I write this on the day after Christmas, so naturally I’m thinking about gratitude. I’ve never said this out loud before, but I have a love/hate relationship with gratitude. I am so grateful for the things in my life that being grateful actually scares me. Will my luck run out? There was a time that I […]
In the courtroom, a good advocate knows the power of Could Be. Every witness could be the key to a win. Every piece of evidence could be the thing that helps the jury understand. Could Be’s win cases. After 20 years as a trial attorney, I knew that. But if you want to stand up […]

Do you like roller coasters? I do. It wasn’t always that way. My very first roller coaster ride was the worst–too fast, too jerky, too much nausea. I swore I’d never ride one again, but my mother was never one to let me give up on anything. She made me try again. We have a picture of […]
Can you draw? I’m dismal at drawing. Even when I was a kid, I couldn’t draw. One of my best friends in grammar school was Lisa Graves, and she could DRAW. (Still can–check out her work here. ) Lisa would try to help me to draw, and I was able to draw a frog (5 upside-down […]
Who stands up for you? Who tells the world what you have to offer, when you need a rest, why you’ve had enough and you just won’t take any more? You may look to your partner, your parents, your sister, or your best friend. While it’s great to have people out there who are willing […]

Do you worry about what people think? I used to spend so much time in other people’s heads. I was trying to figure out what they were thinking, or what they were going to think, or what they thought. What a waste of time. If you spend time worrying about what people think, you should […]

Last week I told you the best preparation is practice. If you want to get good at doing something, practice doing it. You want to stand up for yourself, your business, your family and your ideas, so start standing up. Lots of you, especially you women, reached out to me about this one. You said […]

Last week we started exploring HOW to be your own best advocate. I told you that in order to be a strong advocate for yourself, your business, and your ideas, you need to be prepared. Today I need to add an asterisk. Because when I say prepare, I don’t mean get organized, set up your […]

After 20 years of advocating for my clients, I’ve become very clear on who and what I stand for. You have to be clear on the same before you can become a strong advocate. Hopefully, you’ve decided you are ready to advocate for yourself, your family, and your business, so the WHO is clear. And […]

Before I can advocate for a client at trial, I need to know what a win looks like for my client. I need to know what I’m out to prove. My version of a win may be something very different than his, and it’s important to be clear about what he wants. The best advocacy […]
