When you are marketing yourself, you are not bragging. You are owning your value.

For a long time, I thought good work would speak for itself. If I tried great cases and served my clients well, the right opportunities would find me. What I have learned is that being good and being visible are two different things.

Marketing is how I connect them. And the more I share my story, my experience, and what I have learned along the way, the more I see it for what it is. Not ego. Ownership.

Save this for the days when hitting post feels hard, and share it with someone who needs to hear it.

When the lawyers concede liability, but the defendant is still deciding how they feel about it.

Some of the biggest moves I have made in my life or career started with one question... what if I just tried?

Trying a case I was not sure I could win. Stepping into leadership. Saying yes to speaking on stages I never imagined myself on. None of those moments came with a guarantee. What they came with was a little courage and a willingness to see what would happen.

As women in law, so many of us wait until we feel completely ready. Until every box is checked and every risk is accounted for. But readiness does not always come first. Sometimes it shows up after you take the step.

The world is full of possibilities, and I am still discovering how far I can go.

Is there a goal or dream that is on your bucket list for the rest of 2026?

Reading for pleasure is the hobby I lost in law school have been reclaiming over the past couple of years. Thought it would be fun weekend content to start sharing these reviews monthly.

Now as you look at these don’t come in here judgmental because my tastes may surprise you. Sometimes there’s a dragon, sometimes there’s a leadership book, most of the time I try to balance each week with both.

September was a heavy travel month, which usually leaves me more time to read. This was especially true because apparently Delta wifi is going through some things.

Confession: I fancy myself a collector of books, which means I’ve got a lot on my shelves that I have not read. So for the rest of the year I’m challenging myself to read the books I have before buying anything new. We all
know how that’s going to go but I will commit to the effort and give myself grace if I fail.

October’s four are on the last slide, including two from this summer’s trip that seemed witchy enough for the spooky seasonZ

Let me know what you’re reading or what you think I should add to my 2027 TBR in the comments.

When the driver of an 80,000-pound truck takes their eyes off the road for just three seconds, they are driving blind down the entire length of a football field. And in those three seconds, everything can change.

Distracted driving is dangerous for everyone. But when you are behind the wheel of a commercial truck, the stakes are exponentially higher. Stopping an 80,000-pound vehicle is not the same as stopping a Honda Accord or a passenger SUV. It takes longer. It requires more distance. And that means every single second matters.

If you have been injured in a truck wreck and you suspect the truck driver was distracted, call an experienced trucking lawyer. Because this is not just about holding someone accountable; it is about making sure it does not happen to someone else.

I’m speaking at the 5th Annual Shades of Mass Conference where I will be joining a powerful lineup of attorneys and legal leaders for conversations that matter to the future of mass tort and complex litigation. If you’ll be in Washington, D.C. October 8-10, I hope you’ll join us!

The real flex is how many people we leave better than we found them.

That is the legacy worth building, in my opinion. Save this for the next time you need the reminder.
