What if true transformation isn't about adding more to your life, but deliberately removing what's holding you back? Keith Lee, a partner at Big Law Investor, challenges the conventional wisdom that growth means doing more. His contrarian insight: sustainable change requires sacrifice.

Lee's journey from living in a storage closet under a staircase for a year—training in martial arts with nothing but two suitcases—to becoming a partner in a thriving financial education company reveals a pattern most professionals miss. While others chase opportunities, Lee practices "strategic subtraction," deliberately choosing what not to do.

As partner at Big Law Investor, Lee tackles the crisis plaguing lawyers who graduate with $167,000 in debt yet receive zero financial education. The platform bridges the gap between law school and financial independence, offering student loan refinancing and JD-specific mortgage programs that save lawyers thousands.

Lee applies his "beginner's mind" philosophy to AI and legal technology, revealing how his company literally wouldn't exist without AI tools. He addresses seismic industry shifts: the new $200,000 federal student loan cap, legal deserts in states like Oklahoma, and Hawaii's elimination of bar admission requirements for out-of-state lawyers.

This isn't just another productivity conversation—it's a masterclass in intentional living from someone who's consistently stayed ahead of industry curves while maintaining the discipline to remove what doesn't serve his larger vision.
