From the car wash to Chicago nightlife to restaurant ownership — this is the REAL story behind the hustle.
On this episode of No Lion No Bull, we sit down with a Chicago entrepreneur whose journey spans multiple businesses, multiple industries, and different eras of the city’s hustle.
We get into the car wash business, running nightlife, promoting events, building relationships, making money, losing money, learning the business, and ultimately making the move into the restaurant industry with MiMi’s Craft Kitchen.
We also bring @patronchris into the conversation as we talk about the people, relationships, business moves and experiences that helped shape the journey.
This isn't a conversation about overnight success.
It's about WORK, OWNERSHIP, NETWORKING, SURVIVAL, REINVENTION AND LEGACY.
Chicago business. Chicago nightlife. Chicago culture. Real stories.
NO LION. NO BULL.
