STRIVECast

On today's episode of the #STRIVECast, we spend some time together as a podcast fam, and give Jeff and Noel a little vacation from doing weekly interviews! We play some hilarious games, like The Price Is Right: Facebook Marketplace Edition, and a new game called "You Laugh, You Lose!" Definitely tune in to hear which joke brought the house down at the end of that segment. We'll be back next week with your regularly scheduled interview-programming, but for now enjoy the STRIVECast fam sharing LOTS of laughs together! Happy #STRIVECastTuesday!

On today's episode of the #STRIVECast, Jeff and Noel sit down with Mike Nicholas, who is the Sales Operations Manager at CHART Metalworks! CHART is a local business that creates map jewelry and accessories, allowing customers to select a map that means something to them. Thanks so much to Mike for joining us – we had lots of fun! Later in the episode we have an email question for our #AskNoel question, and Jeff does an airing of grievances for #YackingWithYou. And of course, we have an exciting #SusiesQs to close out the show! Happy #PodcastTuesday!

On today's episode of the #STRIVECast, Noel and Jeff speak with financial planner, Rob Wrubel! Rob focuses on financial planning for families with a special-needs member. Rob has also written a book titled "Financial Freedom for Special Needs Families". Rob gave the STRIVECast team some great advice. We hope you find it as informative as we did! We also got some #ValentinesDay dating tips during "Yaking With You", discussed favorite and least favorite presidents (in honor of Presidents Day), and played a riveting game of alphabet categories during Susie's Q's! #HappyListening #podcast #finance #valentine

On today's episode of the #STRIVECast, Noel and Susie sit down with Maine Public's Deputy News Director, Susan Sharon!

We were excited to be able to reunite Susan with at least half of our dynamic duo, since Jeff is out sick this week. Thanks so much to Susan for joining us! Stick around for a round of Valentine's Day themed segments later in the episode. Happy listening!
