Is it professionalism or just high-functioning burnout?
In this episode, Gary Miles shares why so many successful attorneys feel trapped by the very careers they worked so hard to build. Drawing parallels between the legal profession and the themes of the book Seven Days in Utopia, Gary identifies the "External Authority Trap" that keeps managing partners and senior attorneys running on a treadmill of seeking validation from everything and everyone around them. The need to be available 24/7 or the fear that delegating equals failure, which Gary shows why both are a lie. Whether you are a firm owner or a senior associate, this episode provides a roadmap to reclaim your identity and lead with internal authority.
