The moment you decide to change your story, everything shifts. But the real question is will you choose courage when comfort feels safer?

This mashup brings together two powerful voices who’ve redefined what it means to lead with clarity and conviction. Vash Tomanec, who went from delivering food for Uber Eats to building multiple seven-figure businesses, and Dan Michelson, a seasoned CEO who walked away from success to rediscover purpose in leadership and life.

From finding your “why” to making bold transitions when the world says “stay put,” their journeys reveal the mindset, self-awareness, and discipline that transform ordinary moments into defining ones. Whether you’re just starting or leading at the top, this conversation reminds us that growth begins the moment we decide.

Tune in and reflect on the power of your own decisions.

See how everything shifts when you stop waiting for perfect conditions and start leading with purpose. Every meaningful change begins with one intentional step. Let this episode inspire yours.
