About this listen

For anyone ready to expand into their fullest, boldest, most authentic life. A show about aligned success, soulful growth, and stepping into the life you were meant to live.


Maybe you’ve spent years on the sidelines playing small.

Maybe you’ve done everything you were “supposed” to do — the career, the family, the stability — and achieved more than most, yet deep down, something still feels off.


Maybe you climbed to the top of the ladder only to realize it was leaning against the wrong wall.

Maybe you've built a life through grit, ambition, and sheer willpower… but you're quietly wondering, “Is this it? Is it too late to want something more aligned — more authentic?”


Here’s the truth:
It’s not too late.
You're not behind.
And you’re not done — not by a long shot.


Hosted by transformational coach, motivational speaker, author, and former executive leader Michelle Rios, who spent 25+ years advising CEOs, shaping global brands, and rising to the highest levels of leadership before reinventing her own life, The Live Your Extraordinary Life Podcast is your catalyst for reimagining what’s possible — and pursuing big, aligned goals with clarity, courage, and purpose.


Here, “living your extraordinary life” means creating success that feels as good on the inside as it looks on the outside.


It’s about authenticity — choosing goals and dreams that align with who you truly are and what you deeply want.

It’s about shifting your energetic frequency so the life you’re building feels meaningful, expansive, and magnetic.


It’s about ambition with intention, success with soul, and growth that feels good — because when your energy is aligned, you attract more of who you truly are.


Each episode blends personal stories with neuroscience-backed insight, spiritual wisdom, and practical tools to help you:


· break free from the patterns and identities that keep you small

· trust yourself again — and move from clarity, not fear

· release the guilt or shame of “starting over” at any age

· reconnect with your purpose, intuition, and your highest potential

· build confidence from the inside out

· rewrite the stories that are holding you back
· shift your energy into alignment so your life begins to rise up and meet you

· and take courageous, intentional steps toward the life you actually want


Through reflective solo episodes and candid conversations with experts, thought leaders, healers, and everyday people who rebuilt and elevated their lives at every age and stage, this show helps you move from contemplation to courageous, aligned action.


Whether you’re a high achiever craving deeper meaning or someone who’s held yourself back for years, this is your invitation to rise — not by hustling harder, but by stepping into your most authentic self.


Your past is not a life sentence.
Your age is not a deadline.
And your extraordinary life is not a someday dream — it begins right now.


Pick yourself up.
Dust yourself off.
And let’s get moving.
Michelle will walk with you every step of the way

    She Waited 16 Years for her Olympic Medal—But That's Not the Real Story with Shannon Rowbury

    The London 2012 1500m final should have been a clean fight for the podium. Instead, it became a case study in how doping and institutional corruption can steal results, confidence, and peace of mind from athletes who did everything right. I’m joined by Shannon Rowbury, one of the most accomplished US distance runners ever, an Olympic medalist, and an Emmy winning sports broadcaster, to talk about what it’s like to wait more than a decade for the truth to catch up.

    Shannon shares her unlikely origin story, from Irish dance to discovering running in high school, and the mindset that helped her level up without the goal feeling out of reach. We dig into the emotional whiplash of finishing short of the medals, sensing something was wrong, and then learning years later she’s officially upgraded to Olympic bronze, with the medal to be awarded at LA 2028. The real story is not only about an Olympic 1500m result, but about identity, validation, and rebuilding self trust.

    We also shift into motherhood and women’s health, including why Shannon co wrote Strong as a Mother with pelvic floor physical therapist Jessica Dorrington. We talk pregnancy exercise, core and pelvic floor basics, postpartum return to exercise, and why credible research based guidance is still too hard to find. Shannon also explains the fight for maternity protections in sport and how a USA Track and Field maternity policy helped change the landscape for athlete moms.

  • The Midlife Leap: Building Your Own Brand with Joy Errico

    The Midlife Leap: Building Your Own Brand with Joy Errico

    You can look wildly successful on paper and still feel like your life is shrinking. Michelle Rios sits down with Joy Errico, a communications powerhouse who leads brands through high-stakes moments and then makes her own bold pivot at midlife, trading the perceived safety of corporate structure for the uncertainty and freedom of entrepreneurship.

    We get real about what pushes a seasoned executive to finally hit reset: pandemic pressure, constant crisis communications, divorce, and the quiet realization that adrenaline is not a sustainable life plan. Joy shares what actually helps when you are standing at the crossroads, including therapy, support systems, financial planning, and the slow build of a brave decision that is years in the making.

    Then we go deep on the part most people skip: mindset. Joy opens up about imposter syndrome, scarcity mindset, and the identity shift of becoming the face of your own company. She also explains how Maven Row evolves into a unique blend of strategic communications and brand image consulting focused on 360 executive presence: voice, body language, wardrobe, narrative, and “dress how you want to feel” authenticity that still reads as polished and powerful. If you are thinking about a midlife career change, building a personal brand, or launching a consulting business, this conversation offers practical clarity and a needed dose of faith.

  • La Dolce Vita: A Midlife Reinvention Story with Paola Versano

    La Dolce Vita: A Midlife Reinvention Story with Paola Versano
    Apr 7 2026

    She had the résumé that’s supposed to quiet the questions: CEO success, a long marriage, two kids, a beautiful life in the US. And yet Paula Verzano still felt the thing so many high-achieving women rarely admit out loud: life looked great, but it didn’t feel fully aligned or fully alive.

    Michelle Rios sits down with Paula to unpack the exact moment that “Is this really it?” became impossible to ignore and what it took to choose reinvention at midlife. Paula shares how her Italian American upbringing shaped her ambition and self-sacrifice, why she decided to prioritize herself for the first time, and what “going all in” actually meant: divorce, leaving a multimillion-dollar business, and moving to Italy alone to pursue citizenship and a new chapter. Then COVID hit and everything got harder. You’ll hear the practical reality behind the dream, including fear, logistics, loneliness, bureaucracy, and the deep inner knowing that kept her moving anyway.

    We also dig into what the Dolce Vita lifestyle really is and what it isn’t. Paula explains why her Italy retreats for women are intentionally not tourist trips, how beauty and presence can become a catalyst for clarity, and why re-entry support is where lasting change happens. The conversation touches self-love and self-worth, the cultural patterns that teach women to put themselves last, and the “hard mirror” effect when your courage makes other people uncomfortable.

    If you’re navigating midlife transitions, craving aligned success, or considering a bold life redesign, this one will give you language, perspective, and real-world insight. Subscribe, share with a friend who needs permission, and leave a review so more women can find these stories.
