Feeling a bit unmotivated lately?
If you're like my clients, I bet you're also giving yourself a hard time about it. What if I told you that not feeling motivated was a very important sign you needed to pay attention to? Give a listen to this podcast to learn more. 
Two podcast episodes ago, I talked about how you need to stop trying to become someone else in court and instead just be yourself.
But then someone asked, "But what if I'm not likeable?" Ah...likeability. The holy grail of "personality traits" for trial attorneys. It may not be as important as you think. Give a listen to this podcast to learn more. -Sari 
Why do so many of you become unrecognizable the minute you step into court?
Who you are OUTSIDE of court shouldn't be different than who you are the minute you step within the courtroom walls. The key is integration. Give a listen to this podcast to learn more. -Sari 
We all have values. Family, personal growth, professional development, work...amongst others.
Values are what help guide our life and our decision making. But what do you do when you have to make a decision that pits two values against each other? Listen to this podcast to learn how to make a decision when your values are competing with each other. -Sari 
"I'm not charismatic."
"I need to be more persuasive." "I wish I was more like [insert-famous-trial-attorney]." Newsflash: Trial is not -about- you. But it's also -totally- about you. Listen to this podcast to learn more. 
Y'all know I love thought work. We don't have to believe every bullshit thought our brain throws up for consideration.
And yet, there is a downside to thought work, one that can really mess with your quest to improve your life. Give this podcast a listen to learn what it is. -Sari
What are resonant conversations? And why are they important?
Your goal in voir dire is to create resonance with jurors. When you do this, your verdicts will go up. Give this podcast a listen to learn more. 
"When I communicate authoritatively, I'm called a bitch."
"I'm naturally confident, but I'm often viewed as aggressive." "Being a female trial lawyer is so much harder than I thought." Lady lawyers, you are up against it. But the answer isn't to hide who you are. Give this episode a listen to learn what to do instead.
Authenticity.
You're told you need to be authentic in court, but what does that really mean? Authenticity is bigger than you think. Being "uncomfortable" for example, is not the same as being inauthentic. But authenticity can also get you in trouble. Give the podcast a listen to find out what authenticity is and why it's such a big deal. 
My FB Live from Wednesday 05/29/19 has been uploaded as a bonus podcast episode. This week, I met up with Jesse Wilson from tellthewinningstory.com to discuss ideas on the topic of Performance Mastery - what it is and what it isn't.
