David Jenyns, author of SYSTEMology and Systems Champion and one of the leading voices on building systems-driven businesses, joins Steve Riley on Great Practice, Great Life. Having helped thousands of business owners break free from day-to-day operations, David brings a proven, practical framework that law firm owners can apply immediately. Too many law firm owners become the hero at the center of their own business. Every question, approval, and client issue lands on their desk, and while it feels necessary, the firm is not scaling. It is orbiting you. And that quietly limits growth, profitability, and delegation. If you are constantly interrupted, fielding every decision, and feeling like your law practice cannot function without you, this conversation speaks directly to the leadership challenges inside modern law firm management. David explains how to shift from technician to true owner by building systems that free you from daily chaos. David walks through his complete seven step framework for building effective law firm systems, starting with capturing what is already working, mapping a clear Critical Client Flow, and resisting the urge to optimize before documenting. They also dig into a real-world example from Crow Estate Planning, an actual law firm that implemented this framework, so you can see exactly how it plays out in practice. He also explains why many firms stall when they jump straight to improvement instead of building a repeatable baseline first, and how that mistake limits long term scalability. They explore how documenting systems improves time management for lawyers and creates the foundation for smarter adoption of law firm technology, including AI. A major focus of the episode is the Systems Champion, the leadership role that transforms systemizing from a good idea into a sustainable law firm business strategy. For attorneys who want to grow a law firm without becoming the bottleneck, this role is often the missing link, and as David explains, it is already evolving into the Systems and AI Champion, the person who will determine how well your firm competes in the years ahead. If you are committed to building a more scalable, systems-driven, modern law practice and ready to step into stronger law firm leadership, this episode delivers practical insight you can apply immediately. -------- In this episode, you will hear: Why lawyers become the hero at the center of their firms and how that creates burnout The seven-step SYSTEMology framework to capture and document what already works Defining the critical client flow to reveal bottlenecks and hidden profit leaks Why documenting before optimizing unlocks delegation and scale The role of a Systems Champion in driving real implementation and culture change Turning interruptions and recurring problems into system improvements Using AI as leverage by applying it to clear, documented processes -------- Subscribe & Review Never miss an episode.

Do you want to generate ideas quickly, without overthinking, without requiring perfection, and without using AI tools? One-page mini-zines are great for brainstorming and exploring things with both speed and depth. In this post, I want to show you how I use this medium not only to structure our Haven zine, but also to develop its topics and prompts. Mini-zines can be a great tool to carry in your back pocket (literally!) for processing, planning, and expressing yourself in different contexts It often helps me when my mind is drawing a blank, and I want a low-stakes way to expand how I think about parts of life that feel stuck and in need of a shake-up. At the end, we will do a quick, easy exercise together to get some creative juices flowing without using much brainpower, if you’re up for it. https://youtu.be/CFzQZcNf4QA What is a mini-zine? If you’ve never seen one before, a mini-zine is folded and cut to form a booklet you can hold in the palm of your hand. My favourite way to do it has eight panels that become pages. It is also reversible, so you can use sixteen pages from a single sheet of paper. The nature of zine-making is that there are no rules. As long as you have something to write with, you can turn a piece of paper into a mini-zine. No extra tech or tools required. Here is the basic folding method I use Folding a One-Page Mini-Zine Fold the paper in half lengthways. Fold that in half. Fold it in half again. Unfold it all and fold it like a booklet. Cut the fold down the middle halfway to the intersection of the fold across. Open it out and squeeze it to form a diamond. Push it together and flatten. Fold again, and you have a booklet you can flick through. When I use mini-zines to generate ideas, I keep them in this booklet format and treat each panel as a separate page. As you will see if I number each page, this does not necessarily put the pages in the most obvious places. You get used to it after a while. This format has been great for this collaborative community project in The Haven because it gives us limits. We set a six-week window for development and production, and we have sixteen pages to fill, including the cover and back. We use a simple prompt and let our imaginations take hold. Why Mini-Zines Work For Generating Quick Ideas For me, the core element that makes this work so well is its limits. One of my biggest obstacles to ideas is the blank page. The paradox of freedom is that when we feel too free, we often end up searching for rules anyway or staring at a blank page forever. Eight or sixteen panels are perfect numbers for setting limits on idea generation. Not enough to be overwhelmed, but not too few to feel pressured by the need to be perfect. When we are aware of the limit, we are free to stop once we reach it. Our only task is to keep generating ideas until we reach the number. Quantity matters more than quality at this stage. We know we can refine and iterate later. A quick exercise to try (10 Minutes) We can do a simple exercise with a blank mini-zine. Go through and number each page like I showed earlier. Set a timer for one minute. On each panel, write down as many things as you associate with the number as you can. Don’t edit, self-censor, or overthink it. Let your intuition lead the way. Reset the timer and do the same for each numbered page. When you’ve finished, flick through the pages and see what you notice: What catches your attention as you go through the pages? What were you feeling and thinking while doing this? (Did it feel simple? Were you hesitant or resistant? Did you feel rushed or able to move at your own pace? Were some easier for you than others?) What do you feel drawn to explore next as a result of this? There are five more exercises like this that I will share in future posts. I will break them into three broad categories: brainstorming for quick creative ideas, brainstorming for helpful questions, and brainstorming for fresh options when facing challenges and decisions. If you fancy joining us to collaborate on a future issue of Coming To Our Senses, The Haven doors are always open.

Welcome to the Health Marketing Collective, where strong leadership meets marketing excellence. In this episode, Holly Spring, Vice President of Corporate Communications at Included Health, joins host Sara Payne to dig deep into the art and science of narrative clarity in health marketing. With a remarkable career shepherding communication through seismic changes in healthcare—from EMR transitions and clinician voice tech adoption to the unpredictable landscape of COVID-19 and the ascent of virtual care—Holly Spring offers unparalleled wisdom for marketers tasked with making complex ideas accessible, resonant, and actionable. In today's episode, Sara and Holly break down what makes a healthcare narrative truly effective, how to recognize when a legacy story no longer serves, and the steps needed to create internal alignment so that messaging is consistent both inside and outside the organization. The discussion also explores the realities of innovation and boldness in a jargon-laden industry, and reveals why simplicity, authenticity, and trusted voices matter most—especially during times of disruption. We'll learn how Included Health built—and continues to evolve—a one-page narrative that is both aspirational and grounded, and get a behind-the-scenes glimpse of practical adoption strategies, from CEO partnership to company-wide engagement. Rounding out the discussion, Holly shares her perspective on AI's role in marketing strategy, the power of feedback loops, and actionable recommendations for leaders navigating the noisy health marketing landscape ahead. Thank you for being part of the Health Marketing Collective, where strong leadership meets marketing excellence. The future of healthcare depends on it. Key Takeaways: Clarity and Simplicity Win During Disruption: Holly emphasized that, especially in transformative moments, more information is not necessarily better. Instead, marketers should focus on clear, simple messages delivered through trusted voices. Avoid the trap of excessive complexity and lean on simplicity to help audiences—whether internal teams, clients, or consumers—truly understand and connect with your story. Building a Timeless, Elastic Narrative: Great narratives answer the basics: who you are, what you do, and the value you deliver. Holly shared Included Health's approach of selecting familiar but meaningful words that are aspirational enough to grow with the company, yet grounded in today's reality. Successful messaging is both “speakable” (easy for everyone to use in conversation) and emotionally charged—capable of rallying both employees and customers. Buzzwords Alone Don't Differentiate: In a marketplace saturated with terms like “integrated care” and “whole person health,” standing out requires more than industry jargon. Holly described how Included Health extends buzzwords with clear, ownable language—such as “mind, body, wallet support”—to spark genuine curiosity and make their value proposition concrete and memorable. Internal Alignment Is a Process—Not an Event: Achieving strong company-wide adoption of a new narrative demands intentional rollout: from partnering with the CEO and leadership, to department-level rollouts, all-company meetings, and hands-on workshops. Holly advised that embracing new language often feels awkward and requires letting go of comfortable legacy terms, but it's necessary to position the organization for where it's going—not where it's been. Harness AI for Both Efficiency and Strategy—And Use It as a Feedback Loop: Holly described Included Health's integrated approach to AI: using tools like Writer for generating content “catalogs” that meet both audience needs and channel requirements, while...

Trying to stick to complicated time management systems without any breaks can eventually lead to burn out. But if you stop organizational efforts altogether, your life can become a stressful mess. In this episode, Cal taps the wisdom of an elite running coach to devise what he calls one-page productivity: a minimum time management system, meant to be run for limited periods to help you recharge, but that also maintains just enough organization that you can avoid disaster. He argues such maintenance modes should be an important part of any time management practice. Cal then answers listener questions and concludes by reviewing the books he read in June 2025.Below are the questions covered in today's episode (with their timestamps).
