Ep. 179 – The Art of Subtraction: Creating a Life You Actually Want to Live with Dr. Jordan Grumet


Listen Later

What if your most meaningful life lesson came from the bedside of the dying?

In this powerful episode of the Renegade Lawyer Podcast, Ben Glass is joined by Dr. Jordan Grumet—hospice physician, author of The Purpose Code, and one of the most thoughtful voices at the intersection of medicine, meaning, and money.

Together, they dive deep into:

  • What Dr. Grumet learned about money and happiness from patients at the end of life
  • Why “finding purpose” might be the wrong goal—and what to do instead
  • The art of subtraction—a practical framework for redesigning your life around what actually lights you up
  • Retirement redefined: why it’s not about stopping work, but about building a life you don’t need to escape from
  • His journey from burnout to a second career that includes hospice work, writing, podcasting, and financial education

Whether you’re a lawyer, doctor, or other professional wondering what’s next, this conversation is your reminder that you don’t have to wait for a crisis to start living intentionally.

Dr. Grumet and Ben will both be speaking at the White Coat Investor Conference in March 2026—this episode is a preview worth sharing.

What Makes The GLM Tribe Special?

In short, we are the only organization within the "business builder for lawyers" space that is led by two practicing lawyers.

One thing we're sure you've noticed is that despite the variety of options within our space, no one else is mixing
the actual practice of law with business building in the way that we are.

There are no other organizations who understand the highs and lows of running a small law firm and are engaged in talking to real clients. That is what sets GLM apart from every other organization, and it is why we have had loyal members that have been with us for two-decades.
