In this episode, we’re speaking with best-selling author, manifesting expert, keynote motivational speaker, and master life coach Sarah Centrella about her book, “Hustle Believe Receive,” and how everyone can make their dreams reality when they’re not afraid to take action. She also talks about how she was able to take an inspiring trip to Italy with her children, as a single mother, and she outlines how you can make your own dream trip come true. And of course, she talks about one of our favorite topics – the hustle as an Italian American trait.
In the Story Segment, we talk to one of our long-time listeners, author Joe Pagetta about his book, “Guinea Bastard,” a collection of personal reflections and essays from his childhood growing up as an Italian American.
