Good Morrow my fellow classmates. My name is Jeff Padgett although most people just call me Padgett. You can call me whatever just don't call me late for supper. I've practiced law for the last 25 years mainly criminal defense but I have done things in the music world and at one time was an NFL agent. But now I want to get into book publishing and teaching in addition to some crafty POD. I anticipate starting a community in the future. It'll be a mash-up of law and how law affects EVERY industry and aspect of our lives. Until then, I'm just going to hang out and soak up some new skills knowledge. Good to meet Y'all. Have a blessed one.

One of the most rewarding parts of providing support and training for people is seeing how people use what they’ve learned in real life, so I’m going to start sharing a weekly testimonial - some will be for coaching and some will be when I have got my geek on! If you’ve had a win, big or small, and you’re happy for me to share your feedback, feel free to message me. I read every single one, honestly they mean a lot to me and I hope it gives others the courage to take the first step into their learning journey 🥰
