Beautiful Shifts
Honest conversations on life’s transitions & shifts. New perspectives, finding beauty together. We are Lindsay and Shantil - two friends who love good conversation, connection, and expanding our view of the human experience. While going through our own life transitions, we began recognizing many extraordinary shifts in the ordinary lives of people around us. In awe of their ability to find beauty amidst challenge and change, we created this space to share these inspiring stories. Through this podcast, we hope to bring the concept Fred Roger’s loved and explained so well to life, ”Frankly, there isn’t anyone you couldn’t learn to love once you’ve heard their story.” Follow along on Instagram @beautifulshifts_podcast and on Facebook where we share episode updates, photos of guests, video clips, and more. Thank you for listening!

Ryan shares his story of leaving corporate America to start his own interior design firm, Smart Studio Designs, even when he felt it was risky and too late. Ryan has lived in a variety of places introducing him to people and cultures that have shaped who he has become today. His story is sprinkled with interesting and important life lessons he has learned along the way, including seeking help for anxiety when needed.
Ryan helps us see the reward is in the journey, that we can look back and find beauty in our individual paths, and that fear is normal, but not to miss out on what the other side of fear has to offer.

Kari shares her story as a survivor of a suicide attempt as a teen, and the transition, healing and hope that has come as she has learned mental health tools and grown into adulthood. Kari is Shantil's sister, so she is an extra special guest to kick off the podcast with!
As teen suicide rates continue to be on the rise, Kari shares that if she can help at least one person think twice, that gives her all the motivation she needs to share her story.
