Imagine what your life would be like if you only greenlit your ideas. No red lights, no one telling you what you “should” do. What do you think would happen?

Shelby Stanger is no stranger to fueling her wildest ideas. A seasoned journalist and top-ranked podcaster, Shelby Stanger’s work and podcasts have been featured everywhere from The New York Times and The San Diego Union Tribune to Outside Magazine, ESPN and the cover of Apple Podcasts. Curious about her subjects and willing to go to great lengths in her research, Shelby has surfed from New Jersey to New Zealand, studied with a breath guru, fasted for six days on only water, paddled down a portion of the Amazon River, and interviewed countless CEOs, athletes, and wellness experts on assignment for major publications. With a knack for audio stories, Shelby created and sold her first podcast about adventure called Wild Ideas Worth Living to REI Co-Op in 2020 (she remains the host) and recently hosted an award-winning travel show for Lufthansa called Life Changing Places. Her latest project, Vitamin Joy, has a standout crew of guests, offering prescriptions for having more health, humor and fun in everyday lives.

In this episode, you’ll learn how Shelby was able to take her wild ideas and turn them into a catalyst to fuel her life with so many rich experiences.
