Episode 147: Angie Long of the KC Current

Women Leaders in Sports Podcast

Hello and welcome to the Women Leaders in Sports Podcast...I am your host, Patti Phillips, CEO of Women Leaders in Sports.

Today we have a VERY special guest – Angie Long, Co-owner of the NWSL Kansas City Current. Angie and her husband Chris are not just making an impact on the NWSL and Kansas City, they are creating a legacy for women’s sports. We discuss how it all began, including bringing the team to KC, the hiring of staff, building the FIRST-of-its-kind training facility, and of course, the new best-in-class, first female sport specific stadium in the world - CPKC Stadium...with the home opener just 2 weeks away! The women leaders staff and Board of Directors got a sneak peak of the stadium a few weeks ago - we were blown away! Angie also shares insights on leadership and the journey to leadership; how to make big dreams a reality, and how she balances two full-time jobs and 4 active kids. WOW. Listen in, and remember, We Are Women Leaders.
