Welcome to Shift-Starters

Shift. It means a small change in direction, position, tendency, or emphasis. We as humans often want immediate and sweeping change. But the truth is the tiny shifts, often over time that create the most lasting impact. Shift Starters is a show about those shifts and the people who are creating them in themselves, in other people, communities, cultures, and the world.

I’m your host, Dr. Erin Baker. I’m a transformational coach, social psychologist, and lifelong shift starter. Over the last 15 years, I’ve come to believe one simple truth. Whether you want to make a difference in the life of one person or 1 billion, the shifts have to begin from within, and how you think and feel, and who you be as a leader and as a change-maker, and what actions you take along the way. It’s not about becoming a different person. It’s about becoming more of who you are and expanding what you’re capable of as you serve others.

Listen, in, as I bring on shift starting guests. They’re transformational leaders, heart-lead entrepreneurs, authors, culture creators, and activists. They’ll share not just what they’re up to in the world, but how they are making those shifts from the inside out.

And join me as I unpack and explore some of the most meaningful shifts I’ve made as I’ve grown myself and my business and move forward with my mission of a more, just and equitable world. I’m so glad you’re here. And I can’t wait for you to follow along with me and my guests as we start some shift.
