Show Notes

In Episode 5, The Dad Corp has an opportunity to sit down with Sean Hailey, who is an International Tax Expert and Partner at a Global Consulting firm, as well as an entrepreneur who owns Comet Mixed Martial Arts gym in Fairfax, VA. 

It was a ton of fun and we talked about EVERYTHING from the mania of the Coronavirus to how polarized politics are to Facebook debates to Mixed Martial Arts and gym ownership during a pandemic to how fast kids grow up, dealing with teenagers, and Sean's views and principles he wanted to instill in his children. 

He is an exceptional father and husband, successful father and entrepreneur, and overall great man. One that we are honored to call a friend. We hope you enjoy!
