One of the challenges in owning a closely-held business is that it’s hard to get a day off. That’s come to mind for me as I’m en route to California for the rest of the week to attend Peak Potentials’ Train the Trainer workshop. I’ve been salivating over this program since I registered for it 5 months ago, and now the time has come! Friends of mine who have taken it call it “profound,” “mind-blowing,” and “a complete mind-shift.” They also caution me that “you’ll be going from 9am to midnight” and that “there’s little room for bathroom breaks, let alone time to check for voicemail.” It’s that latter part that concerns me (although the prospect of long lines for the ladies’ room is not an attractive prospect, either).

I know first-hand that running a knowledge-based service business has unique challenges. It’s so much easier when you have an advocate in your corner. Over the past 25 years, I’ve worked with thousands of New York business professionals who want a legal advisor to guide and support them as they navigate the business world.
With wide-ranging experience as a business attorney, strategist, and media authority, I bring the added power of a business lens to the legal issues my clients are facing.
And because I’ve been a business owner myself, I’ve lived through the soaring highs and devastating lows – like when my first law firm failed. So I understand what’s involved to serve great clients, detect business risks early and build a true legacy.
I can’t get those 12 years back. That’s why I have made it my mission to ensure that business professionals like you can become wise and discerning leaders, build a solid business, and live your best life.
