We’re kicking off our live Kansas City show with a fantastic hometown story on how one guy went from small time jobs to BIG time pre- and post-game shows for Kansas City Royals television broadcasts. You heard his podcast recently on our feed (as he interviewed Bob Kendrick for his Rounding The Bases podcast), and now you get to hear HIS story. Not only will he talk about chasing his dream career, but also how he’s thinking critically now about “what’s next.” With off-season time and his speaking ability, how does he round out his career to be even more fulfilling and to give more to the world that only he can uniquely offer. We’ll talk to Joel about all of that and more on today’s LIVE show from Kansas City!

Plus, just like at our live show in Orlando, we’re bringing the party with a cast of additional special guests. First, our TIAA difference maker making an impact in her community, we’ll talk to Kathleen Webb from Children First CEO Kansas. She’ll describe how she decided when her neighbor needed help, to pitch in and do what many will call WAY more than her fair share. Plus, in a our headlines segment, Tracie Fobes, from Penny Pinchin Mom joins us on stage to talk about all the interesting things going on around Kansas City. If you’ve never visited, consider this Tracie your tour guide! Plus, we’ll talk to Fountain City Fintech’s Zach Pettet, who reveals a few of the interesting FinTech apps and ideas coming out of Kansas City. And helping us answer your questions, we welcome from LaceyLangford.com… Lacey Langford, and from SteveStewart.com, you guessed, Steve Stewart.

PLUS, ever think about taking your unique talent and making it your full time job? Our Kansas City guest announcer Carrie Olsen not only will fight Doug for his job, but she’ll also share her story about founding CarrieOlsenVO.com and becoming a voiceover artist working with major brands!

We’re also excited that in every city we had a Stacking Benjamins band! Our rockstar band in Kansas City? It’s none other than guitar prodigy extraordinaire (plus son of Tracie Fobes)…Garret Fobes.

…and of course, we were joined on stage by our guest co-host, the co-founder of Blooom, Chris Costello.

It’s a really fun episode in front of a lively crowd who braved some pretty bad weather conditions.
