justice warriors, clergy, journalists ... even Africa's first black, female brain surgeon. Each guest opens up about their unique emotional journey, their fear of the unknown, the grind of starting a new path and, hopefully, the world's embrace on the road to their most authentic selves. Vulnerability, laughter and inspiration abound. Hopefully, you'll find comfort and kinship in your own big pivot, whether you've made it yet or not. Share your Swan Dive story with us and we may feature you. Find us @stuart_sheldon and ronrothberg@comcast.net.

Nick Holt - Fit to Dive - From Financial Analyst to Fitness Guru
Nick Holt is a highly sought after health and fitness coach and founder of Nick Holt Fitness & SaltwaterFit.com. An athletic kid raised in New York, Nick found himself falling out of shape after 7 years in the finance world. He did not like who he was becoming, physically or spiritually - "I realized I was essentially spending the vast majority of my existence taking no risks, dropping every dream I ever had, living for the weekends, and dreaming of a life that could have been." Nick took aggressive action, moving to Costa Rica where he focused on his own physical wellness and spent the last decade helping men shed pounds, build muscle and defy aging. Ever since his swan dive, Nick's life has been guided by the timeless principal that without your health, life cannot be enjoyable or productive. "Saltwater Fit is the antidote to our sedentary, uninspired, distracted modern life that so many of us are living," he says.
