What if the very thing holding your law firm back… is you? In this episode of The Game Changing Attorney Podcast, Michael and Jessica Mogill tackle three of the most common (and costly) growth blockers law firm owners face — shiny object syndrome, unproductive comparisons, and the belief that “no one can do it like I can.” If your firm has plateaued, if you're burning cash on a bloated team, or if you've convinced yourself that scaling personal touch is impossible, this conversation will hit home. It's not about working harder — it's about thinking smarter. Here's what you'll learn: Why adding new practice areas too early can hurt your firm and what to do instead How to tell if your firm is overstaffed or simply underperforming What it really takes to grow a relationship-driven firm without relying only on yourself You don't need more practice areas, fewer people, or a copy of yourself to grow. You need the discipline to focus, the courage to optimize, and the humility to let go. ---- 00:00 – Intro 08:11 – Why diversifying too early stalls growth instead of driving it 10:15 – The hidden cost of chasing new ideas without follow-through 11:38 – How to find untapped growth by maximizing what you already have 14:35 – Headcount comparison traps: When cutting costs is the wrong move 15:04 – The performance gap between A players and everyone else 18:07 – The “no one can do it like me” mindset that keeps founders from scaling 20:23 – Letting go of ego: How Michael discovered others could do it better ---- Links & Resources: James Clear – Author of Atomic Habits Athletic Greens (AG1) Dude Wipes Under Armour ---- Do you love this podcast and want to see more game changing content?

In this encore episode of The Game Changing Attorney Podcast, Michael Mogill sits down with performance coach and best-selling author Todd Herman to explore the transformative power of alter egos.

What's the #1 thing holding you back from leading confidently? Take the free quiz to find out: https://womenoffaithinleadership.com/quiz/ Have you ever felt stuck between a rock and a hard place in your leadership role? One moment, you're fielding expectations from senior leadership, and the next, you're navigating tension within your team. If you're a middle manager or in any leadership role where you're both leading up and managing down, this episode is for you. Middle management is one of the most challenging places to lead from. You're not “at the top,” but you're also not “just a leader” anymore. You carry the weight of implementing company-wide decisions, while still advocating for your employees and customers. You're both bridge and buffer. The challenge? When things go wrong, you're often the one stuck trying to defend a policy you didn't create, or explain decisions that you weren't part of. But here's the truth: God has positioned you here on purpose.And there is a way to lead with integrity, grace, and strength, even in the tension. In this episode, I walk through 3 biblical and practical strategies to lead both up and down—without losing yourself in the process. Reflection/Action Steps in the episode: 1. Reflection: Where in your leadership are you prioritizing image over integrity? 2. Action Step: Practice “translating” big-picture leadership goals into meaningful, actionable direction for your team. And when speaking up to senior leaders, bring solutions, not just problems. 3.Prayer Prompt: “God, help me to lead faithfully in the unseen. When I feel stretched thin, remind me that my strength comes from You, not from others' recognition.” Book mentioned: John Maxwell 360 degree leader: https://amzn.to/4o2htXM Subscribe to the Weekly Newsletter Subscribe to the weekly newsletter for faith-based leadership tips, inspiring stories, early bird event invites, and exclusive updates.

When's the last time you were UNCOMFORTABLE, OR PUT YOURSELF IN A POSITION TO BE UNCOMFORTABLE in your work? Discomfort = growth, and comfort = stagnation. The people doing the most growing are the ones that submit to spiritual and personal growth, like having a group of fellow Christ followers, who challenge them and hold them accountable, in their professional life, their leadership and business. You know what they say, if you're not growing, you're dying. The wisdom of Proverbs 27:17 says As iron sharpens iron, so a friend sharpens a friend. John Maxwell said it best: If we're growing, we're always going to be out of our comfort zone. What will YOU do this week, in your professional life, to be challenged and GROW?

If everything feels “fine” at your firm, you might already be in trouble. In this episode of The Game Changing Attorney Podcast, Michael and Jessica Mogill tackle the quiet killer of growth: comfort. As we hit the halfway point of the year, many law firm owners start to coast — but that's exactly when progress stalls. If your firm feels like it's plateauing, your goals are slipping, or your team's feedback just isn't landing, this conversation will help you reset, refocus, and move forward with intention. Here's what you'll learn: Why waiting for the perfect time to restart is keeping you stuck right where you are How comfort creates blind spots that slowly stall your law firm's growth What it takes to deliver feedback that inspires real change without sacrificing standards Comfort is the enemy of progress. This episode is your wake-up call to get back in the cold plunge and keep pushing forward. ---- 00:00 - Intro 02:52 - The halfway mark of the year and the trap of waiting until January 04:39 - What hitting 20,000 Peloton minutes teaches about consistency and momentum 06:29 - Why small wins today matter more than perfect starts tomorrow 10:02 - How to know when your "fine" firm actually needs outside perspective 11:32 - Why comfort is the most dangerous threat to your law firm's growth 14:05 - How to give direct feedback that actually drives change 17:06 - The difference between radical candor and harmful apathy 18:35 - Which feedback to apply — and what to ignore ---- Links & Resources: The Hard Thing About Hard Things by Ben Horowitz Radical Candor by Kim Scott Peloton Annual Challenge ---- Do you love this podcast and want to see more game changing content?

Send us a textWhat does it really mean to carry the responsibility of leadership? Dive with us into "The Burden of Leadership," where we explore the profound impact leaders have on everything around them.Leadership isn't just a position—it's an influence that shapes outcomes in every sphere of life. As John Maxwell famously stated, "Everything rises and falls on leadership," and architect Jumoke Odunowo powerfully describes it as "the thread that runs through everything." When we examine any situation—thriving or failing—the quality of leadership invariably emerges as the determining factor.The most compelling revelation in this discussion centers on the concept of sincerity in leadership. Did you know the word "sincerity" comes from Latin "sine cera" meaning "without wax"? In ancient Rome, less skilled sculptors would hide imperfections in marble statues with wax. True masterpieces were certified "sine cera"—containing no deception, no cover-ups. This powerful metaphor illuminates authentic leadership: presenting yourself genuinely, without embellishment or exaggeration. True leaders don't add what isn't there—they carefully reveal what should be.Purpose-driven leadership creates sustainable influence because it stems from genuine values that translate into virtuous actions. Exceptional leaders don't simply live their lives—they lead their lives with discipline and commitment. The distinction is profound and visible in everything they do. When you subject yourself to this form of leading rather than merely living, extraordinary results naturally follow.Join us in exploring how to embrace leadership from a place of purpose, and discover why the principles of authentic leadership remain unchanging across time. Share your leadership journey with us and connect on social media @Amakri Isoboye or email amakrigaribaldi@gmail.com to tell us how this episode resonated with you.Support the showYou can support this show via the link below;https://www.buzzsprout.com/1718587/supporters/new
You don't scale by working harder. You scale by thinking bigger and leading better. In this special episode of The Game Changing Attorney Podcast, we're re-airing a powerful conversation between Crisp Founder & CEO Michael Mogill and Chris Dreyer of the Personal Injury Mastermind Podcast. Together, they unpack what it truly takes to grow a legal business through chaos, complexity, and scale to reach nine figures.

In this Episode: In this episode of the "Achieve Results NOW!" podcast, hosts Mark Cardone and Theron Feidt welcome back Barb Stone, an entrepreneur, leadership development coach, trainer, speaker, and now an author and TEDx speaker. They discuss Barb's journey since her last appearance on the podcast four years ago, highlighting her significant professional growth. Barb shares her background, starting with 25 years as a senior female leader in manufacturing after earning her MBA. Despite her success, she felt a desire for "more" than just climbing the corporate ladder. This led her to a journey of self-discovery, studying resiliency and positive psychology, getting involved with John Maxwell, and eventually becoming a leadership coach. She emphasizes that her motivation to become a coach stemmed from her own challenging journey as a first-generation American of Polish descent, wishing she had a guide earlier in her life. The conversation then shifts to Barb's new book, "So Much to Drool About: Lessons for Living Large," which combines her coaching wisdom with her passion for Great Danes. She explains how the idea for the book was planted by a client in 2020 and how it evolved into a collection of inspirational stories, each accompanied by an illustration and a wisdom statement. Barb stresses the importance of following one's passion, even if the profitability isn't immediately clear, noting that the book is an investment in herself and a way to share her message. She believes that when you commit to your passion, opportunities will arise, such as speaking engagements and partnerships. Barb also discusses her target audience for the book, stating it's for anyone from four to 104 years old who seeks inspiration or loves animals. She shares her experience visiting an elementary school to discuss social-emotional learning using her book, demonstrating its broad appeal. She emphasizes that the book's creation process itself, with its many iterations and challenges, mirrors the life lessons it teaches about growth and perseverance. A key takeaway from the discussion is Barb's belief in "leading ourselves first," and how life can "happen through us" when we share our wisdom and experiences to help others. She encourages listeners to "follow the breadcrumbs"—the small signs and opportunities that appear along one's path, especially for aspiring entrepreneurs. To find out more about Barb Stone and her book, listeners are directed to her website, Barbstone.me, where they can purchase the book, sign up for newsletters, and find links to her social media profiles. The hosts commend Barb for her bravery in pursuing her passions and putting her work out into the world Barb Stone Bio: Barbara Stone is a Syracuse, NY-based Entrepreneur, Author, Leadership Development Coach, Trainer, and Speaker, dedicated to empowering individuals to define and achieve their authentic version of success. Her journey is marked by resilience and a passion for helping others. After a distinguished 25-year career in senior leadership roles within manufacturing, including Executive Vice President and CFO, Barb realized she was living someone else's definition of success. This led her to an intensive study of resilience and positive psychology, understanding that true opportunities are created, not accidental. In 2018, Barb launched Build Your Path LLC. As a leadership development coach, she now passionately guides individuals, teams, and boards to discover their authentic selves and build a life that truly reflects who they are, challenging the notion that "looking good and getting it right" should lead to performance anxiety. Her personal journey, including overcoming challenges like alopecia and the unexpected loss of her first husband, Bob, has further deepened her commitment to resilience and personal growth. Complementing her coaching and speaking, Barb is the author of her first book, "So Much to Drool About: Lessons for Living Large," published in April of 2025. Through heartwarming stories inspired by her beloved Great Danes, she shares gentle wisdom on living in the present, embracing life's adventures, and finding joy and gratitude. Barb's extensive commitment extends into her community. She is a founding member of the CNY Women's Fund and actively contributes to various non-profit organizations, including the NY State Mentoring program and the WISE Women's Business Center. She is a certified ICF coach (CPCC, PCC) and a certified Organization and Relationship Systems coach (ORSCC), and her impactful message has earned her a spot as a TEDx speaker. Through her multifaceted work, Barbara Stone continues to empower others to forge their unique and fulfilling paths.

Send us a textFreedom, discipline, and intentional growth—these seemingly contradictory concepts form the powerful foundation of sustainable success in business and life, as explored by Jared Ledford and Eric Olson in this reflective Steel Kings episode.Drawing inspiration from Independence Day, the hosts peel back the surface of entrepreneurship to examine what truly drives fulfilling work. "If you get to the point in your life where you do what you love every day, you'll never work a day in your life," Jared reflects, connecting the passionate joy of kids playing baseball in "The Sandlot" to the satisfaction they've found in the shed and steel building industry.The conversation takes a compelling turn as they discuss the concept of "pruning"—intentionally cutting away what's not bearing fruit to create space for new growth. Both hosts share candidly about difficult business decisions that initially felt like risks but ultimately cleared the path for their current success. "When you clean your slate off, now you can write on it," Eric observes, highlighting how removing unproductive elements creates clarity and new possibilities.Perhaps most practical is their insight on maintaining consistency through the inevitable ups and downs of sales cycles. Rather than riding emotional highs and lows, they advocate for steady discipline—doing the same productive tasks daily regardless of immediate results. As John Maxwell wisely noted and Jared quotes: "The secret to your success is found in your daily routine."Community involvement emerges as another cornerstone of their approach, with both hosts actively engaged in local chambers of commerce and events.

FAN MAIL--We would love YOUR feedback--Send us a Text MessageHave you ever stayed silent when something didn't seem right, just to avoid rocking the boat? Our latest Mojo Minute explores this universal tendency through a captivating story about a high school physics class, a covered telescope, and thirty-nine students who claimed to see planets that couldn't possibly be visible.This short but powerful episode unpacks a lesson from John Maxwell's "How Successful People Think" that perfectly illustrates how social conformity can blind us to obvious truths. When a physics teacher set up a telescope for students to observe planets, student after student pretended to see celestial bodies despite the lens cap remaining on the telescope! Only the second-to-last student had the courage to speak up about seeing nothing but darkness. This simple act of honesty revealed what now seems obvious - nobody could have seen anything at all.The courage to question, to seek clarity, and to speak up when something doesn't add up isn't about being difficult or contrarian. It's about approaching life with genuine curiosity and a sincere desire to understand. We explore how asking questions with the right tone and attitude can transform our relationships, deepen our understanding, and ultimately lead to a more flourishing life. When we break free from the pressure to go along with popular consensus and instead pursue authentic understanding, we often discover truths that have been hiding in plain sight.Key Points from the Episode:We explore how courage in questioning conventional wisdom leads to a flourishing life through a powerful story about a telescope demonstration gone wrong.• Professor Benno Mueller Hill's high school physics class telescope story where 39 students pretended to see planets despite the lens cap being on• How we often "go along to get along" instead of speaking up when something doesn't seem right• The importance of asking clarifying questions with genuine curiosity rather than to win arguments• Why questions asked with the right tone and sincere attitude can lead to better understanding• Commitment to asking good questions as a path to creating a flourishing lifeOther resources: Want to leave a review?

FAN MAIL--We would love YOUR feedback--Send us a Text MessageWhat makes successful people think differently? In this powerful episode of Theory to Action, we explore the strategic thinking methods of John Maxwell from his book "How Successful People Think" that can transform how you approach challenges in your life.Maxwell teaches us that strategic thinking takes what seems overwhelming and breaks it down into manageable pieces. "Anything becomes simpler when it has a plan," he writes, echoing the wisdom of Navy SEALs Jocko Willink and Leif Babin who emphasize keeping things simple for maximum effectiveness. When we break complexity into clarity, we create actionable pathways forward instead of remaining paralyzed by overwhelm.The second key to successful thinking lies in developing systems—which Maxwell defines brilliantly as "good strategies repeated." His personal filing system of 1,200 categorized quotes, stories, and articles serves as a perfect example of how organization creates freedom. Rather than starting from scratch each time he prepares a speech, Maxwell's system allows him to quickly access relevant material. This parallels our own robust searchable database at Team Mojo Academy, where over 500 episodes of wisdom await your exploration.These two principles—breaking down complexity and creating repeatable systems—form the foundation of strategic thinking that leads to a flourishing life. Like virtues and positive habits, good strategies repeated consistently yield compounding results over time. What complex challenge could you break down today? What system might help you repeat your best strategies? The path to thinking like successful people is clear: simplify the complex, systematize the effective, and watch your life transform.Key Points from the Episode:• John Maxwell's filing system with 1,200 files demonstrates effective organization for speaking and writing• Complex issues become manageable when broken down through strategic thinking• Simple plans are the most effective plans, as taught by Navy SEALs Jocko Willink and Leif Babin• Successful people create and use systems to repeat good strategies• Good strategies repeated function similarly to good virtues and habits practiced consistently• The Team Mojo Academy website features a robust search function across 500+ episodesBe sure to check out our show page at teammojoacademy.com, where we have everything we discussed in this podcast, as well as other great resources.Other resources: Want to leave a review?
