  In this raw, unedited solo episode, I get real about what it actually means to "bet on yourself" every single day.

  The Craziest Month of My Law Practice | #8 27.06.2026 8min

  A completely raw, unfiltered solo episode.It is Sunday, May 31st, and I’m taking a much-needed walk through Trillium Park to decompress. May was easily the most challenging, complex, and chaotic month I’ve experienced since starting my law practice over two years ago. Ironically, it was a fantastic month for revenue—but the sheer volume of unpredictable real estate hurdles tested me like never before.From 24-hour banking holds threatening a house purchase to closing dates being pushed four separate times due to seller complications, it was non-stop problem-solving. But the wild card? Calling an opposing law office to ask why their clients slept in my client's newly purchased house the night after closing.At the end of this video, I also share a long-overdue update about my podcast. I'm dropping the analysis paralysis around the "perfect name," and finally putting it out into the world.If you're an aspiring business owner, legal professional, or just like seeing the messy reality behind entrepreneurship, thanks for riding along.Cody's socials:YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@cody_malloyInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/cody_malloy/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@cody_malloy/Chapters:(00:00) Unwinding at Trillium Park(00:30) My Most Difficult Month in Law Practice(01:21) Case #1: Fighting the Bank for a 24-Hour Hold(02:30) Case #2: The Closing Date That Kept Moving(03:36) Case #3: The Ultimate Real Estate Nightmare(05:25) "Why Are the Sellers Still Sleeping in the House?"(07:06) Reflecting & Planning a Massive Content Pivot(07:26) The Cody Malloy Podcast is Finally Happening
