Carolyn Elefant has been practicing law for thirty-five years and writing about solo practice for almost as long. In this episode she and Ernie get into how AI is changing litigation — not in theory, but in the cases she's handling right now. Carolyn walks through experiments she's run and posted publicly, including having AI draft the judge's opinion from both briefs before she wrote her reply, and hiding instructions inside a brief to see which AI tools would follow them. One tool refused. One followed them. The third declined the part it considered unethical and went along with the part it considered harmless — which is the interesting one, because it looks a lot like judgment. They also cover which tools she reaches for and when, why she pays for the business version instead of the free one, where a lawyer should start if all of this feels overwhelming, and her upcoming 'Bellwether AI Litigator' conference on September 17 and 18.

In this episode of the Impact 360 Institute Podcast, Jonathan Morrow examines new national data suggesting a significant decline in LGBTQ identification among U.S. young adults, reversing a years-long upward trend. He unpacks what's driving this shift, why it matters, and how Christians should thoughtfully respond in a rapidly changing cultural moment. The conversation begins by framing the importance of understanding culture through a biblical worldview, emphasizing that followers of Jesus are called not only to be grounded in Scripture but also to accurately interpret the times. Morrow highlights recent research, particularly from Jean Twenge and CDC-backed datasets, showing that LGBTQ identification among young adults (ages 18–24) has dropped sharply since its peak in 2022. The episode explores several possible contributing factors behind this trend, including:

Can adults really expand their maxilla? Is treating sleep apnea with a CPAP or mandibular advancement device only MASKING the problem? How does craniofacial anatomy influence airway health, and what should dentists look for? Dr. Dave Singh joins us to dive into CranioFacial Sleep Medicine. He breaks down how structural issues—like a narrow maxilla, high-arched palate, or limited tongue space—can be root causes of sleep-disordered breathing, rather than just treating symptoms.  The episode also touches on controversies in orthodontics and presents evidence supporting interventions once thought impossible in adults. https://youtu.be/WUyeOjKquJU Watch PDP253 on Youtube Protrusive Dental Pearl: Obstructive Sleep Apnea is NOT just a “fat old man disease.” If you're not screening every patient for sleep and airway issues, you're missing a huge piece of their overall health. Snoring, bruxism, and craniofacial anatomy are all connected, and understanding these links can transform the way you approach patient care. Key Takeaways: Mandibular advancement appliances are not a universal solution. While effective for some patients, they often fail to address the underlying causes of airway collapse. Craniofacial sleep medicine focuses on airway etiology, not just symptom control, by identifying why the mandible, tongue, and airway behave as they do during sleep. The cranial base plays a foundational role in facial growth, jaw position, and airway size, directly influencing sleep apnea risk. A retruded mandible is frequently due to developmental and epigenetic factors, rather than being an isolated mandibular issue. Sleep apnea has multiple endotypes—including craniofacial, neurologic, metabolic, and myopathic—requiring individualized treatment planning. Bruxism is not a reliable airway-opening mechanism and may be a primitive physiological response to hypoxia rather than a protective behavior. Tooth wear can be an early indicator of sleep-disordered breathing, and should prompt clinicians to screen beyond restorative concerns. Upper Airway Resistance Syndrome (UARS) can occur even when the apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) is low, particularly in non-obese patients with fatigue, pain, and poor sleep quality. Palatal expansion should be understood as a 3D craniofacial intervention, aimed at improving nasal airflow and airway function—not merely widening the dental arch. Effective care depends on an integrated, multidisciplinary approach, involving dentists, orthodontists, sleep physicians, ENTs, and myofunctional therapists.

☁️We grow up being told to find the “dream job”—but what happens when the dream is really just doing everything for everyone else and all you do is lose yourself in the process? In this powerful conversation with Jennifer Licciardi, we talk about what it looks like when your career (or your life) doesn't fit anymore—and how to start listening to the signs before burnout and resentment take over. Jennifer shares: How her "dream job" became her identity—and why that almost broke her The patterns to watch for when you're stuck in the wrong place Why failure is feedback (not the end) The real choice we face: hard or guilt—stay stuck or bet on yourself How taking one brave step actually built the staircase for others to follow If you've been feeling the nudge that something has to change, this episode is your sign to stop waiting and start moving—with clarity, courage, and community by your side.   Connect with Jennifer: On Social: Instagram Online: https://linktr.ee/jenniferlicciardi Book a 15 min Clarity Call HERE Free webinar from 9-5 to Freedom HERE Jennifer's book Radical Freedom HERE   Click HERE for Early Bird Registration for our Escape Virtual Summit   ------------ ➰Check out our sponsor www.loopearplugs.com and use code KALIBRIGHAM for 15% off* ------------

Click HERE for Early Bird Registration for our Escape Virtual Summit Okay, friend—this episode is tender. It's sacred. It's not easy... but it's important. I sat down with Ellie Ledin from Inheritance of Hope, and we talked about something most of us avoid: death. Not in a scary or heavy way—but in a real, beautiful, and deeply human way. Ellie and her team work with families facing terminal illness, helping them create legacy videos and—get this—legacy songs (cue my tears). But here's the thing: this episode isn't just for people going through the unthinkable. It's for all of us.  Truly.  What they do there is open for any family, any parent, any child -- you don't have to wait.   Because legacy doesn't start when life is ending. It starts in the small, ordinary moments. In this conversation, we talk about: Why our culture avoids talking about death—and why we need to How to start thinking about your legacy now, no matter your season The power of community to carry one another's weight Lighting candles along the way so the darkness doesn't feel so sudden And Ellie's simple but powerful mantra: “Blessed am I.” This conversation moved me. It slowed me down. Made me cry.  And it helped me see things differently. I hope it does the same for you.   Connect with Inheritance of Hope: Online:  www.inheritanceofhope.org On Social: Facebook and Instagram Want to create a Legacy Song?  Complete the registration form HERE   Connect with Ellie: On Social: Instagram Click HERE for Early Bird Registration for our Escape Virtual Summit   ------------ ➰Check out our sponsor www.loopearplugs.com and use code KALIBRIGHAM for 15% off* ------------

She thought she craved stability. So, for nearly two decades, Jessica followed the safe, traditional path—working in banking and trying to build a life that looked steady from the outside. But life, as it does, had something far more colorful in store. Today, Jessica is the owner of Pink and Red Boutique, a thriving business built not from a perfect plan, but from bravery, mistakes, and a deep belief that she'd figure it out along the way. In this episode, we talk about: ✨ How craving stability led to her biggest breakthrough ✨ The mantra that carried her—no fear of not figuring it out ✨ Her caveats to the classic “how can I?” question ✨ Why she honors her early mistakes like badges of growth - all 40 of them! ✨ And how her view of time, success, and systems has radically shifted This is for the woman who's scared to start, unsure if she's ready, or stuck trying to plan it all out first. Jessica is living proof that you don't have to have it all figured out—you just have to start.   Connect with Jessica: Online: www.shoppinkandred.com On Social: @pinkandred.mb     Click HERE for Early Bird Registration for our Escape Virtual Summit   ------------ ➰Check out our sponsor www.loopearplugs.com and use code KALIBRIGHAM for 15% off* ------------

Click HERE for Early Bird Registration for our Escape Virtual Summit In this special birthday episode, I sit down with the man who shaped my life—and modeled what it means to lead with purpose. My dad is a wildly successful entrepreneur, world-class Papa, still-shooting hoops at 74, and forever the “Pied Piper” of any kid he sees. But behind the business success and garden beds is a man who has spent decades learning, leading, and loving others well. In our heartfelt conversation, he shares timeless lessons on: Why hard work still works How to turn weaknesses into strengths Playing (and living) under pressure with grace The importance of vision, persistence, and adaptability How to put God first—not as a business partner, but as the owner Why relationships—not work—are what truly matter most Whether you're building a business, raising a family, or simply trying to live with more purpose, this episode is packed with legacy-level insight.

Pat Gillette is one of the country's leading voices on gender equity in the legal profession. A seasoned employment litigator, rainmaker, and law firm leader, Pat spent 40 years in practice before shifting her focus to empowering women lawyers through speaking, writing, and consulting. She is a sought-after advisor on advancing women and diverse attorneys in leadership and business development. During her legal career, Pat was recognized as a top employment litigator and trial lawyer by Chambers and other industry rankings. She served as a rainmaker and firm leader before leaving Orrick, Herrington & Sutcliffe in 2015 to devote herself to changing the legal landscape for women. She also joined JAMS as a mediator, bringing her deep expertise to complex employment disputes. Pat is the author of Rainmakers: Born or Bred, a research-based exploration of the characteristics that drive successful business development in law firms. Beyond her work in practice, she co-founded the Opt-In Project, a national initiative designed to increase the retention and advancement of women in law firms. She was also part of the 2016 Diversity Lab Hackathon team that developed the Mansfield Rule. WHAT'S COVERED IN THIS EPISODE ABOUT WOMEN AS RAINMAKERS AND LAW FIRM LEADERS For many women in Biglaw, the message has long been you can be a rainmaker or a leader, but not both. Pat Gillette disagrees. In this episode of The Lawyer's Edge, Elise Holtzman sits down with Pat Gillette to discuss why women lawyers must advocate for themselves, step into leadership, and take control of their careers. Drawing on her decades of experience and groundbreaking research on rainmakers, Pat unpacks the systemic barriers that hold women back, the myths about business development, and the practical strategies women can use to break through. She shares why firms must do more than talk about diversity—they must remove the structural obstacles that keep women from developing business and taking on leadership roles. She also reveals how women can successfully build books of business while balancing other responsibilities. 2:02 – Pat's legal career and why she transitioned from practice to advocacy 6:21 – The slow evolution of gender equity in law firms—and what still needs to change 8:09 – The hidden structural barriers that impact women's rainmaking potential 10:55 – How the Mansfield Rule is redefining leadership opportunities in law firms 14:00 – The biggest misconception about business development—and why women are built for it 19:36 – How prioritization and compartmentalization are key to long-term success 22:43 – Why women must actively seek mentorship and sponsorship 27:05 – The simple but powerful career advice Pat gives every woman lawyer: Just ask!

She also participates in mediations and negotiations to effectively resolve disputes before they get to court.

She's repeatedly recognized by Best Lawyers in Canada, in the Canadian Legal Lexpert Directory, and is ranked by Chambers Canada. WHAT'S COVERED IN THIS EPISODE ABOUT LEADING A LAW FIRM As a managing partner of a law firm who still maintains a busy legal practice, you often have to wear many hats, such as leading your firm, making critical decisions, managing different personalities, and ensuring top-tier client service. Connecting with peers who share similar challenges can be invaluable. This is what drew Denise Baker to the Managing Partner Forum's conference at the end of 2024, where she and Elise Holtzman, the host of The Lawyer's Edge podcast, met as faculty members. In this episode, Elise speaks with Denise about the pressing issues, tough decisions, and key leadership lessons she has encountered as a law firm leader. Denise discusses the challenges of training and motivating lawyers, the evolving role of AI in legal practice, the decision to adopt a co-managing partner structure, and the critical importance of addressing toxic behavior within a firm. 3:36 – Key issues that managing partners and law firm leaders face today 6:13 – Use of AI and the importance of carefully weaving it into legal practices 11:48 – Why WeirFoulds decided to adopt the fairly new co-managing partner framework 15:41 – The importance of balancing management responsibilities while in a busy practice 17:28 – How Denise has evolved as a leader since becoming co-managing partner 19:56 – The challenge of managing difficult people and why dealing with toxic behavior in your firm is a necessity 31:01 – Denise's final piece of advice that can pay dividends for your organization's culture MENTIONED IN LEADING A LAW FIRM: HOT TOPICS, TOUGH CALLS, AND LEADERSHIP LESSONS Denise Baker (WeirFoulds LLP) | LinkedIn WeirFoulds LLP | LinkedIn | YouTube Managing Partner Forum | Conference Overview  Above the Law Get Connected with The Coaching Team at hello@thelawyersedge.com The Lawyer's Edge SPONSOR FOR THIS EPISODE… Today's episode is brought to you by the Ignite Women's Business Development Accelerator, a 9-month business development program created BY women lawyers for women lawyers.

She was also the President of the Junior League of Dallas during the League's Centennial year and was recently honored as a top rainmaker by the Minority Corporate Counsel Association (MCCA). WHAT'S COVERED IN THIS EPISODE ABOUT ACHIEVING RAINMAKER SUCCESS Today, it's common for lawyers to move from firm to firm in search of better opportunities. Whether you're staying put for the long haul or keeping your options open, staying connected to your core motivators and mission can be the key to long-term success—both as a partner and a rainmaker. In this episode of The Lawyer's Edge podcast, Elise Holtzman sits down with Christa Sanford, Partner and Intellectual Property Chair at Baker Botts, to talk about the impact of leading with purpose.
