Let’s hop right in. Our guest today is a revolutionary powerhouse, Gwen Griggs, lawyer and trailblazer of eliminating the billable hour. We all know the love-hate relationship we have with billing. [00:33] Not having a background in law has served Gwen well. In fact, she decided she wanted to be a lawyer after learning about the Brown versus Board of Education case at 11 years old.
