What drives profitable growth for lawyers today? Align your business with strategic intuition and business rhythms for long-term impact [Ep. 14]
Description
Have you ever felt like your business is growing—but you’re shrinking inside?
In this episode, I share a personal story of how embracing a slow business model grounded in strategic intuition completely transformed the way I grow my legal business.
If you’ve been trying to scale your law firm or any purpose-driven business by pushing harder, planning more, and packing your calendar tighter—this conversation is for you.
Instead of hustling in a straight line, I discovered the power of honoring the natural cycles of business—a feminine leadership approach that embraces business rhythms, rest, and intuition as core strategic assets.
What You’ll Learn:
✔︎ Why the traditional linear business plan model often leads to exhaustion
✔︎ How I rebuilt my strategy around cycles of business instead of constant hustle

✔︎ Practical ways to align your actions with your current business rhythm
✔︎ Why slowing down can accelerate your impact and income
