You’ve hired the bookkeeper. You’ve got the tax pro. You’re making money. So… why does it still feel like you're flying blind and low-key drowning?

In this episode, Brian sits down with Kelley Brubaker, a Fractional CFO who’s been called the Numbers Whisperer for law firms, and not in a “look at this pretty P&L” kind of way. She helps firm owners ditch the chaos, decode the metrics that actually matter, and stop scaling their misery.

They get into:

• Why your P&L is lying to you (and what to use instead)
• The KPI trap most lawyers fall into (and how to escape it)
• What “scaling” really means and why most firms do it backwards
• When to stop DIY-ing your finances and hire a grown-up

If you’ve ever said “I just want to grow,” without knowing what the hell that means, this is your wake-up call!

What’s the real return on all that time lawyers are spending posting on LinkedIn, Instagram, or YouTube?

In this special episode pulled from a recent GLM Tribe call, Ben Glass and Brian Glass have an honest conversation about what’s working, what’s not, and why social media might not be the magic bullet many lawyers are hoping for.

They share how they think about visibility, what role social media plays in their own firms, and what most lawyers get wrong about it. You’ll also hear how they balance short-form content, personal branding, referral building, and where they believe your next hour or dollar is best spent.

This isn’t about going viral. It’s about being seen, being trusted, and being intentional with your time and energy.

He left Big Law after 90 days to chase juries. Now Sharif Gray, Richmond trial lawyer and co-host of the RVA Trial Lawyers podcast, breaks down how authenticity (not interrogation) wins over jurors and drives real results in the courtroom.

We get into the hard stuff: valuing cases beyond medical specials and policy limits, the “speed-trial” mindset of cutting what doesn’t serve the story, and why parachuting in close to trial can actually sharpen your case. Sharif also shares a tough crime-victim matter that shows what accountability really looks like—and why some cases are worth saying “no” until it pays.

In this episode:

• Make authenticity your unfair advantage in voir dire
• Price pain and conduct—not just bills and limits
• Speed-trial thinking: cut to win
• Parachute-lawyering: fresh eyes, clearer themes
• Build a career around trials vs. running the business
• Get real reps (JAG, prosecution) when jury trials are scarce
• Intake filters that find clients who want accountability, not just a check
