Welcome to Counsel Brew!

Meet Byron Prescott. They call him Boss. Who is “they” you ask…this episode unlocks the answer.

Byron’s favorite brew? While Byron is probably one of the healthiest people we know, he admittedly drinks 6 cups of coffee daily although he likes to think it’s really just 3 cups since they are half-caf.

In this episode, you will learn that sometimes you have to “adult” quickly, and get in there and sound like a lawyer. Other times, you have to take calls at 3 a.m. from your client who tells you they are in Vegas with a suitcase full of cash and need your help. And whatever you do, don’t put your house on stilts.

What’s Byron’s secret sauce? Pure grit. Grinding away until you make the deal happen. And filling his cup by counseling people with PTSD.
