There’s a culture in law that no one really talks about. 

The culture of not asking. 

Not talking about money. 

Salary secrecy 

But this silence comes at a cost. 

It can create confusion. 

It can reinforce inequality. 

It can break trust. 

It can keep people stuck. 

Understanding your worth isn’t just about numbers.

It’s about building a life that works for you.

Staying in the dark isn't just disempowering.

It's expensive.

In this episode, I sit down with Jono Randell-Nash, ex lawyer turned independent financial advisor for lawyers. 

Carla Hoppe, former corporate solicitor, ex- director of international tax and transaction services at EY and founder of WealthBrite, an award-winning financial education partner helping law firms build financially savvy lawyers.

We explore the culture of salary secrecy in law firms, the widespread financial literacy gap across the legal industry, and the key questions lawyers should be asking to take control of their financial wellbeing.

So many associates think they’re on the path to partnership…

But they’re not even close.

And no one’s telling them.

Some are chasing an invisible finish line.

Because the steps to partnership? Often they're not written down.

Or the goalposts keep shifting.

 So is it still worth it? 

That depends on one thing: 

Clarity. Clarity from firms. 

Clarity from leaders. 

Clarity for associates to make empowered decisions about their careers.

Because without it, we’re fuelling a cycle of disillusionment, quiet quitting, and talent loss.  

In this exclusive conversation with Brandon Renken, trial partner at Mayer Brown and Helen Pamely, ex law firm partner, we discuss:

– Why so many associates feel misled about the path to partnership

– What really happens behind closed doors when partnership decisions are made

– The silence around feedback and how it creates confusion and resentment

– The surprising metrics that matter (and the ones that shouldn’t)

– How transparency or the lack of it shapes the future of law firms

It’s leverage.

It’s strategy.

And it’s working.

Are you chasing success, or recreating the stress that raised you?

Because they can look exactly the same. 

Let me explain

You grew up in chaos.

Maybe not dramatic. But unpredictable.

Emotionally charged.

Always on edge.

So you adapted.

Now?

You’re praised for the same patterns that kept you safe as a kid.

Clients love your hustle.

Colleagues call you a machine.

You get rewarded for the very thing that’s burning you out.

But here’s the truth:

That urgency?

That over-functioning?

That need to be perfect?

It might not be ambition.

It might be your nervous system stuck in survival.

Today I'm sitting down with Casey Berglund,TEDx speaker, host of The Purpose Map™ Podcast, founder of Worthy and Well, and creator of the Let Your Body Lead™ Professional Certification. She's also the co-author of The Mind-Body Way: The Embodied Leader's Path to Resilience, Connection, and Purpose. She teaches you how to listen to your body, make better decisions, and build a career that actually feels good. 

In this conversation, we discuss how the way you work today might be rooted in how you survived as a child. How to find a way of working and a life that aligns with what you actually want.

We’re obsessed with time management.

Calendars. Schedulers. 

But what if we’re managing the wrong thing?

Because time isn’t the problem.

You can have an empty day and still feel exhausted.

You can finish early and still feel drained.

The real issue?

Energy.

No one teaches us to manage it.

But it’s the thing that fuels everything else.

So maybe it’s not about how many hours you work.

It’s about how you feel during them.

Today I'm sitting down with Grace Williams to get expert advice on how to manage stress & burnout through energy management in law, she's an ex white and case solicitor turned health and nutrition coach.

The future of law isn’t just about AI.

Or automation.

Or the next hot legal tech startup.

It’s about people.

Visibility.

Culture.

And the conversations we’re brave enough to have.

In this episode, I'm showcasing the key conversations that are defining the future of law.

Holly Cope & Helen Pamely

The best-kept secret in the future of your law career?

It’s how marketable you are.

Jonathan Watmough

Let me introduce you to Jonathan Watmough, award-winning former managing partner and author of How to Thrive in a Commercial Law Firm.

We talk about: How firms can balance culture + profitability — if they’re willing to evolve. Because the culture they build will become their competitive edge.

Valentin Feklistov and Alex Bitskov 

The legal industry needs better conversations.

The kind that actually move the profession forward.

That’s why events like FutureLaw matters.

Let me introduce you to the founders of FutureLaw Valentin Feklistov and Alex Bitskov. They created the event to talk about what’s really happening at the intersection of law, tech, and innovation.

AI isn’t coming for lawyers.

It’s coming for tasks.

And here’s the real shift:

If your value is tied only to what a system can do faster,

It’s time to rethink what you’re really selling.

Lawyers who will thrive aren’t the ones who fear AI.

They’re the ones who double down on the one thing machines can’t do:

Trust.

Judgment.

Human connection.

Creative strategy in grey areas.

AI might draft the contract.

You’ll still be the one they call before they sign it.

A landmark moment for the legal industry:

The Solicitors Regulatory Authority has officially authorised Garfield.Law, the first ever AI-driven law firm regulated to provide legal services in England and Wales.

This isn’t just another firm using AI to streamline admin. Garfield.Law is entirely AI-driven, offering small businesses an AI litigation assistant to recover unpaid debts, guiding them through the small claims process all the way to trial.

I went straight to the source.

I interviewed the founder of Garfield.Law, Philip Young.

And I asked the questions everyone wants the answers to:

You’re going to want to hear this.

You want to do law differently.

But let’s be real, no one’s handing you the blueprint.

You’re told to follow the script:

Bill the hours. Climb the ladder. 

But the moment you want freedom, creativity, or flexibility

It feels like you’re breaking some silent rule.

Here’s what most won’t tell you:

Doing law differently doesn’t make you less of a lawyer.

Today I'm sitting down with Ari Mike Varjabedian, a digital nomad lawyer and now, founder of E-Legal Counsel which provides tech-driven legal services to entrepreneurs & businesses. He created a life of travel and law and in this conversation he talks about how he did it.
