Heather Hubbard is a former partner and practice group leader at an AmLaw 200 law firm. She’s taking you behind-the-scenes and giving you unfiltered advice about how to succeed in the legal industry. Not only does she want to help you rise to the top, she wants to help you get there in an authentic and deeply satisfying way. Each week she addresses a topic related to “hustle” (such as marketing, business development, confidence, leadership, negotiations) or “flow” (such as mindfulness, balance, motivation, meditation, well-being, happiness). She’s also tackling tough topics such as retention, promotion, and unconscious bias and offering thought-provoking perspectives to help you stay sane while climbing the corporate ladder. Ready to go bigger in life and law? To enjoy more success and satisfaction? Tune in each week as Heather helps you shine bright without burning out and embrace your ambition without selling your soul. A must-listen for female attorneys (and the men that would like to see a more enjoyable and inclusive legal industry as well).
Join me for a discussion about aging, improving our appearance, and social conditioning. As a feminist, it annoys me that I even care what I look like. But I do, especially as I age.
Today’s Hustle & Flow podcast episode is less about advice and answers and more about my own thought-process, questions, and concerns. And an invitation for you to share your own thoughts around this topic.

We all know about the infamous Butker commencement speech, so I’m not going to share my views on that nonsense. But I am disappointed in the response by Jason and Travis Kelce on the New Heights Show. I’m a huge fan of the Kelce brothers and New Heights, which is why I’d like to break down the ways in which they (and many allies) get it wrong even though they think they’re being helpful. And, more importantly, how they can do better in the future.

03:09 - When to respond to the Butkers of the world
07:07 - Why silence is easy and convenient (and wrong)

30:55 - For Dads of Daughters
33:55 - It’s not just about Butker

Yes, I still have the podcast and lead retreats, but trading stocks has provided me more freedom and flexibility in prioritizing what brings me the most joy.

Anyone who knows me knows that I have two big loves, and they are Taylor Swift and NFL Football! So, of course, we’re doing an episode on this power couple. In this episode, I share why I think so many people are drawn to Taylor Swift, especially now, and her relationship with her new boyfriend, Kansas City Chiefs’ star, Travis Kelce. Why is this relationship resonating with so many people, and creating even more “Swifties” worldwide? Today, I reveal the lessons we can extract from this pop culture phenomenon, and if you’re a fan of Taylor Swift, or football, I want to hear your thoughts on this situation!

Scaling Up by Verne Harnish
I’m shaking things up a bit today and bringing you meditation. I feel strongly that today’s podcast is needed by so many of us, and I’m certain you will like it if you give it a try. Meditation is about relaxation and focus – something we can all use right now. If you’ve tried meditation before and didn’t love it because your mind started wandering, just know that it’s completely normal for your mind to wander during meditation. I’ve provided 25 minutes of non-stop guided meditation, and you can decide if you want to listen all at once or if you’d prefer to break it up and listen in shorter sessions (time stamps provided below).
A Meditation to Release Negativity [6:01]
A Meditation for Grounding [13:27]
A Meditation for Connecting [20:43]

This last week, the spread and response to the Coronavirus has escalated. As we see more cancellations, travel bans, and other isolation measures, it can leave individuals and businesses feeling stressed and anxious about their health, finances, and future plans. There seems to be such uneasiness and fear of the unknown, that I wanted to record a last-minute podcast episode in addition to our regularly scheduled Tuesday releases. If you’re struggling with knowing what to do or how to plan and make decisions during this time of uncertainty, you are not alone. In today’s episode, I’ll walk you through how to make empowering decisions and move through this crisis with confidence, regardless of what happens in the weeks and months ahead. I’m also sharing how I’m approaching decisions in my business right now and the impact this pandemic is having on our services and programs.
During this time, I want to extend additional support to anyone who needs it. Right now, our plan is to host free Facebook Lives several times each week. If you’re struggling with an issue in your business or life related to the Coronavirus and need help with strategy and feedback, I’ll be there to answer your questions and help bring a little inspiration and motivation to your day.

If you want to rise to the top and be successful, it’s crucial that you choose to be innovative instead of emulative and imitative. We are all unique and our special qualities and characteristics will help us stand out among our peers rather than allowing us to blend in. There are so many people who are choosing to imitate others’ work and ideas when, in reality, the best way to stand out and rise up is to be unique and innovative.
Things we’re covering in this episode:
Various ways in which most people emulate and imitate instead of innovate
Learn why more people choose to imitate and emulate - Find out how you can take steps to be innovative
Discover how being inspired by someone or their ideas or strategies can be different than imitating them
When your style or voice sounds similar to another professional in your field, learn the best way to handle that situation

Today’s episode is part II to episode #149, Trusting Your Intuition. Feel free to listen to the episodes in any order but do listen to them both as they work hand-in-hand! And, as you listen, make sure you throw all logic out of the window. Intuition and signs don’t necessarily follow logic, but they can still play a crucial part in your personal life and career. Try to listen with an open-mind, and, as you do, you will learn that signs are some kind of validation or information from something greater. You will also hear relatable stories where signs created confirmations in choices being made.
Things we’re covering in this episode:
What exactly is a sign and how you can use signs to confirm whether you are on the right or wrong path
Signs, like intuition, are not logical
Recognizing signs can be beneficial for anyone, even if you don’t think you believe in them
How to determine if you are using signs in the wrong way as an excuse or an explanation when you feel as though you have no control over a situation and you want to point to something as an explanation
Appropriate and helpful times to use signs
Observing signs doesn’t always mean you need to take action, because sometimes signs just lead to confirmation of a path you are already on

Have you ever stepped into a room and the hairs on your arms stood up straight? Something in your body was warning you about the situation you walked into. You weren’t able to quite explain why you felt that way, but you knew it was best to trust that gut feeling. Listen to today’s podcast to learn all about intuition and how we can differentiate that feeling that something is wrong versus the feeling of fear or anxiety. And, discover how intuition can actually be more powerful than the information that you are receiving and processing in your mind.
Things we’re covering in this episode:
Definition of intuition and how it differs from fear or anxiety
Troubleshooting the difference between fear or anxiety and intuition
How to use intuition to your advantage in both your personal and professional life
Stepping out of your “logical” self and into mindfulness where you can fully experience intuition
How to create space between the feeling you are experiencing and the reaction in order to create a neutral perspective
Discovering how intuition is usually providing you some sort of insight into a situation
Part II of this episode, episode #151, will be available on February 11th and will be focused on signs. Discover whether something is a sign that you are doing the right thing or the wrong thing or if it is just a cop-out and excuse.

Because so many of you are out and traveling over the holiday season, we do not have a regular episode of the podcast today. However, I did want to bring you a bonus episode, which is a rerun of one that aired about two years ago at this time and is related to creating a vision board. I am such a huge proponent for vision boards, and I’ve seen them work for me and my clients, time and time again. In fact, my vision board is framed in my office, and I look at it every single day! When you finish your vision board, I would love for you to take a photo of it and tag me on social media (I’m @heatherjoyhubbard on both Instagram and Facebook). Enjoy the holidays, and I look forward to coming back next week with a new episode that will also help you prepare for the best 2020 possible!
Things we’re covering in this episode:
• How a vision board can give you clarity for the future (and even act as a predictor of it)
• Why the magazines you use really won’t matter and what to look for when reviewing the materials
• What supplies you’ll need and how long the process will take
• How to decide on what to include on your board, and what to leave out
• How and where to display your vision board, and why this will be so important!

• Questions to consider as you reflect on your wins and losses from the last 10 years
• A look back at my transformation both personally and professionally (holy cow, there were A LOT of crazy highs and lows)

When you first hear the word, “storytelling”, you may automatically assume the reference is to an exaggeration of a narrative. Expert storyteller coach, Mike Ganino, debunks this common misconception as he further explains storytelling through business use. Mike’s journey didn’t begin in his current field of coaching clients on how and why to tell stories, but through various careers in areas of hospitality, improv, culture coaching, speaking and more, where he has gained invaluable experience in the power of a story. Through storytelling, Mike discusses how he helps his clients learn to provide factual information by adding life and emotion to the process so that people will more accurately remember the information.
In this episode you will learn:
• How Mike Ganino has used the classic “yes, and” taught in improv to transition and advance his career over the past 20 years
• Find out how Mike’s business has matured over the years and how Mike began working as an expert in storytelling
• Hear how Taylor Swift’s strong brand and marketing approach makes her a master at storytelling
• Learn how storytelling provides more than just the facts and information, but an interesting way for the human brain to retain information
• Worried that you don’t have a good story to tell? Mike explains how everyone has a good story and how to use it to your advantage • Learn how you can get started using Mike’s storytelling craft exercise on his website, www.mikeganino/storycraft

Join me as I kick off Life & Law LIVE in Miami with women representing 26 different states and 2 countries. I dive into the challenges we all face as we quickly approach the new year. We are hard wired to make change in our lives, yet many of us are so consumed with the end-goal of change that we forget to enjoy the journey.
You may wonder why you can’t be satisfied with what you already have. You may want change to create more balance in your life or to find more adventures or maybe it is an opportunity for more success that you are looking for. Whatever it is, you want more. Join me as I help my listeners understand exactly what you want and why. What is pushing you to want more and what is your end-goal? And, more importantly, are you enjoying the journey to the change along the way?

Dr. Valerie Rein is a psychologist and brilliant businesswoman who magically came into my life a few years ago. It’s been so much fun watching her business grow and running into each other in the most random situations.
She has a new book, Patriarchy Stress Disorder: The Invisible Inner Barrier to Women's Happiness and Fulfillment, coming out next week so I had to have her on the podcast.
From generational trauma to patriarchal systems (including medicine and psychology), Dr. Valerie shares how and why women have been trained to believe that they are broken and that something is wrong with them.
She’s on a mission to change that narrative and provide practical tools to overcoming this epidemic. To pre-order her book, and receive the first chapter for free, all you have to do is go to https://www.drvalerie.com/book.
What we cover in this episode:
• How Dr. Valerie went from an overworked psychologist to a coach and speaker based on a health scare that set her on a new path
• Generational trauma and what she defines as “Patriarchy Stress Disorder”
• Why we tend to minimize and deny trauma and the reasons why you often need more than just talk therapy
• How change can happen very fast when you use trauma healing tools and techniques
• Dr. Valerie’s personal lessons from writing her new book

It can be scary when you make big investments in yourself and your business. To help with your decision-making process, and to ensure that you stay focused on what matters most to you, it’s important to identify and calculate the return on investment (ROI) that you’re expecting. Sometimes that’s a financial return, but it doesn’t have to be. Whether you’re hiring a service provider, renting more office space, or adding new employees, getting clear on your expected ROI is a powerful tool.
Here’s what I’m sharing in this episode:
How to determine if an investment is “worth it”
Why ROI isn’t always about financial gain (and what else you need to consider)
If you’re not happy with the results, you might be surprised to know the real reason why…
Why it’s so important for service providers and their clients to get clear on expected ROI to avoid disappointment and misunderstandings

I believe that websites are important for all businesses. While it may not be your primary marketing or sales tool, a good (or bad) website creates an immediate impression of your brand as well as your credibility, expertise, personal style, and use of technology. In the constantly-evolving digital age, it’s something we all need to be looking at and updating every single year – both in terms of aesthetics, functionality, and conversions. I’m redoing my website right now for these very reasons, so I wanted to bring on my web designer and developer, Amber Vilhauer, to share her best tips with you as well.
What we cover in this episode:
• How Amber went from a marketing and sales corporate superstar to starting her own agency
• Lessons learned from a decade of entrepreneurship
• Why narrowing your focus and speaking to your ideal customers is critical to the success of your website (and business)
• Tips and strategies for creating an effective website
• Why everyone needs a website and how it can help move your business and career forward starting right now

Although corporate America suits my personality quite well, I’m not a fan of the masculine approach. It shows up in so many obvious and subtle ways that for many it becomes too much and they exit out. From dealing with the good old boys’ club, having to dress and show up in certain ways, and working in a boring and stuffy environment, it’s easy to question whether the sacrifices are worth it.
In today’s episode, I’m exploring ideas of how to shake things up, push boundaries, and start to make corporate America more enjoyable for everyone.

I’m constantly seeing posts by other women encouraging collaboration over competition. While I understand the sentiment, it furthers the stereotype that women shouldn’t be ambitious or assertive. There is plenty of opportunity for us to compete and collaborate. If you ever worry about being perceived as competitive or if you think competition is a dirty word, this episode is for you!
Things I’m covering in this episode:
• Why women should compete – including against other women
• The double standard some women are unintentionally perpetuating that’s holding us all back
• When to compete and when to collaborate
• Why the real focus should be around women supporting other women as opposed to promoting the concept of “collaboration over competition”
• How embracing your competitive side helps ALL women win

If you’re a woman or minority, you’ve probably been added to a pitch team at the last minute. Whether expressly stated, you know you’ve been brought in as the “diversity add.” While you might be grateful for the opportunity, it’s difficult to stand out and shine when you’re given less time to prepare and not included in developing the initial strategy. In today’s episode, I’m sharing my best tips on how to handle these situations.
Things you will learn in this episode:
• Practical tips for making the most of an opportunity even when you’re a “diversity add”
• Ways to be proactive so you can gain pitch opportunities as an integral part of the team (rather than as a token member)
• How to communicate your expectations, and options to consider if you don’t get what you need
• Why you need to be in control of your career and decide what’s best for you
This episode was inspired by a listener question. You know who you are – thank you for reaching out! If you have a question or topic that you’d like me to consider for an upcoming episode, please email support@heatherjoyhubbard.com!
We often talk about the fear of failure, but we rarely consider the fear of success, which can be just as paralyzing. When a podcast listener asked if I’d address this, I wanted to know more. She shared that she’s been using the Life & Law PlannerTM and is now on track to reach her goals. Which is great, right? But the thought of reaching her goals is scaring her. She asked, “How do I deal with this fear?” I absolutely love this topic and can’t wait to dig in!
Things you’ll learn in this episode:
• Why we feel uncomfortable with too much happiness and success and start to assume something bad is about to happen
• What it means to hit an upper limit and the ways in which we self-sabotage our growth
• How success can create tension in our relationships or otherwise require us to show up in a new way
• What to do when you feel fear and anxiety related to your growth and success potential

Are you a solo attorney struggling with cash flow or paying yourself consistently? Or maybe you’re in-house or even a partner at BigLaw but feel as though there’s never enough money to give you the freedom to walk away, start a business, or retire when you choose? Today’s guest, Amber Dugger, was in corporate finance for 15 years before she started her own cash flow and profitability system.

If you’re a partner in a large firm (or perhaps even a medium sized firm), there’s likely an entire process you have to follow each year for your partner compensation and equity credits. Regardless of your firm’s process, it’s important that you plan ahead and play an active role.

In this episode, I’m taking a hard look at the data available on the status of women in the legal profession in the United States. Statistics don’t have to be boring because they tell stories - and these numbers say a lot.
