Join me for a candid yet also inspirational discussion with Aliza Shatzman about judicial discrimination & the changes needed within our judiciary.

Aliza Shatzman is the President and Co-Founder of The Legal Accountability Project, a nonprofit aimed at ensuring that as many law clerks as possible have positive clerkship experiences.

In today’s interview, Aliza shares her gut-wrenching personal story of having to deal with gender discrimination, harassment, and retaliation by a former DC judge. And how that closed the door to her big legal dreams.

But it doesn’t end there. Today's story is also about courage and resilience.

Here's what we cover:

--> Life lessons around how to be courageous in the face of daunting odds and bounce back after thinking you’ve lost out on your dreams.

--> How victims of judicial discrimination are treated (and why so few file complaints).

--> Why we’re ALL impacted (and our profession is tarnished) by judicial discrimination.

--> The truth about how women in law treat other women when it comes to discrimination (that must be addressed honestly).

--> How you can make a difference to increase judicial accountability.

Is podcasting for lawyers just another legal marketing gimmick? What would you use it for (and what would you even talk about)?

Isn't podcasting too time consuming to make it worthwhile for a busy lawyer like you?

Join me and fellow recovering lawyer Robert Ingalls to get the answers to all of the questions above and so much more.

Like many lawyers, Robert battled anxiety for years from the pressure, long hours, and constant conflict of a litigation career. With no business/marketing background and only a love for podcasts Robert decided to see if lawyers would pay him to help them launch podcasts.

The answer? Yep.

No matter your angle, today's guest and his story is inspirational and packed full of gems I know you'll learn from.

Here's are just a few of those gems:

--> How the the typical lawyer mindset (and our amazing ability to lean in) can work against us.

--> When to listen to your intuition (not just facts).

--> The mindset shift Robert made that transformed his anxiety-ridden mindset into one of contentment (that you can do too!).

--> How to use podcasting as an effective legal marketing, branding and even networking tool.

--> Whether podcasting for lawyers will work for all attorneys (from solo to Big Law lawyer) and why/why not.

Do you sometimes have trouble achieving goals? Not able to commit time to the things you want? Feel like you’re not getting far enough fast enough? At least part of your problem likely relates to one or more mindset blocks.

The other part of the problem? You’re either: (1) unaware of their existence, or
(2) believe they aren’t a problem (because they’re so universal).

The good news is that you can overcome whatever blocks are getting in your way. So long as you understand what they are.

If you’re in the hunt for a new associate you know how crazy-competitive the legal job market is right now. There’s a lot of work and not enough attorneys to get it all done (so it seems). Which has made attorney retention and recruiting difficult (to put it mildly).

So… how can you attract the best talent and fit? What do you need to offer them? And what can you do if you’re at a small or medium-sized firm (who can’t keep up with Big Law salaries)?

Because these questions keep coming up in my conversations with clients and former colleagues, I knew I needed to bring in an expert. Join me today to find out the answers to the questions above (and much more) from Brian Moskowitz of Kenzak Group, a boutique legal talent agency and search firm.

Most successful lawyers I know:

- Aren't any smarter than anyone else.
- Don't have any special marketing, sales or business training.
- Didn’t graduate from the “top” law schools.
- Didn’t start with special connections.
- Don’t come from lots of money.

The real difference between them and everyone else? Their mindset. Today we get into how to change your mindset to be an explorer, trust yourself and take calculated risks. Because that's what it really takes to be successful as a lawyer. And you deserve to have legal success, too.

Tired of overthinking decisions? This episode is for you. Learn how to stop overthinking and be more decisive.

Because the truth is that most lawyers are overthinkers. Heck, we’re trained to think through the pros and cons, revisit them and then parse through every possible contingency.

Which is exhausting when applied to every day decision-making. The good news is that you can retrain your brain to NOT overthink.

In this episode you'll gain understanding around why you overthink. And then you'll learn a 5-step process for how to stop overthinking.

Most of us think of time as finite and fleeting. And so we end up cramming too many things into the time we have (often with things that aren’t even that important to us). What that means is that how you perceive time matters. Because it impacts how you choose to utilize it.

In this episode, you'll learn how to retake control over the time you have by changing how you perceive time itself.

“This is the way things are.” OR
“It’s always been done this way.”

This type of thinking is common. And not your fault.

Your brain is pre-wired to think this way. Once upon a time, humans needed to go with the crowd and be risk-averse. But it’s no longer necessary (and is actually holding you back).

Thankfully, you can challenge this thinking. Discover how in today's episode.

The post #58: The #1 Question To Ask Yourself Every Day appeared first on Life and Law Podcast.

I had a conversation with a dear friend a month or so back who's incredibly successful but admitted he's bored. Which got me thinking about all the lawyers I've known who have complained of something similar...

Doing the same or similar work for years.

No longer excited about their work (or the law).

Just going through the motions until retirement.

What I've come to realize is that, no matter how long you've practiced, there's always more to learn. And no reason to feel bored.

The key is to reengage the curiosity you once had. You know, that thing you had an abundance of as a child (and likely annoyed your parents and teachers with).

Listen to today's episode to learn:

- The link between curiosity and happiness as a lawyer.

- How curiosity will make you a better lawyer.

- How to reengage your curiosity from within.

Wouldn’t it be nice if you could choose to be happy? I’ve got some good news… you CAN.

You might be thinking that’s not possible. After all, life happens. And it’s not all sunshine and butterflies (is it?).

Part of the problem is how we humans tend to define what happiness even is. Join me today to learn how to redefine what happiness really is and how to choose it for yourself.

Let me be clear about something. This isn’t about thinking positive thoughts or seeing a silver-lining that doesn’t exist (that’s actually toxic, and we’ll have none of that). What I’m talking about is learning how to be content in who you are and how you’re living life. No matter what.

This is an important episode because it will help you take agency over your life and career.

Today we’re talking about how to take control of your career and create success at work (even as a young associate) with guest Allison Stewart, host of Women In Law On The Record podcast. This is the perfect follow-up to last week’s episode because Allison's story shows you how to create your own space, be innovative and get noticed at work - no matter what career stage you're in or how long you've practiced law. The idea behind creating your own space is this...

If there’s an area where you want to make a difference, then take the lead to do something about it in your own way. Which is exactly what Allison did when she started her popular podcast as a young associate in BigLaw. Here's some of what we get into today:

- Why NOT wait to get started (because you don't become influential by waiting).

- Why private practice attorneys must focus on MORE than just your billable hours to move up.

- Allison’s healthy way of approaching billable hours versus non-billable hours (that has helped her be less stressed and more balanced).

- How to have real work life balance as a young lawyer (even in BigLaw).

I know you'll be inspired by Allison regardless of what stage you're in or where you currently practice law.

Let me be clear about something... life isn't fair, there are difficult people (who hold you back) and inequity exists. But none of that is truly within your control. Which is why it's important to take control of what you CAN control (that also holds you back).

Listen in to learn how to identify what internal narratives are holding you back. So that you can break through your inner glass ceiling and become the best version of yourself that you can possibly be.
