Gathered with my friends on the Pickleball court, our laughter echoes through the air as we immerse ourselves in the excitement of this new and captivating game. The sound of paddles meeting pickleballs becomes a rhythmic symphony, a testament to our growing mastery of the sport. Friendly banter and spirited competition unfold as we seamlessly transition between opponents and teammates, turning the court into a playground of shared triumphs. Each well-placed shot is met with cheers, and we strategically navigate the court, showcasing precision and collaborative efforts. From the thrill of engaging rallies to the joy of shared victories, Pickleball becomes more than just a game—it becomes a canvas for unforgettable moments and the celebration of lasting friendships. With every serve and volley, we enhance our skills, turning casual play into a skillful dance on the court. The strategic elements of the game add layers of excitement, making each match a unique challenge that strengthens our camaraderie and sportsmanship. eChai Ventures Startup Pickleball Night

Many people know within the events industry that I love pickleball. It seems to come up in every conversation. So much so, that I travel and play in pro tournaments throughout the US. Yes, it’s fun. I am able to meet some great people and go to much warmer places than Chicago. Best of all it’s super competitive and I get to physically and mentally put it all out on the line at each match and tournament. Why is this relevant to work? What I have seen is the change in the way I approach work. The high level of competitiveness of tournaments, drilling and practicing has also fueled my drive in my work work within sales, customer relationships and new ideas to solve problems. I’m in the best shape I’ve been in physically in the past 20 years and even better shape with my mind at work. Things seem to be clearer than they were before. What does this all mean? I believe this continues to show how important a work/life balance really is, for all of us. How are you refueling your mind and body to excel at your life and work? When you are working non stop, how are you figuring out how to balance yourself in order to be at the top of your game? Take the time out to balance what you do on and off the court and surely you will see the results. #balance #eventprofs #pickleball #worklife Enjoy a little interview I did on my pickleball journey. https://lnkd.in/g7FnSHfJ

I started playing in a pickleball league this morning After playing recreationally for two years, it was time to take it up a notch. It was a blast, even though I lost more games than I won. But now, every Wednesday morning for two hours, I get to indulge in a passion of mine with people who love the game just like I do. Remember: your work will be there when you get back into the office, but your life can too easily slip by. Make sure your priorities are right. #pickleballislife #financialplanning #abbvie
