“It depends on what you mean by profit. This answer will set you free, and as a result, this way of thinking will make your law firm far more profitable.” – RJon Robins, author of Profit First for Lawyers

What does profit really mean to you? For estate planning attorney Ali Goff, the answer goes far beyond “revenue minus expenses.” In this episode, Ali shares how understanding total owner benefits (time freedom, lifestyle choices, and peace of mind) completely transformed how she runs her firm and designs her life. When faced with a difficult quarter, her commitment to taking distributions even when it felt uncomfortable, forced better decisions and ultimately led to breakthrough growth. Ali’s journey from dismissing Profit First to embracing it reveals why redefining profit is the key to building both a successful business and a meaningful life.
