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.

Joshua Deitch - Real (Estate) Passion - Chiropractor to Real Estate Goliath
Joshua Deitch changed the game in residential real estate in tony Marin County, CA, setting sales records and amassing a legion of ecstatic clients. Josh started as a professional basketball player in Israel and brings an athlete’s passion and competitive spirit to work each day, setting him apart in what can be a cookie-cutter profession. He then built a thriving, decade-long career as a successful Bay Area chiropractor, delivering care with bedside charm. After enjoying the renovation of several Mill Valley homes for himself, Josh decided to turn his avocation to his vocation. He left his successful chiropractor gig to focus on luxury real estate full-time. From day 1, he did things differently, trusting his aesthetic intuition and strategically spending money to make money. Each property is staged and presented in all its potential glory. The results speak for themselves: countless 7-figure transactions and multiple awards. During his time as a pro basketball player, all Josh wanted was to play the game—inside, outside, it didn't matter. It was about hustle and excitement. He brings that same intensity to real estate. It’s more than just his career: it's his hobby and his passion!
