Swan Dive
Swan Dive Podcast celebrates people who pivoted to chase their dreams: artists, entrepreneurs, musical legends like George Clinton, Olympic gold medalists, Africa’s first black female neurosurgeon, journalists, formerly incarcerated persons and every day people from all walks of life ... share what drove them to find the courage to chase their dream. Hosts and lifelong friends, Stuart Sheldon and Ron Rothberg, launched Swan Dive in 2020 as Ron prepared for his own swan dive. After an illustrious 25-year media sales career he returned to his passion - content creation. Stu leapt from Wall Street to the arts three decades ago and never looked back. They approach each guest's dive through these distinct lenses, aiming to reveal something precious and inspiring.
