What do you do when there’s no one to turn to and every decision rests on you?

In this episode of The Game Changing Attorney Podcast, Michael and Jessica Mogill answer raw, real questions from law firm owners navigating isolation, leadership doubts, and the pressure to stay strong when everything feels uncertain. From managing tough team decisions to questioning your purpose as a business owner, Michael shares why staying in the arena, even when you’re tired, scared, or second-guessing yourself, is the mark of true leadership.

Here’s what you’ll learn:

• How to make hard calls when you have no one to confide in


• Why every leader questions their purpose and how to push through the low points


• What it takes to build a trusted community that keeps you grounded and growing

When the weight of leadership feels heaviest, that’s when you prove you’re built for it.
