Clement is a bright, dedicated, highly motivated young coach on a bright, dedicated, highly motivated staff that wants to build on the success of what Mike LaRosa (now at West Chester) built during his winning tenure.

From HS in Philly at Roman Catholic to D2 superpower Millersville to JUCO to the NE-10 to summer ball kingpin of the Juice Pigs to trying to build his own facility to travel ball coach - Noah has already done many things in the game -- and with his drive and determination, he'll do much more. And if you know Noah, he's NEVER shy about sharing his opinion either! It all makes up for a fun, quick moving episode of JBS!

Joining us this episode is Mike LaRosa, Director of Brewing Operations at New Trail Brewing in Williamsport, Pennsylvania. Opened in April of 2018, New Trail has become one of the most talked about breweries in the state in its relatively short lifespan. Part of that success can be attributed to our guest, LaRosa’s long and impressive resume in the beer industry. We chat about this and what led him to New Trail, as well as distribution updates, collaborations, and – of course – how the brewery has navigated the challenges of COVID. In Happy Fun Time, Wayne hosts a round of origial-flavor, no-nonsense, Libation or Fabrication. All this and more, while we sip on a selection of New Trail brews, that showcase the breweries chops beyond their hugely popular lineup of IPAs. Do you love Beer Busters? Of course you do!

In this episode we interview Mike LaRosa, founder of Coworkaholic, co-working expert, and a professional who has traveled the world working in various roles from design to operations, staffing/recruitment and marketing. We dive into his journey and discuss the ins and outs of entrepreneurship and the "9 to 5" lifestyle. Find out more about Mike LaRosa @coworkaholic on instagram and coworkaholic.com.

Mike LaRosa is the Publisher and Coworkaholic in Chief. Self-diagnosed as coworking obsessed since 2013, his love of shared workspaces has taken him to over 500 spaces in 35+ countries around the world. To pay the bills, he's a partner at AgoraRDM, a real estate development and management consulting firm. In his spare time, he produces the Miles to Go and Boarding Area podcasts. Back in January 2018, Mike gave a talk at Nomad Summit. The original title was: Coworking – Accelerated Serendipity, Motivation, and Community. The intention was to provide attendees something different from the more instructional presentations of HOW to run a business as a digital nomad - you can watch it here on YouTube. What Mike didn’t realize at the time was that he was actually providing tips, tricks and instructions on what NOT to do. Just by using his real-life as an example. This wasn’t the biggest audience Mike had spoken in front of, but it was the first time he’d be telling a story, rather than presenting industry trends or data. That story ended up becoming “How Coworking Saved My Life”. Since then, I’ve heard from many people letting me know how they finally decided to go to a coworking space. And, how coworking really did help them, whether it be personally or professionally.

In this episode, Becky talks with coworking consultant and founder of coworkaholic.com, Mike LaRosa, who also happens to be an expert on making the most of earning and spending airline miles earned through strategic spending on credit cards. Mike describes growing up in Washington D.C. doing all the things that your teachers tell you to achieve the American dream and then explains how the coworking industry saved his life, after discovering that his post-college job as an events manager in the corporate world was not for him.
