Ep 44: Chris Hastings (Chicago Sport & Social)

Painless Podcast episode 44: Chris Hastings (President/Partner, Chicago Sport & Social Club) Chris planned to be NBA or NFL commissioner, and life took a different turn. He actually technically oversees dozens of leagues now and 130,000 participants, but it’s in the recreation space instead. How did this one-time Division III “possession receiver” carve this different path? What are his recommendations for others looking to break in or find their way? Is he sure he doesn’t want to be a pig farmer? Hear it all on Painless Podcast Episode 44.
