In today's episode we bring you a good old fashioned renaissance man, Jim Avery! Jim has LOADS of personal experience from his youth to today. Finding himself in situations of homelessness as a teenager, enlisting in the USMC and doing multiple tours overseas, taking on college to law school to even holding representative office in Missouri today - Jim's story is full of wonder and humor to boot. If you are looking for a successful personal injury attorney who actually takes the time to become friends with his clients and get them the best results possible, we invite you to sit back and get to know Jim!

Amanda Clifton is a bjj black belt, instructor in for women at Revive BJJ, an avid Crossfit practitioner and coach, and a VP of Tech/Business Operations at Centiene Tech.

And yes, she is the one who worked him multiple times in a three minute round. A competitor through and through, Amanda's story is one of winning and finding balance not only as a high level athlete but as a dedicated partner and leader to many.

In today's episode we are pleased to bring your Shawn Estep - principal attorney at the Estep Law Firm specializing in estate planning and making sure your assets are secure to your best interest before passing. This is the second estate planning attorney we have featured on the show and we were so grateful for his time and know how on the subject. Shawn's story actually begins with him as an engineer - having gone through the math and science heavy degree to only find a deeper burning passion elsewhere in the world of legal. This led to him embarking in law school while already enveloped in his career and family life. The decision since has been nothing short of rewarding and helped shape his perspective on family, legacy, and mortality.
