Digital nomad life isn't about sipping margaritas on a beach in Bali whilst answering your emails. It's about mindset, discipline and focus. You have to almost forget the mindset you adopted when you were a lawyer working in an office. This includes the billable hour.

In this episode, I chat with Brian Dixon about the impact that billable hour has on self-worth. Do you calculate the cost of personal activities based on how long it will take you to bill?

When you become fixated on trading your time for money, you can begin to devalue yourself and your work. Is the billable hour outdated?

As a digital nomad, working based on the billable hour can almost conflict with your lifestyle. You have to start thinking in a value-based way.

In this behind-the-scenes episode, I talk about the idea behind creating the "Unpacking Narcissism & Gaslighting in Law: The Root To Toxic Cultures? podcast episode with Alana Tart.

There are so many dynamics which occur in law firms, which unfortunately can encourage one of the greatest hallmarks that we put as being narcissistic behaviour.

Today I'm talking with Alana Tart. She is a fractional general counsel for SMEs and an executive coach and mindfulness teacher. Alana has told me that she understands gaslighting and narcissistic patterns intimately. She grew up around these behaviours. And in most of her workplaces, they have been accepted, if not rewarded.

In this conversation, we get into the nitty gritty of narcissistic behaviour in the legal industry, the psychology behind it, and how lawyers can recognize it and become almost immune to it, whilst keeping their career intact.

Alana understands gaslighting and narcissistic patterns intimately. In addition to lived expertise, she has psychology degrees, is a certified UK counsellor and a trained mindfulness and compassion teacher -- proven ways of both helping people become more immune to gaslighting and narcissism from others and also understanding how they can reduce these tendencies in themselves.

Alana Tart is dedicated to helping professionals reclaim their sense of self and power, especially when life feels like it's slipping or imploding.

Whether you're facing job insecurities or personal challenges, she helps you rebuild a solid foundation. If you're dealing with toxicity, she guides you through navigating, protecting yourself, and inoculating against future issues. For those seeking meaning, she reconnects you to your essence and helps you rediscover your path.

Have you ever had a real passion for something, maybe art, acting, or music, but you ended up as a lawyer because it was the safe option? 

We are all on our own paths but sometimes our passion and purpose don't align with our work.

Today I'm chatting with Tony Albrecht, LinkedIn ghostwriter for lawyers.

When he stopped practicing law in October 2021, he found himself digitally invisible. That was when he began focusing on LinkedIn.

Fifty-three weeks later, he committed fully to building a marketing agency dedicated to helping lawyers and leaders cultivate magnetic presences on this platform.

Despite the vast user base—over a billion worldwide and approximately 200 million in the United States—LinkedIn remains in the early stages of the content creation game.

He shares his story with us from law to LinkedIn ghostwriter for lawyers and gives some golden tips for lawyers wanting to crack the platform.

Anthony Albrecht  (Tony) is the founder of CONTENDER.

CONTENDER helps attorneys produce LinkedIn content that resonates with the people you want to reach, so they can Know, Like, and Trust you.
