  • #18 - Michael Noyes: A remarkable life with no arms
    Oct 4 2023

    Michael Noyes was born without arms. But he has lived, and accomplished, far more than most people with all of their limbs. From his childhood of splitting wood on his family’s farm in a small Maine town of 500 people to playing pitcher for his local softball team to riding snowmobiles and driving Kyle around town during his visit to Maine, Michael has adapted and overcome the challenges of life with a humble and grateful attitude. 

    Michael’s journey has also been one of service. He has committed his life to helping others through summer camps that help disabled children, veterans in need, adopting and fostering many children and 30 years of working for two U.S. Senators - all while typing with pencils held between his toes.


    Join Kyle and Michael for an amazing conversation as he shares his inspirational and unbelievable journey.

     
    You have probably never heard of Michael Noyes. After you listen to this episode, you will never forget him.
