“If your law school experience was anything like mine, chances are they taught you nothing in law school about the business of how to manage a law firm. In fact, they may have even given you the same bad advice that I have heard repeated from many thousands of lawyers who I have had the opportunity to work with over the years. Just be a great lawyer and the rest will take care of itself. Yeah, right.” – RJon Robins

In this episode, Karli sits down with Kate Lincoln-Goldfinch, shares her law firm owner journey from struggling to hit $250,000 in her first year to being on track to break the $10 million barrier. She opens up about her resistance to putting profits first, the dark times of cash crunches, and how proper financial structures transformed not just her business but her entire life and relationships. Kate’s advice for early-career lawyers: choose curiosity over resistance, and say yes to opportunities for growth and learning.
