In this episode of The Modern Firm Podcast, host TJ Lewis welcomes back Amy Vetter—CPA, yogi, keynote speaker, and CEO of the B3 Method Institute—for a powerful conversation about one of the most underrated tools in a leader’s toolkit: the pause. As firms navigate the intensity of busy season and beyond, Amy challenges the grind mindset and makes the case for carving out space—mentally, emotionally, and physically—as a pathway to real productivity and fulfillment.

Together, TJ and Amy unpack why high-achieving professionals struggle to slow down, how intentional breaks can actually sharpen performance, and what it means to replace work-life balance with true work-life harmony. Whether you lead a team or are simply looking for a healthier rhythm in your workday, this episode offers small, practical shifts that lead to big change—not just for your firm, but for your whole self.
