EP63: Brandi Chastain and Haley Rosen - from the pitch (field) to the pitch (boardroom)!

Make Your Mark

What's more impressive than two accomplished women's soccer players? How about if they are both successful entrepreneurs scoring goals in the business world! "You have to be willing to accept the information, you have to be willing to work hard. You have to be motivated to go to practice with an open mind. You have to be willing to be criticized. Only you can do those things." - Brandi Chastain

Another big time coup for #TheClubroom and the Make Your Mark podcast to have both Brandi Chastain AND Haley Rosen discuss their path from the pitch (field) to the pitch (boardroom)! Brandi and Haley each scored big in this Make Your Mark podcast recording of our recent Clubroom event as we covered so many important topics, including a blueprint on growing the visibility of women’s sports, how to leverage your athletic career to business success, and so much more!

“In business you can fight and advocate for yourself, and you should speak up and raise your hand” – Haley Rosen
