Designing Your Firm Around Your Life feat. Cristina Hughes

Are you trapped in the day-to-day logistics of your law firm, dreaming of a practice that scales without consuming your entire personal life? Discover how to ruthlessly prioritize your goals, empower your team to solve problems independently, and shift your mindset from a solo technician to a true CEO.

In this episode of From Esq. to Owner, Jordan is joined by Cristina “Tina” Hughes. Cristina is an immigration attorney, founder of a seven-figure law firm, and an executive coach who intentionally structured her multi-million dollar practice to support a lifestyle centered around family, competitive cycling, and freedom of travel.

Jordan and Tina dive deep into the elite athletic mindset applied to business growth, the incredible results of tripling consultation fees to attract ideal clients, and why stepping away from a firm for weeks at a time forces your internal systems to mature… and thrive.
