  • 113. Building a Practice That Lasts: Kanban, Credibility, and the Long Game with Jordan Couch
    Mar 31 2026

    Are you building a practice designed to last, or one that only works as long as you can keep up with the pace? It is easy to focus on immediate demands, chasing efficiency or output, without stepping back to consider whether your systems, your reputation, and your way of working are actually sustainable over time.

    In this episode, I talk with Jordan Couch, an attorney and innovator at Palace Law, about what it really looks like to take a long view of your legal practice. We explore how tools like Kanban can help make work visible and manageable, but also how credibility, consistency, and service shape the foundation of a practice that endures. This conversation goes beyond workflow and into how you think about your role, your clients, and the kind of practice you are building.

  • 112. The Problem with Billable Hour Targets & What to Measure Instead with Radhika Dutt
    Mar 24 2026

    What happens when the metrics we rely on to measure success start pulling us away from the outcomes we actually care about? From internal performance to billable hour targets, many of the systems we use were designed to create clarity, but over time, they can distort behavior in ways that are hard to see until the impact is already felt.

    In this episode, I sit down with author Radhika Dutt to explore how this dynamic shows up not just in legal work, but across industries, and why optimizing for the wrong metrics can quietly undermine client relationships, team wellbeing, and long-term growth.

    Mar 17 2026

    After ten episodes on Agile lawyering tools and practices, it is worth stepping back to ask a bigger question. What does it really mean to be an Agile Attorney?

    In this episode, I bring the series together by revisiting those core patterns and the first principles behind Agile thinking. My goal is to leave you with a clearer sense of how these ideas can help you build a practice that is more resilient, more intentional, and better able to serve the people who rely on it.
