Welcome to Episode 6 of Season 3 of The R.A.C.E. Podcast. Today I am in conversation with Robert Raben, President and Founder of The Raben Group. Robert is a dynamic individual with a heart that matches his passion for his work. There are many jewels and “odes to the greats” within our conversation and I really hope that it is one that leave you inspired to continue in action. A special thank you to Robert for his work and his time.
