Most firm owners think they have a strategy problem. What they actually have is a standards problem.

In this episode of The Game Changing Attorney Podcast, Michael and Jessica Mogill take on three questions every growth-minded firm owner eventually faces: why a six-figure software implementation still isn't sticking, whether to make a major hire before everything feels "ready," and what to do when an org chart that hasn't changed in years stops fitting the business. Michael makes the case that waiting, outsourcing, and settling for "fine" are all the same problem wearing different clothes, and that the fix starts with owning the standard yourself.

Here's what you'll learn:

Stop waiting for the right time, the right hire, or the right consultant to save you: this episode is your push to own the standard yourself.

What if loving something (your country, your work, your own self-image) actually requires being brutally honest about its flaws?

In this encore episode of The Game Changing Attorney Podcast, Michael Mogill sits down with Dr. Dolly Chugh, social psychologist, behavioral scientist, and bestselling author, to unpack why our brains are wired for consistency instead of objectivity, and how guilt and shame can become engines for real growth. They get into the "psychology of good people," the trap of the flawless narrative, and what it takes to keep getting better instead of defending a story that no longer fits. It's a conversation about replacing brittle perfection with something far more durable.

Here's what you'll learn:

The version of yourself you're defending might be the thing holding you back. This one will make you rethink it.

What if everything you believe about your brain inevitably slowing down with age is simply wrong, and you have far more control than you ever imagined?

In this episode of The Game Changing Attorney Podcast, Michael Mogill sits down with neuroscientist, performance coach, and self-described "elite-level professional nerd" Dr. Tommy Wood to dismantle the myth that cognitive decline is destiny. Drawing on his work treating brain injury, advising Formula 1 drivers, and his new book, “The Stimulated Mind,” Dr. Wood lays out a simple framework for keeping your brain sharp at any age, and explains why the small, daily inputs matter far more than you think. For high performers running hard and recovering little, this is the wake-up call your brain has been waiting for.

Here's what you'll learn:

Your brain is not on a fixed downward path, and this episode is your blueprint for proving it.

The work that drains you isn't a discipline problem. It's a sign you've been ignoring.

In this episode of The Game Changing Attorney Podcast, Michael and Jessica Mogill dig into what happens when a firm owner's instincts no longer match what the business actually needs.

Stop white-knuckling the parts of your business that drain you and start building toward the version that doesn't.

In this episode of The Game Changing Attorney Podcast, Michael Mogill sits down with Robert Glazer to break down why core values are the most underused tool in leadership.
