Most days fade into the next. You make the coffee, answer the emails, run the errands, fold the laundry, try to keep up. 

But every once in a while, life gives you a moment that blows your freakin' mind. 

For more than a year, at the end of Audacious interviews, we've asked guests one final question: Will you tell me about a pinch me moment in your life?

Here are their answers: stories of love, second chances, belonging, transformation, and awe, including a few from 250 miles above Earth. 

 

Suggested episodes:
Life advice, one Audacious guest at a time 
Forgiveness: How we define it and how it defines us 
I saw it coming! When premonitions come true 
What smells remind you of childhood?
Kitchen objects with a story. Listen at your own whisk  
Awe yeah! Exploring the magic of mind-blowing moments 
How regret teaches us to live 
Stories of everyday courage, from getting a needle in the eye to tackling a purse thief 
The surprising ways we ritual 

 

GUESTS (in order of appearance): 
First segment: Andy Corren, Bruce Campbell, Steve Feltham, Leroy McSmith, Jeffrey Marsh, Dr. Cori Breslauer, Logan Goodspeed, Casper ter Kuile, Jody Jahn, Harriet Newman Cohen, Andrew Luber, Patrick O'Connor, Glynn Washington, and Bill Edgar
