I listen to every podcast, Saturday morning shows, HotSeats, etc. The information and ideas I learn from each one. I may only receive a nugget of information, or feel encouraged that I am not the only one going through something.

The podcast and fb group has been life altering. I always felt like I would never know enough to hang my own shingle and employ people, but here I am, killing it. Lots of actionable steps for working on mindset, business (some I had to go outside of law to learn) and really gathering attorneys who are willing to share and lift up others, as opposed to tearing other attorneys down. I first heard about the podcast on Ernie the Attorneys podcast and how they were doing amazing stuff. And they continue to do so. Now if we could bring back maxlawcon I’d be over the moon.
