About today’s guest
Having coached high school football for over 27+ years now (on both the east and west coast), Kurt Hines has found that football (no matter where you are), is so much like life... It's all about connecting with, working with, and empowering those around you! His passion is to do just that... To work with individuals, teams, and businesses, to create winning cultures, and to EMPOWER those he works with, to do, be, and to accomplish more than they ever thought possible!
