Heidi is a University of Virginia School of Law graduate and currently works as the Associate Dean for Upper Level Writing at New York Law School. Heidi's journey is one of being thrown into the fire and building resilience through it. Heidi is a Lawyer turned professor and author, speaking on topics that hit home for many law students and lawyers: Introversion, Fear, and how to flourish from it! Heidi and I start right before Law School, where we discuss what went into her decision to enter the University of Virginia School of Law. We then moved into the first year of Law School, which she hated because of cold calls, and her disposition to being introverted. This experience would plant the early seeds for what she would write about later in her career. Heidi would discuss the rest of her Law School experience and beyond. Initially starting in Washington, after some life complications, Heidi would head up north to New York City to begin a new chapter of her life. She would discuss the many experiences she had and the riveting stories that have led her to today. We also spoke about a massive turning point in Hedi's life. After being initially rejected to teach at Chapman University School of Law, she received a call a week before classes saying that they needed her. With no teaching experience, Heidi began her career as a professor, and the rest is history. Finally, we spoke about Heidi's three books (Below!): The Introverted Lawyer, Untangling Fear in Lawyering, and The Flourishing Lawyer. Heidi talked about her inspirations for writing each book and her various jobs throughout different law schools in New York. She expanded on topics such as understanding yourself, processing those freeze-ups, and her system for overcoming introversion and fear. This episode with Heidi illuminates an unbelievably successful career and a story of resiliency in the face of fear and introversion! Be sure to check out all of Heidi's content and books below!

Ever feel like you're constantly juggling multiple client matters at once, switching between tasks, and never fully focusing on any single piece of work? This scattered way of working is more detrimental to your practice than you realize.

This approach not only improves the quality of your work but also enhances the client experience and ultimately leads to a more efficient, less stressful practice.Get full show notes, transcript, and more information here: https://www.agileattorney.com/64

In this episode of Mindful Lawyering we explore the emotional, mental, and physical toll of caregiver roles, particularly in the legal profession, and share practical strategies for managing stress — including seeking support, realigning priorities, and practicing self-compassion. Jordana Confino, a former practicing attorney and founder of JC Coaching and Consulting, is joined by Robbie Margolius, Director of Wellbeing at Arnold and Porter. The episode concludes with a self-compassion meditation led by Nancy Batterman, Deputy General Counsel at NYC's Department of Housing, Preservation, and Development. Sneak Peak: “41 percent of parents say that most days they're so stressed they can't function. And 48 percent say that their stress is completely overwhelming. But compared to other adults, that level is at 20%.” “I think so many of us, especially lawyers, believe that if it doesn't hurt, it's not working. If we're not burning the candle at both ends, we're not being productive. If we're not pushing ourselves to our breaking point, we're not doing enough. Because that's how we've been doing it. That's how we've been operating for so long.” “ We're talking about getting help from others and helping other people, but it's really also important to think about the connection between our self care and the care that we can provide for others. So it's that oxygen mask scenario. You've got to put on your oxygen mask first in order to help other people.” Resource: Parents Under Pressure – The U.S. Surgeon General's Advisory on the Mental Health & Well-Being of Parents: https://bit.ly/41CkWSC If you're interested in incorporating mindfulness and well-being into your practice, join the Mindfulness and Well-Being in Law Committee for a Mindfulness Break, Yoga for Lawyers, or its next Book Club.

People who go to law school are some of the most driven, hard working people, but often end up struggling the most financially. Attorneys go through a crazy journey—years of intense study, grueling exams, and relentless hours—only to enter a field where financial stability isn't always guaranteed. The financial aspect of law can be overwhelming, whether it's managing student debt, setting up a firm, or handling the unpredictable income of legal practice.  If trained professionals struggle to navigate these challenges, how well-prepared are you when legal trouble comes knocking? That's where Jess Bailey's journey comes in. Jess, a lawyer who's battled through the financial ups and downs of the legal world, knows exactly what it takes to safeguard yourself—both legally and financially. Through her experiences, she's learned that the best way to stay ahead is to "lawyer yourself up" before trouble arises. How would you navigate the financial complexities of your own legal journey? Have you ever felt unprepared when facing legal matters? What's your next move to ensure you're protected legally? In this episode, Managing Attorney of the Bailey Law Firm Jess Bailey joins me to talk about the crazy journey attorneys go through, why it's so important to “lawyer up” as well as the financial aspect of law.

Happy New Years!  To start off the year right, I wanted to go back to basics: faith through lawyering. My guest is Randy Lee, a veteran in the field, writing on the topic of the Christian lawyer for over three decades. His insights can be found within a body of work (see links here), but the paper we mostly focused on (here) was a book review he did on Joseph G. Allegretti's The Lawyer's Calling: Christian Faith and Legal Practice. Randy teaches constitutional law, professional responsibility, torts and various writing and advocacy courses. Professor Lee has taught previously at the Villanova and University of Pittsburgh Law Schools and in the Harvard University Summer Program.  NOTE: This episode pairs well with the one featuring Jeff Ventrella on his experiences as a man of faith in big law (here). Cross & Gavel is a production of CHRISTIAN LEGAL SOCIETY. The episode was produced by Josh Deng, with music from Vexento.

In this episode, Steve Fretzin and Scott Simmons discuss:Effective time management in the legal professionDeveloping habits and accountability for consistent business developmentBuilding a client-focused business model in lawOvercoming personal and systemic barriers to success in legal business development Key Takeaways:Allocating just 30 minutes weekly to business development can compound into significant progress over time, enabling lawyers to take control of their career trajectory.Transitioning from billable hours to value-based or subscription pricing models requires not just a pricing shift but a comprehensive business model overhaul.Lawyers must use tools like LinkedIn and existing client relationships to secure referrals effectively; over 90% of clients are willing to refer, yet only 8% of lawyers ask for them.Small, incremental habit changes, such as reading a chapter a week or posting on LinkedIn weekly, are more sustainable and impactful than attempting major shifts all at once. "What business development does is give you options, leverage, and control over your career choices. We're not taught this, and.....it's not something covered in law school." —  Scott Simmons Got a challenge growing your law practice?

In this episode, Persuasion and Prejudice: a recording, taken from this year's Rare Books Melbourne, of a lecture from Professor Gary Cazalet on Jane Austen and Lawyering. Perhaps a sign of broader changes to come, technology and artificial intelligence are replacing much of the traditional work of lawyers. Thus, the role of lawyers is rapidly changing. The uniquely human skills of empathy, emotional intelligence, creativity, and self-knowledge will become more important in the practice of law. Gary Cazalet has made the development of these skills a central part of his teaching in law and literature. In this lecture, he explores how reading Jane Austen can help law students and practitioners be better and happier lawyers.

"Cynics often get people wrong, but that doesn't mean it's smart to put faith in everyone, all the time. Skeptics update their beliefs based hundreds of children, and then checked in with them a year later. When it came to depression and friendships, cynical children ended up the worst off, but extremely trusting kids did less well than those in the middle.Why? When judging humanity, both cynics and trusters behave like lawyers in humanity's trial. Trusters represent the defense. They disregard suspicious signs, forget betrayals, and hold on to any evidence of human goodness. Cynics work for the prosecution, explaining away kindness and cataloging every instance of human viciousness. Both attorneys are inclined to ignore half of the evidence, even if they're opposite halves.Lawyering is a fine way to argue, but a terrible way to learn. A growing science finds that real wisdom arrives when people know what they don't know. Likewise, social wisdom doesn't mean believing in everyone or no one. It means believing in evidence—by thinking less like a lawyer and more like a scientist. And despite the different instruments they use, all sorts of scientists share an intellectual tool:skepticism, the questioning of old wisdom and hunger for more information.

In this episode, Steve Fretzin and Jonathan Baum discuss:Transitioning from a big law firm to independent practiceCultivating strong client relationships for career sustainability in lawThe evolving dynamics of legal workPersonal branding and positioning oneself in a competitive legal environment Key Takeaways:Independent lawyers can effectively compete with large firms by assembling specialized teams for specific projects, which allows them to deliver high-quality services while remaining flexible and responsive to client needs.The financial advantages of independent practice are substantial, as independent lawyers can retain up to 99.7% of their billed income, a stark contrast to the lower take-home pay typically seen in large law firms.For lawyers transitioning from big firms, conducting a thorough risk assessment and leveraging existing client relationships can help establish a sustainable practice without relying on a large firm's reputation.The belief that clients require a big law firm's name can be countered by demonstrating that hiring based on a lawyer's individual expertise and client relationships is far more crucial for achieving favorable outcomes. "If you really think that leaving that firm is going to cause you to lose all those clients, I would ask you, are they really your clients in the first place?" —  Jonathan Baum Read Steve's past episodes as Blogcasts—visit now: https://www.fretzin.com/blog/ Thank you to our Sponsors!Rankings.io: https://rankings.io/Rainmakers Roundtable: https://www.fretzin.com/lawyer-coaching-and-training/peer-advisory-groups/ Episode References: The Ezra Klein Show: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-ezra-klein-show/id1548604447 About Jonathan Baum: Jonathan Baum has more than 40 years of experience as a corporate, securities, and finance lawyer, including many years organizing and managing legal teams.

Alright, folks, buckle up! Today's podcast episode is brought to you by the one, the only, Hawk—who, let's be honest, may need an intervention for his microphone. It's loose again, people. If this podcast had a production budget, that mic would have gone the way of Trump's dietitian—a distant memory! After struggling to find a topic that wasn't dark or depressing, Hawk did the sensible thing: he outsourced his job to the internet. Why spend time planning your show when you can let TikTok and Patreon comments drive your content? The man's living the dream, folks!And what did his highly intellectual audience request? The riveting tale of how Hawk adopted Tanner, a Chihuahua-dachshund who picked him like a desperate kid picking his parents at a divorce hearing. Some woman who looked like she wandered off Real Housewives of Beverly Hills tried to snatch Tanner away, but the dog sprinted into Hawk's lap. That's right—straight-up rejected reality TV for a life of podcasting mediocrity. Enter Lola, another dog from the same shelter because clearly, Hawk's building a rescue dog cinematic universe here.But hold on, Hawk veered into weather reports that make CNN look calm. And, as any responsible adult would, he followed up storm devastation with tales of totaling cars as a teenager. You know, like a public service announcement but with more vehicular damage. Kids, don't fall asleep at the wheel, or worse—you'll end up paddled by your Mormon vice principal. Just trust me, Hawk's high school life was like a bad crossover between Fast & Furious and Fast Times at Ridgemont High… except with fewer cool stunts and more cringe-worthy life lessons.

20240905 - Craig Eaton Talks Lawyering Up On RNL by Kevin McCullough Radio

When I think back on being 20 and choosing to be a lawyer, there was a lot of, “why not? That seems like a cool path.” There was less of, “how will this serve?” or “will this contribute to a more harmonious world?”I see now that whether my work created harmony or discord was always the important question.Pema Chodron invites us to ask, “am I going to practice peace, or am I going to war?” That's the question I would ask my 20-year-old self today. It's the question I ask my 65-year-old self as often as I can remember: “Today, will I be practicing peace?”What about you? Are you practicing peace? Or do you wake up each day, ready for war?

Today's LIVE show is in response to the video posted on August 25 by the channel "Washington Gun Law" (Attorney William Kirk) regarding the shooting death of Roger Fortson by a Florida deputy back in May.  The deputy was responding to reports of an apparently violent domestic violence complaint when Fortson responded to the door knock with a gun in hand--at which point the deputy shot Fortson.Kirk had previously concluded that the shooting of Fortson was an outright execution for Fortson having merely exercised his Second Amendment rights. I critiqued Kirk's conclusion that the Fortson shooting was an outright execution on the basis that (despite claiming to be a criminal defense attorney providing legal analysis) he never made a single reference to any relevant Florida use-of-force law whatever, nor entertained any legal argument that might favor the deputy who shot Fortson. It is frankly unimaginable to me that a criminal defense attorney can offer a legal analysis to the public on a use-of-event of high public interest and controversy without even once considering the likely defendant's legal defenses. In my own critique I made actual use of the relevant Florida law that, combined with the facts available, provides a sound foundation for the legal conclusion that the deputy's shooting of Fortson was lawful, if awful. The Kirk video we'll be taking a look at today is apparently in part a response to my critique.Full disclosure: I have not myself watched this Attorney Kirk video, so I'll be seeing it for the first time during today's live stream. So join me for my own LIVE response to Kirk's latest video in this series at 1PM ET!In the interests of full transparency, here's my previous LOSD legal analysis of this unfortunate shooting (along with WGL content links):LOSD: REAL LAWYER | The Roger Fortson Shooting: Awful?

In today's episode, Sarah offers important advice to listeners. While practicing law, she constantly thought about what she wanted to do outside the law. But then her brain would start telling her everything that would make it a bad fit and instantly become negative.Lawyers are just trained to do this, and it's important that you recognize that ahead of time.Stop telling yourself that something isn't going to work before you've actually spent any time looking into it. People start worrying about finances and skills they don't think they have, and begin convincing themselves that it's a bad idea.Sarah calls this “Lawyering yourself.” You take an idea and then prematurely decide it's impossible. See show notes at formerlawyer.com/235
