Growth and the Good Life (Live Q&A with Ben and Brian)

What if the biggest threat to your law firm is not your competition, but the noise you let into your life and calendar?

In this live Q&A from the GLM Summit 2025, Brian and Ben reflect on what it really means to pursue growth and “the good life” as a lawyer. This is not a tactics-only conversation. It is about how you think, what you allow into your head, and how you design a practice that serves your life instead of swallowing it.

You will hear Brian and Ben talk about conferences, community, and why most of us go home with notebooks full of ideas and then change almost nothing. From there, he gets very practical about the next 90 days, how to close out the year strong, and how to plan for the future without lighting yourself on fire.

Inside this episode, we get into:

• Turning conference inspiration into actual calendar commitments
• Separating “noise” from inputs that really move your firm forward
• Using 90 day plans to make 2026 less chaotic and more intentional
• Blocking real thinking time so your firm is not run out of your inbox
• Improving the velocity of money in an injury practice so you are not waiting forever to get paid

If you are a lawyer or law firm owner who wants both a profitable practice and a life you actually like waking up to, this one will hit home.

Hit play and use this as your own private debrief from the GLM Summit.
