Counsel Brew

Meet Sakina Rasheed Foster - a purpose driven leader and phenomenal woman. Sakina is the Managing Partner of the Dallas office of Haynes & Boone, LLP. Her favorite brew? It’s always coffee. 

Sakina is the bridge between cultures & generations and to improving the lives of women. She is the connector, communicator, teacher, translator, and mediator to those she helps and supports. Sakina reminds us that while sometimes the thing that didn’t happen the way we wanted, actually creates a different and amazing path we wouldn’t have otherwise gone down. And her best advice - don’t forget to raise your hand and let people know what you want. We hope you enjoy this episode of Counsel Brew. For some extra chuckles, listen in and hear about Sakina’s unexpected adventure that landed her in a fire station watching 5 hours of reality TV with a bunch of firefighters.

Welcome to Counsel Brew! 

Meet Byron Prescott. They call him Boss. Who is “they” you ask…this episode unlocks the answer. 

Byron’s favorite brew? While Byron is probably one of the healthiest people we know, he admittedly drinks 6 cups of coffee daily although he likes to think it’s really just 3 cups since they are half-caf. 

In this episode, you will learn that sometimes you have to “adult” quickly, and get in there and sound like a lawyer. Other times, you have to take calls at 3 a.m. from your client who tells you they are in Vegas with a suitcase full of cash and need your help. And whatever you do, don’t put your house on stilts. 

What’s Byron’s secret sauce? Pure grit. Grinding away until you make the deal happen. And filling his cup by counseling people with PTSD.

Welcome to Counsel Brew! 

Meet Dr. Sarah Flournoy - a doctor twice over, Sarah has immersed herself in the world of education and law. Her reminders to all of us who are working to achieve our professional goals is to level up, collect your own data about what’s right for you, and don’t forget to turn off your car (as in, if you drive an electric vehicle and you don’t need to turn it off, that doesn’t work on motor vehicles!) And she unabashedly admits that she never read Mein Kampf in the original German before attending school at Wellesley College. Sarah’s favorite brew, you ask? Tea! So grab a cup of tea or go walk your dog and listen in.
