That was it!!!! Lance couldn't take it anymore. When that Easter brunch customer who asked Lance for pickles but complained they were cut the wrong way when he received them, Lance made a decision at that moment to return to college. In this episode, hear how that early pivot point kicked off a journey that, funnily enough, ends (so far) with Lance becoming the Assistant Director of Pickleball at a brand new indoor-only pickleball facility in Chantilly, Virginia, called Pickleballerz. From working with at-risk youth in a group home to teaching in elementary school to making tennis and pickleball fun for active adults, Lance in this episode opens up about his career journey and shares how he learned to protect his professional happiness while growing on a personal level along the way.
