Get to know us…
For over a decade, Len and Sara brought faith, encouragement, and laughter to mornings on 95.5 The FISH in Cleveland, Ohio. When the station was sold, they knew their journey wasn’t over—so they took their show to the podcast world to keep the conversation going!
As family-focused hosts, Sara—a proud wife and mom of two beautiful daughters—and Len—a devoted husband, dad to three wonderful girls, and now a proud grandpa—understand both the joys and challenges of everyday life
Their simple rule? Do your best and let God do the rest!
Now, they’re bringing that same uplifting energy to the Start Your Day Positive Podcast.
In just under 30 minutes a day, we’ll catch you up on 3 of the biggest news stories, take a quick trip through today in history, share trending topics, fun giveaways, and real encouragement to lift your spirit. Start your day with faith, hope, and a smile—you’ll be ready to take on anything.

Meet Len
Hey there—I’m Len, and I’m one half of the Start Your Day Positive podcast team (yep, the one with the deeper voice and the stream of dad jokes).
For over 20 years, I had the joy of co-hosting mornings on 95.5 The FISH in Cleveland. Those years brought a lot of coffee, early alarms, and incredible connections with listeners. Along the way, I also worked behind the scenes in programming, marketing, events, and helping businesses tell their stories in authentic and impactful ways.
These days, I get to keep doing what I love—lifting people up with faith, joy, hope, love… and a good laugh. Humor isn’t just an add-on—it’s often the spark that opens hearts and shifts perspective. I’ve found that a well-timed smile or shared chuckle can change the tone of a day, open the door to deeper conversations, and remind us that God is in the middle of it all—even the messy, funny, ordinary moments.
I also speak at events, consult on messaging and media projects, serve as a spokesperson for some really great businesses, and I’m just about finished writing my first children’s book. It’s playful, meaningful, and full of personality—kind of like me.
Thanks for stopping by. If you’d ever like to connect, share an idea, or talk faith, media, or snowflakes (seriously—long story), I’d love to hear from you.

Meet Sara
Hi friend—I’m so glad you’re here!
I’m Sara: a wife, mom, podcast and TV host, wellness enthusiast, and joyful follower of Jesus. I love to laugh, learn, travel, and encourage others through real stories and relatable faith. Whether I’m behind a mic, in front of a camera, writing on my blog, or speaking to a room full of women, my heart is always the same—to help people start their day (and life!) on a more positive note.
My greatest joy is my family. My husband and I love adventuring with our daughters—from hiking mountain trails in Vermont and Maine to discovering hidden gems across the U.S. Travel is more than a passion—it’s a way to connect, grow, and create lasting memories. That’s one of the many reasons I love our Podcast Listener Travel Club, inviting others to join us on unforgettable trips like the Footsteps of Paul tour in Greece or our Fall Foliage Cruise through New England. We go on several adventures each year, and you’re always welcome to come along—check them out at here!
