Shea Hillenbrand: The Power of Words
In this episode of Championship Leadership, we had an incredible interview with Shea Hillenbrand, former Professional Baseball Player, a 2 Time MLB All-Star, and a dynamic Speaker. After successfully entering the world of professional baseball back in 2001 and gaining all accolades as an accomplished player, Shea Hillenbrand seemed to be unfulfilled with his life. He decided to walk away and call it quits after his years in the arena of sports and during the prime of his career. He then set foot into buying a thirty-eight-acre horse farm in Arizona and accumulated hundreds of farming exotic animals to influence and impact the underprivileged children in the community. But life doesn’t go smoothly and easily as it is, the ranch went into foreclosure and Shea faced some difficulties. Soon after, he comes to realize the reason behind his life choices and has to confront it one way or another.
