Kurt Faires learned early that average effort = average results... a principle he’s carried through every season of life.

In this episode, Kurt shares why he earned a law degree but waited nearly 20 years to practice, how his career in private investing and business turnarounds ultimately brought him to Chattanooga, and how he went from running marathons to being told he had just 4 months to live… twenty years ago.

Kurt Faires is a Corporate Attorney at Chambliss, Bahner & Stophel, P.C and you can connect with him on LinkedIn (linkedin.com/in/kurtfaires).
