But as she learned more about entrepreneurship and business strategy, she realized that selling physical products wasn't where her true passion lay.“I created a business I don't actually like. I don't like having a physical product. I don't necessarily want to be tied down to this model that I currently have and I'm not really energized towards growing this,” shares Dina Cataldo in Episode 183 of You Are a Lawyer.Rather than forcing herself to continue with something that didn't excite her, she pivoted. She applied what she had learned from running a business to a field she was deeply passionate about—coaching. Now, through Be A Better Lawyer Coaching, she teaches attorneys how to work smarter, manage their time more effectively, and build fulfilling careers without burning out. Her experience highlights that side hustles aren't just about extra income—they're a way to experiment, grow, and ultimately find the work that truly lights you up.LISTEN TO LEARNHow to set boundaries, take control of your time, and eliminate overwhelmWhy mindset shifts are the key to breaking free from burnout and stressHow to create a legal career that supports your personal and professional goalsWE ALSO DISCUSSDina's journey from prosecutor to full-time coach for lawyersThe importance of prioritizing yourself—before your career forces you toHow small changes in your routine can transform your productivity and well-beingJoin the FREE mailing list!Get behind-the-scenes content from You Are A Lawyer. 1) Visit www.youarealawyer.com2) Add your email address to the Subscribe pop-up box OR3) Enter your email address on the right side of the screen4) Get emails from me (I won't fill your inbox with junk)!Interact with You Are A LawyerKyla Denanyoh hosts the You Are A Lawyer podcast.

Today I welcome back Lori Danecke, a dynamic coach skilled in NLP, quantum release process, hypnotherapy, and Reiki. Lori's got an inspiring story about how her life did a 180 when she realized she wasn't living the way she wanted to. Even though on the surface she had the perfect setup—a marriage, kids, and grandkids—something was missing. Three years ago, she dove into personal development, getting herself a coach, setting goals, and ultimately finding the courage to walk away from a life that wasn't making her happy.Lori talks about how this journey started rather unexpectedly with her wanting to improve her golf game. That drive opened up a whole new realization about how she was relying too much on external achievements for happiness. Once she started focusing on her mindset, things turned around. Now, she helps other women who feel stuck or unheard to recognize their worth and step up their game in life.We chat about the fear of change—how people often worry about losing friends if they grow and change. But Lori highlights that real friends will back you up no matter what. She's all about expanding comfort zones gradually, so it feels natural rather than terrifying. This episode is a reassuring reminder that it's okay to want more from life and to take the steps toward living authentically and happily.About the Guest:Lori Danecke is a dynamic force in the world of personal transformation and empowerment.

How often do you beat yourself at work when you make a mistake? How frequently do you compare yourself to others or feel competitive with your coworkers? How many lunch breaks, bio breaks, or dinners with family and friends have you skipped because something "urgent" came up at work? Here's a fun fact - high performers struggle to be nice to themselves at work. But the truth is, the NICER you are to yourself in your demanding corporate role, the more sustainable success you will create in your career (not to mention the better you will feel every day at work and the indispensable you'll be to your company, clients, and teams).
How often do you find yourself doubting your own value at work? What if there was a way to regain control, communicate your worth, and feel truly confident in your career?
Are you feeling uncertain about your job or career future? Is fear of layoffs, reorganizations, or market shifts making you overwork and second-guess yourself?

Ever feel like your thoughts about money are running the show—and not in a good way? You're not alone. From family influences to societal expectations, your brain is like a sponge soaking up everything about money, creating beliefs that might be keeping you stuck. But here's the good news: you don't have to stay stuck. In this reboot episode, I'm sitting down with Kara Loewentheil—J.D., Master Certified Coach, host of the hit podcast Unfck Your Brain*, and author of Take Back Your Brain. Kara is a powerhouse when it comes to rewiring how you think, and this episode is packed with practical strategies to help you finally shift your money mindset. Here's what we're diving into: Why your brain is wired to think negatively about money—and how to reprogram it. The Thought Ladder: a simple, powerful tool to change how you think about money. How to escape the scarcity mindset and start making confident financial decisions. Why hiding what you buy isn't the answer—and how to stop the shame cycle.

Hannah Finrow's journey to becoming a Master Certified Coach offers valuable insights for executive coaches. Her emphasis on authenticity and "being" rather than just "doing" highlights the importance of personal growth and self-awareness in coaching. Hannah's approach demonstrates that effective coaching goes beyond techniques and tools; it's about creating a space where clients can explore their true selves and unlock their potential. The podcast underscores the significance of listening and intuition in executive coaching.
