Finding Purpose and Intuition: Marina Shiferman’s Journey from Ballet to Real Estate and Beyond

In this episode of Pivot with Purpose, I chat with Marina Shiferman about her pivot from Ballerina to San Francisco Realtor®. After studying at the Kirov Ballet Academy and competing at the highest level, Marina’s life shifted when she was diagnosed with a brain tumor. Her resilience and passion led her to build a thriving business in luxury real estate, where she honed her skills in connecting clients with exceptional properties.

Now, with her agency ‘Together In Luxury’, Marina combines her deep understanding of ballet’s grace and precision with her expertise in the luxury world. She founded the agency to create authentic partnerships between the world’s top ballerinas and luxury brands, ensuring each campaign captures the essence of both art and elegance. Driven by her love for ballet and luxury, Marina is passionate about elevating brands and ballerinas to new heights, creating timeless moments of beauty and sophistication.
