374: Stop Putting Out Fires and Be Calmer and Happier with Special Guest Kara Brinster

Do you feel like your hair is on fire daily in your law practice? 🔥

You’re not alone.

Kara Brinster felt the same way.

Between her family law practice, her role as a state’s attorney, parenting, and managing a household -- Kara’s plate was full.

Fast forward 10 months, Kara’s practice feels calmer, and she’s so much happier.

Not because she has less work—but because she learned the skills to support the life she actually wants.

In this episode of Be a Better Lawyer, my special guest Kara Brinster shares: 

📆Why she no longer holds every task and deadline in her head

😘How she stopped working until 10 p.m. and started making time to do things she loved doing

💵 The strategies she used to increase the profitability of her law practice

⚡️ What calmed her frustrations at the office (and at home!)

This episode is jam-packed with practical takeaways that helped Kara—and will help you—be happier, even when your plate feels full.

✅ Want more time for what matters most?

✅ Wish you could make your practice more profitable?

✅ Ready to stop running on adrenaline?

Kara’s story is proof that it’s possible—with support, systems, and the willingness to believe something better is yours for the asking.

🎧 Listen to this week’s episode of Be a Better Lawyer and let's get to work imagining what’s possible for you.
