You’d think by now after being an attorney and business owner for almost two decades, I would know what I’m about to share with you today. But the one thing I know about life as an entrepreneur and business owner is that there are ALWAYS lessons to be learned. As Abraham Hicks says: “You will never get it done, and you can never get it wrong.”

Why? Because, as human beings, we are always receiving new information and transforming how we think and behave based on that information—yes, even those of us we wouldn’t think ever change are always changing.

Listen in as I share the ah-ha moment I had this week. It surprised me and it may surprise you. If you are a high-achieving woman like me, it may be this is exactly what you need to hear.

Today’s topic was inspired by a recent conversation I had with a fellow high-achieving woman who is super-productive in her business and loves to check off boxes on her to-do list. In fact, she loves it so much that sometimes, she will write something down on her to-do list after she’s done it, just so she has the pleasure of checking it off!

Boy, I can relate. Can you?

There are documented psychological reasons we, as humans, love to make lists. BUT, did you know your list may be doing you more harm than good as you attempt to scale your law firm business? Listen in to discover more about how you can keep the lists you love, but make them much more powerful tools.

Welcome to today's episode of the Wealthy Woman Lawyer® Podcast! Today, I’m sharing the top three mistakes I made when scaling my first law firm business so you don’t have to learn the hard way like I did.

I made many, many mistakes in growing that law firm business—as one does when they are trying to figure things out on their own, but I thought I’d share these three particular mistakes with you because I’ve had so many conversations with other women law firm owners who have made similar mistakes, too.

Maybe by hearing my story, you’ll do things differently and skip the struggle.

Enjoy!

Welcome to today’s episode of the Wealthy Woman Lawyer® Podcast! I'm your host Davina Frederick, and today's episode starts a series called 'The Dumbest Thing I’ve Heard Lately.'

It’s a series because, unfortunately, I’m reading and hearing dumb things all the time out on these social media streets, and I just can’t take it anymore. I have to say something about it.

And, no, I’m not talking about politics or Gen Z or TikTok; I’m talking about dumb business advice and words that are supposed to be inspirational but that may actually be harmful.

Listen in as I share:

• The dumbest thing I’ve heard lately—and who said it (I spill the tea).
• The myth social media influencers perpetuate that may be harmful to your mental health and wellbeing.
• What top billionaires have in common (besides their massive wealth).
• Why I think work can be a privilege, not a punishment.
• A must-read book I recommend about living a purpose-driven life.
• And much more!

I hope you enjoy this week’s episode. I’d love to hear your thoughts! Click on this link to message me about this topic or other dumb things you’ve heard this week that you might want to share with me.
