Building People, Building Futures - Lisa Chastain

In this inspiring episode, we sit down with Lisa Chastain, CEO of Gospel Rescue Mission in Tucson, Arizona, and the visionary leader behind the nationally recognized Center of Opportunity. A powerhouse in the nonprofit world, Lisa has transformed how communities support the homeless and vulnerable—turning charity into empowerment and crisis into opportunity.

Born and raised in Tucson, and the granddaughter of GRM’s founder Ray Chastain, Lisa was once on a path toward traditional business success—until she answered a deeper calling to serve. Over the past 25 years, she’s led initiatives like Hope Fest and now manages over 50 nonprofit partnerships through GRM, blending compassion with strategic leadership to create sustainable, life-changing impact.

Her vision extends far beyond Tucson. Lisa is working to establish Centers of Opportunity throughout the country and has already developed a comprehensive handbook to help other cities launch and sustain their own transformative centers.

If you’re ready to see how one person’s vision can inspire a nationwide movement, this episode will challenge and motivate you to lead with both heart and purpose. This is more than talk—it’s transformation. Tune in, rise up, and let’s live the No Limits Life—together.
