Acclaimed author and speaker Mike Michalowicz joins Steve as we confront the challenge of entrepreneurial poverty that plagues many in the legal profession.
On this episode of Great Practice Great Life, we share practical strategies from Mike's book, “All In: How Great Leaders Build Unstoppable Teams,” revealing how attorneys can achieve financial success without sacrificing exceptional client service. Following his appearance at The Summit, through humor and engaging stories, including Mike's own experience as an expert witness, we discuss overcoming professional obstacles by embracing a mindset shift.
Embarking on the journey from practicing lawyer to law firm owner is a pivotal decision that demands strategic delegation. We delve into fractionalization—where tasks are dissected and assigned—even those you love, to prevent the superhero complex of feeling irreplaceable. For trial lawyers and specialized roles, breaking down responsibilities into bite-sized pieces eases the transition and builds a thriving business.
Reimagining your professional identity can be the key to unlocking your potential. By shifting from being seen as just a lawyer to a shareholder of a legal business, we explore how this transformation fosters strategic thinking and empowerment within teams. The discussion extends to the critical role of community in the legal industry, highlighting the isolating nature of the profession and the need for collaboration among peers. Atticus is celebrated for nurturing an environment where lawyers gain strategic insights and mutual support, demonstrating that collective wisdom truly outshines individual efforts.
Don’t miss this discussion with Mike Michalowicz as he shares insights on mastering entrepreneurship for lawyers and creating an all-in team.

When Steve’s mother was diagnosed with Alzheimer's, it changed the course of his life, pushing him to explore the connections between our diet, lifestyle, and brain health.
In this deeply personal episode of Great Practice, Great Life, journalist and documentary filmmaker Max Lugavere joins Steve. Max’s own journey led him from television journalism to becoming a powerful voice in health advocacy. They discuss the rise of modern health issues like obesity, glucose dysregulation, and neurodegenerative conditions, emphasizing the critical importance of nutritional choices and early prevention strategies.
Max offers an inside look at his documentary “Little Empty Boxes,” which underscores the urgency of Alzheimer's prevention through mindful decisions. We touch on groundbreaking research that even labels Alzheimer's as Type 3 diabetes, stressing the need for early detection and lifestyle modifications to mitigate risks. Our conversation zeros in on the often-overlooked aspect of metabolic health, revealing its direct impact on cognitive function and overall well-being. The stories and insights shared are eye-opening and serve as a call to action for anyone concerned about mental health and longevity.

The conversation spans the benefits of resistance training, the importance of nutrient-dense foods, and the biases within dietary guidelines. We break down complex topics into practical advice, making it accessible to everyone, including busy professionals looking to improve their health.
Whether you're interested in preventing Alzheimer's, achieving a balanced diet, or enhancing your mental clarity, this episode offers insights for a healthier, more fulfilling life.
