  • #242: Permission Not To Grow Your Law Practice 26.05.2026 16min
    Grow your law practice. That's the general rule. But what if you're working hard but not enjoying it? What if you're resisting growth? And what if you know you don't really want to grow any further (yet feel the push to do so, regardless)? Listen for a reality check around what you truly want and giving yourself permission NOT to grow. Today is the last episode of Season 5. We will be back this Fall with Season 6. In the meantime, be sure to join my newsletter (Success Without Sacrifice), follow me on LinkedIn and catch up on old episodes. *** Success Without Sacrifice: https://www.coursecorrectioncoaching.com/connect/ Follow me on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/heathermoulder/ The post #242: Permission Not To Grow Your Law Practice appeared first on Life and Law Podcast.

  • #240: Values Alignment Isn’t Safe (That’s the Point): Let’s Talk About Antisemitism 12.05.2026 1h 9min
    I talk a lot about values alignment (aligning your law practice to your values). But what, precisely, does that look like in practice? Here's the thing: Values that cost you nothing probably aren't values — they're just words you aren't really standing behind. Yet the cost is worth it. Because NOT aligning to your values costs something, too. That's why I was immediately drawn to Ariella Cohen Coleman. She's a lawyer who built a values-aligned law firm and a nonprofit to support the Jewish community. She speaks openly about antisemitism. Even if it makes others uncomfortable. Even though it could cost her something. She is the real thing. This conversation is about so much: - What it actually takes to build a values-aligned practice. - Lawyer wellbeing (and why it's related to peak performance). - The responsibility lawyers have to speak up about antisemitism (and the role we can play to change course). This conversation is powerful. It's important. Be sure to listen. *** Join Success Without Sacrifice https://www.coursecorrectioncoaching.com/connect/ The post #240: Values Alignment Isn’t Safe (That’s the Point): Let’s Talk About Antisemitism appeared first on Life and Law Podcast.
