Guest Bio: Sarah Centrella, Author
attachment-2Sarah Centralla, a single mom from Portland living on food stamps, completely changed her life from poverty to living her dream in just 18 months. After her husband abandoned her and their three small children in 2008, Sarah discovered the keys to success; thanks in part to friendships she formed with several Oregon Football players including Kenjon Barner, De’Anthony Thomas and Lavasier Tuieni.

She began chronicling her journey to recreate her life in 2010 through her internationally popular blog. Her story has impacted hundreds of thousands worldwide, through her simple eight-step plan for achieving success known as the #HBRMethod. 

Sarah’s new book, Hustle Believe Receive, features 51 inspiring stories of people who believe in her message, each of whom she personally interviewed for this book. They include: four-time Emmy nominated producer of CBS’s The Talk, Marc Anthony Nicolas; NFL star running back, Jonathan Stewart; NBA power forward, Anthony Tolliver; fashion designer, Kithe Brewster; best-selling author, Laura Munson; middleweight world boxing champion, Daniel Jacobs; CEO, Ryan Blair; Morgan Stanley executive director, Kimberley Hatchett; Portland resident and Barre3 founder, Sadie Lincoln; among many others.

Hustle Believe Receive shows how these stories are connected, and how Sarah, a formerly unknown single mom from Oregon, manages to bring them all together in the most unlikely way. 

Sarah’s story has appeared on The Steve Harvey Show and CBS's The Talk, as well as in the New York Times. With more than one million combined followers, likes, and views through her social media platform, Sarah is a sought-after speaker who is relatable to a large, diverse audience. She’s scheduled to speak at Powell’s in Portland, Third Place Books in Seattle, Barnes & Noble in Eugene and Los Angeles, and New Renaissance Bookstore in Portland during the months of January and February, 2016.
