Killing it in the practice of law
Without it killing you

Unlock the inner game of advocacy

Join us as we discuss and share those qualities that make an advocate truly great – Unlock the inner game of advocacy, the winning mindset, psychology and personal habits of highly successful attorneys

We are warriors. Trial work is a form of combat and hardship always accompanies battle.

Fear. Dread. Vulnerability.

We return to it because the practice is also incredibly exhilarating.

Slowly the understanding has emerged that the difficult feelings and challenges we encounter are not the inescapable bullshit we thought, but in fact fertilizer to spur our own growth.

Vulnerability
is strength

Brutal Honesty about the challenges and the joys of our profession leads to better advocacy

OUR HOPE IS THAT WE SPARK MUCH NEEDED DIALOGue IN THE LEGAL COMMUNITY

We have learned from painful personal experience the massive amount of energy wasted by repressing emotions. Rather than continue this cycle of pain and ineffectiveness, Iron Advocate invites us to learn to get out of our own way and be ruthlessly honest about the difficult emotions and circumstances we face.

Matt Comerford

Civil/Criminal Trial Attorney

This podcast is a refreshing exploration of something the legal profession needs to acknowledge more: lawyers are human. I wish it had been around when I was a young lawyer – maybe I would’ve stuck around longer.
