Manage episode 481285663 series 2648641
What if building a thriving law firm wasn’t about holding on tighter — but about letting go of control, trusting your team, and scaling with purpose?
In this episode of The Game Changing Attorney Podcast, Michael Mogill sits down with Josh Nelson, founder of Nelson Elder Care Law and recipient of the 2024 SELECT Firm of the Year award.

Why empowering your team — not doing it all yourself — is the key to scaling impact
What it takes to evolve your systems, strategy, and mindset to support long-term growth
How personal passions can fuel purpose — and turn success into service
