290: How to Increase Billable Hours (and Have a Life) with Special Guest Jaqueline Figueroa

Today we're talking to Jacqueline Figueroa who will tell you how to increase billable hours AND have a life.

Jackie's not just an accomplished insurance defense attorney at a national firm billing 2400 hours a year.

She's also a dedicated parent, a marathon runner, and was promoted to partner at her firm.

When Jackie and I started working together, it was a very different story. She didn't think being a partner at her firm was even in the cards for her.

Jackie's will inspire you and give you actionable tips if you're feeling overwhelmed by the demands of the legal profession.

In this episode, Jacqueline spills the beans on how she:

• got out of overwhelm and learned how to increase her billing to calmly bill her firm's 2400 hours requirement while still making time for her passions and family
• navigates the challenges of harmonizing her career and personal life by implementing effective time management techniques
• emotionally regulates in a high-stress profession: Jacqueline reveals the impact it has had on her life both professionally and personally.

Even if you don't need to bill 2400 hours a year or you have a flat rate model for your firm, you don't want to miss this episode.

Listen in because Jackie gives you what you need to help you calm the overwhelm and take control of your practice.
