In The Widow, his 52nd novel and counting, author John Grisham returns to one of his cherished topics: lawyers. But not the type of lawyer one would hire if they'd like to keep their money safe. Simon Latch is a small town lawyer sick of equally small cases, until he finds himself in charge of drafting a will for an enormously wealthy widow. Will Simon keep her wealth an untouched secret, or attempt to turn a profit for himself? In today's episode, Grisham talks to NPR's Sacha Pfeiffer about this legal thriller-turned-murder mystery, and the age-old lie that every lawyer tells at least once.To listen to Book of the Day sponsor-free and support NPR's book coverage, sign up for Book of the Day+ at plus.npr.org/bookofthedayLearn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

Watch the full video on YouTube here.Are you a law firm owner looking to understand the importance of connection? In this episode of the Maximum Lawyer Podcast, Tyson interviews Sam, an entrepreneur and leader of Nashville's Entrepreneur Center. Sam shares his unconventional journey from studying history to hotel management, nonprofit work, and founding multiple businesses. He emphasizes the importance of hospitality, community, and authentic relationships in business, drawing lessons from both corporate and local experiences.  Sam talks about how important community and connection is to success. For him, success is directly related to the depth of the community. People just want a place to belong and it is crucial for businesses to thrive when they have other people or other businesses supporting them. Whether it's through networking or partnerships, building connections and maintaining a community of support will make or break success. Sam provides some advice to listeners about building better client relationships. One way is getting to know other client businesses. Once you get to know other clients, their business and what is important to them, you are able to understand them and their work, which can help build trust. Relatability is important in the legal space and it can really help build that bridge between clients and can create great relationships over time.Listen in to learn more!5:19 Lessons from Hospitality9:06 Community and Belonging in Business12:20 Corporate vs. Local Business Culture16:52 Consistency and Service in Hospitality17:38 Practical Tips for Client Communication25:11 Building Community: Safety, Growth, and Meaning26:46 Rituals for Team and Customer Bonding45:28 Product-Market Fit and Customer Discovery51:06 Bad Business Advice to Avoid53:37 Finding and Working with Co-Founders57:33 First Hires and Building a Team 1:02:02 Best Advice for New Law Firm OwnersTune in to today's episode and checkout the full show notes here. Connect with Sam:Website  Linkedin 

Time for our last installment of live interviews from Coffee Fest 2025. This time from Orlando, FL USA! We are talking with four awesome professionals about everything from training and tasting, Florida coffee culture and barista work - to career dreams coming true through hard work and faith, and empowering your baristas with distributed management!  First we are talking with Claudio Martinez! For Claudio, coffee has never been just a drink, it is part of his soul, rooted in his family's 70-year heritage in Honduras. That connection was reignited in Thessaloniki, Greece, where, under the mentorship of Tony Sebastian of I Heart Coffee Roasters, he embraced the beauty, tradition, and community that coffee represents. His first hands-on experience came in a small drive-through coffee shop in Ellendale, North Dakota, owned by a close friend. As a young barista, Claudio discovered the joy of serving others one cup at a time. That spark guided him forward, leading to opportunities with global icons such as Lavazza, where he worked as a trainer and educator, and later with List + Beisler, where he shared exceptional coffees as a green trader with roasters across the country. Each step nurtured his gratitude and reinforced his belief in coffee as a bridge between cultures and communities. Today, as the driving force behind Golden Bush Coffee, Claudio channels that lifelong passion into supporting food and beverage communities throughout Florida and beyond. His mission is grounded in humility and purpose, guided by the belief that coffee is never just about what's in the cup—it is about people, stories, and the connections it creates. Links:  https://goldenbushcoffee.com/ https://www.instagram.com/goldenbushcoffee/   Next up we feature Vanessa Jaramillo! Vanessa Jaramillo is the Regional Events & Operations Coordinator for Florida Coffee Culture, where she helps connect and celebrate the people behind Florida's growing specialty coffee scene. As a Colombian-American, Vanessa's connection to coffee began long before she became a barista — she visited origin before ever working behind a bar. After discovering specialty coffee in Australia during her gap year, she returned to Florida with a deep passion for community and storytelling. With three years in the coffee industry, Vanessa has immersed herself in every part of the craft — from cuppings and throwdowns to competitions and community events. She's driven by the belief that coffee is a universal connector that brings people together from all walks of life. Links: https://www.flcoffeeculture.com/ https://www.instagram.com/floridacoffeeculture/ We then turn to chat with Maria Esther Lopez Thome! María Esther is the Co-Founder and Co-Creator of Coffea School, a Coffee & Tea Training Center located in Miami Gardens, Florida. Lawyer, with Master in Tax and Administrative Law. Q-Instructor. SCA Authorized Trainer in the entire Coffee Skills Program, from seed to cup. SCA-ReCo Fellow. SCA Technical Standard Committee Fellow, 2016-2018. CQI Q-Processing Professional. CQI Quality Evaluation and Post-Harvest Processing Assistant Instructor. CVA Program Trainer. Has traveled the world teaching about coffee: Venezuela, Peru, Ecuador, Colombia, Brazil, Argentina, Uruguay, Chile, Ethiopia, United States. Passionate about coffee and the incredible relationships that growth in within. A sustainability believer, always willing to learn more.  Links: https://coffeaschool.com/ https://www.instagram.com/coffeacompany/?hl=en Finally we round off the episode with a wonderful conversation with Katherine Morris! Katherine Morris is the Owner and CFO of Cherry Coffee Company in Fort Worth, Texas, which includes Cherry Coffee Shop, a values-driven neighborhood café, and Novel Coffee Roasters, a specialty roastery with a focus on intentional sourcing and private-label partnerships. With over 18 years of experience across finance, nonprofit, and hospitality, Katherine blends operational know-how with a people-first approach to leadership. At Cherry, she introduced a shared management model that empowers baristas to lead key areas of the business — from coffee development to inventory — helping create a resilient, collaborative team culture.

Ryan Kimler is the founder of Net Profit CFO and host of the Net Profit Podcast. He and his team help law firm owners understand their numbers, make better business decisions, and build more profitable and sustainable practices by using accounting and finance to give firm leaders clear information they can act on, so their businesses stay financially healthy and have the resources to grow. WHAT'S COVERED IN THIS EPISODE ABOUT LAW FIRM PROFITABILITY Law school teaches lawyers how to practice law, not how a law firm makes money. Many attorneys work hard, bill hours, build relationships, and still don't really know how the business side works. The truth is, partners and firm leaders usually want younger lawyers to understand this—they just don't always talk about it unless someone asks. When you understand how the money moves through a firm, everything gets clearer. You can see what makes a matter profitable, what slows things down, and how your work contributes to the bigger picture. It also gives you insight into the decisions that drive compensation and advancement. In this episode of The Lawyer's Edge, Elise talks with fractional CFO Ryan Kimler about the business of law and why every lawyer should understand it. They break down how law firms actually make profit, why busy doesn't always mean profitable, how pricing and staffing decisions affect results, and how lawyers at every level can use financial information to make smarter choices about their careers. 2:18 – Why good legal work doesn't automatically translate into compensation 4:12 – The silent profit killers: time leakage, realization, and collection rates 8:26 – Two lawyers bill the same hours. One generates more profit 12:13 – Lawyers get promoted into leadership without ever learning the business of law 15:02 – Why firm leaders are relieved when associates ask how the business works 18:16 – What financially healthy firms track that struggling firms ignore 21:17 – Lawyers lose money doing their own admin work instead of delegating 27:21 – A simple way to know when it is time to hire help 30:39 – The pricing mistake that leaves money on the table at many firms 35:20 – Ryan's biggest advice for lawyers who want to earn more MENTIONED IN MONEY MATTERS: WHAT EVERY LAWYER SHOULD KNOW ABOUT LAW FIRM PROFITABILITY Net Profit CFO | LinkedIn Ryan Kimler on LinkedIn The Net Profit Podcast Get connected with the coaching team: 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.

Attorney Christopher Brandlin shares his harrowing journey from botched intestinal surgery and pharmaceutical dependency to healing through carnivore nutrition. After suffering severe complications from what should have been routine colon surgery, Brandlin rejected conventional medicine's next recommendation to remove his remaining intestines. Instead, he turned to the carnivore diet and found healing at the Paleo Medicina Clinic in Hungary.Now a newly-minted PhD and congressional candidate for Nevada's 3rd district, Brandlin brings a unique perspective as someone who has experienced both the failures of the medical system and the power of metabolic healing. His platform focuses on reducing pharmaceutical influence in politics, mandating nutrition education for medical students, and funding research into ketogenic diets for chronic disease treatment.The conversation spans Brandlin's background as a competitive bodybuilder, his legal career specializing in mold litigation and medical malpractice, and his unconventional preparation for congress through activities like professional bull riding training. Host Dr. Philip Ovadia and co-host Jack Heald explore how grassroots health movements can challenge institutional medicine and create policy change from within the system.This episode offers insights into the intersection of personal health transformation, legal advocacy, and political reform, while highlighting the growing carnivore community's influence on public health discourse.BIG IDEAIf you go to a doctor and your doctor immediately reaches for the prescription pad and tries to prescribe you medication without asking about your diet or your lifestyle, you don't really have a doctor - you have a drug dealer.ContactWebsite: https://www.chrisbrandlin.com/Website: https://brandlinlaw.com/Send Dr. Ovadia a Text Message.

A lot of lawyers assume that making more money will make leaving easier. In reality, the opposite often happens. Once you are in a high-paying legal job, it can feel like there is no other path that will work. People outside the profession are usually surprised by this. They assume lawyers have endless options, but many lawyers feel they have to hang on to what they have because there may not be anything else that fits.See show notes at formerlawyer.com/289

Lawyers usually like the law. The more the better. But in addition to his life as a top corporate lawyer, Philip K. Howard has made a second career out of criticizing the invasion of law into American society. In books like The Death of Common Sense, Life Without Lawyers and his latest, Saving Can-Do, Howard argues that a uncontrolled thicket of legal red tape is undermining innovation in America. The lawyer's central thesis is against the law: America has morphed from a can-do nation into a can't-do society where individual judgment has been replaced by legal central planning, and where citizens must ask lawyers for permission before acting. Too many lawyers and too many laws, Howard says, are transforming America into a dystopia caught between Brave New World and Nineteen Eighty-Four. But isn't that a bit rich, perhaps even Orwellian, from the Senior Counsel at one of America's most illustrious law firms?Keen On America is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.1. America's transformation from can-do to can't-do spirit Howard argues America has abandoned individual judgment and self-reliance for a system where citizens must seek legal permission before acting. The “spirit of America” — the ability to make choices and associate freely — has been replaced by legal central planning.2. Law has become a secular religion Rather than a practical tool for ordering society, law has become something Americans worship and defer to reflexively. People can no longer make basic judgments about character, competence, or risk without consulting legal frameworks — transforming citizens into dependents.3. The legal profession needs radical reduction Howard believes America has far too many lawyers acting as gatekeepers in daily life. His solution isn't reform but elimination: get lawyers out of routine human interactions, contracts, and decisions. Let people negotiate directly and make their own judgments about trust and risk.4. This isn't partisan — it's about human agency Howard rejects the “conservative” label, arguing both left and right have created their own legal straitjackets. Progressives impose legal controls through regulation; conservatives through litigation and status quo protection. His concern transcends ideology: can individuals still exercise judgment and take responsibility?5. The contradiction is the point Howard embraces the irony of a successful corporate lawyer attacking his profession. He's spent his career in BigLaw precisely because he understands how the system works — and that insider knowledge fuels his conviction that legal overreach is suffocating American innovation and freedom. The question isn't whether he's hypocritical, but whether he's right.Keen On America is a reader-supported publication.

In India, carrying a Bible to a meeting—or even offering a Hindu tea and cookies—could be construed as illegally "enticing" that Hindu to change his or her religion. Under anti-conversion laws currently enacted by 12 of India's states, such "enticement" can result in a long prison sentence. And once charges are filed against a pastor or other Christian, there is no presumption of innocence; it is up to the accused to prove their innocence. Sister "Joti," a human rights lawyer in India, has worked on numerous religious freedom cases. She will tell listeners about 80 pastors currently in prison, accused of "forcible conversion." Listen as Joti shares how the courts have tried to navigate the seeming opposites of a constitutional promise of the freedom to practice and propagate one's religion and state laws that require a person to notify the government, in advance, of their conversion. She'll also tell how she and her coworkers are advising pastors and churches to document interactions with Hindus and even record their sermons in order to create an evidence trail against possible future legal challenges. Joti knows her work could put her in danger, yet boldly continues in what God has called her to do. "The work impacts real lives and real people," she says. "I am here to serve, for as long as I can." Pray for Christians in India to be bold in showing love to their neighbors, and for lawyers like Joti on the frontlines serving persecuted Christians in the court. The VOM App for your smartphone or tablet will help you pray daily for persecuted Christians throughout the year, as well as provide free access to e-books, audiobooks, video content and feature films.

Jesus had a pretty damning word in his day for some of the practicing lawyers among His people. Today, I explain why I think they apply to many Christians practicing law today and why the people of God need to know what they are doing. Why? Because Jesus said his people were being "hindered" by the lawyers of his day.Support the show: https://www.factennessee.org/donateSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The actions of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, better known as ICE, have divided the country. Many believe that the Trump administration's crackdown on illegal immigration and violent crime is making the country safer. On the other side, there has been a resistance across the United States with communities standing up to ICE's intimidating tactics, which include anything from unmarked vehicles, masks concealing ICE agents' identities, to arrests outside courtrooms, and a lack of due process. This has led to controversy and legal challenges.  So do ICE's actions go too far? Or is ICE making our country a safer place to live? And are these ICE raids protected and legal? On this episode of Lawyer 2 Lawyer, Craig joins Professor Daniel Kanstroom, founder of the Boston College Immigration and Asylum Clinic, as they spotlight immigration law and ICE. Craig & Dan take a look at the legalities behind the actions of ICE, the constitutionality of ICE raids, the lack of due process, and the impact ICE is having on citizens and non-citizens of the United States.

Lawyer Up - Did You Call Me A Karen?

Congratulations to Tuesday's election winners. For me it was a practice moment: feeling joy and hope, and not turning those into something else with regard to the losers. Which is a practice I can't do without my basic, present moment attention practice. Which always begs the question of how to cultivate that. If mindfulness is present moment attention, courage, and grace, how do we cultivate the first one?It's simple (and not easy): we give ourselves time for stillness. To me this is mostly like giving myself a treat every day. Mostly but not every time, because sometimes I struggle. I eye my meditation cushion warily, as if it's dragging me away from the fun. But actually, sitting down anyway is always the right choice for me. Even if I set my timer for just five minutes, I feel relief. Why? I'm not forgoing my practice, for one – commitment kept. I'm continuing to re-wire my brain to stay in the present moment, where the science says happiness lies – and who can't use a little more happiness right now, even after Tuesday? And, I'm being kind to myself, which makes me kinder to others, including…everyone, which to me is worth all the rest.
