In today’s episode, I’m recapping my experience speaking at the Queensland Association of Collaborative Practice’s annual conference. It was an absolute honour to be the only non-lawyer on stage. But also, it gave me a chance to bring a fresh perspective to a room of highly skilled professionals.

I kick things off by explaining whatcollaborative practiceactually is—because honestly, I only found out about it a couple of years ago, and I wish more people knew it existed. It’s a more human, client-led way to navigate things like separation or divorce, without the chaos of courtroom drama.

From there, I share the key theme of my keynote:trade-offs—in law, in business, and in life. I riff on four dualities I’ve noticed in my own career journey:

  • Fromherotoguide
  • Fromappointmentstoaccess
  • Fromdoing with hands and feettothinking and speaking
  • And ultimately, the dream:getting paid to be yourself

Yep, I finally shared myobnoxious business model pyramidpublicly.

This episode is for you if:

  • You're curious about what collaborative practice looks like
  • You're navigating how to evolve your own business model
  • You want to reflect on where you spend your energy—and how to level up
  • You dream of working in your zone of genius and getting paidfor being you

Whether you’re in the legal profession or not, I think this conversation will spark a bit of self-reflection—and maybe even a reframe.
