    Ep. 1142 Dr. Michelle Robin | Celebrating 600 Episodes of Small Changes, Big Shifts

    What does it take to create 600 episodes of meaningful conversations? A whole lot of passion, purpose, and a belief that even the smallest actions can make a big difference. In this special crossover episode, Rounding the Bases host Joel Goldberg steps behind the mic as guest host of the 600th episode of Small Changes, Big Shifts, joining Dr. Michelle Robin and Bayleigh Soza to celebrate an incredible milestone. Together, they look back on the podcast’s journey, the relationships built along the way, and the powerful lessons learned through hundreds of conversations about health, wellness, and the human connection. From the importance of getting back to the basics of well-being to the impact of gratitude, kindness, and community, the conversation goes far beyond physical health. It’s about showing up for others, learning from different generations, and recognizing that true success isn’t measured by numbers, but by the lives we touch. They also look ahead to what’s next for Small Changes, Big Shifts, including the Kindness Campaign and its mission to inspire hope, create opportunities, and strengthen communities. Because whether it’s in business, leadership, or life, lasting change often starts with something small.

    Ep. 1139 Julie Rudman | When a Diagnosis Becomes a Purpose

    Some of the most important things in life are the things we never intended, and today I’m joined by a survivor who knows that better than most. She’s someone who found herself in a club she never wanted to be in…then build a better one. Julie Rudman is the Founder and Executive Director of The Breast Cancer Club, a community reshaping breast cancer support across Kansas City. It’s her answer to the question, ‘Where do I turn now?’ that too many people battling cancer have to ask. And now, what began as one woman’s journey, has become a place for connection and support, fueled by the belief that nobody should have to face this disease alone.
