Learning how to "read a room" sometimes the office is a political playground, so know when to play "the game" vs. keeping it too real lol.

Getting a mentor/sponsor. It helps broaden horizons. If you get a great mentor they can open doors for you buy introducing you to different areas, people..

I started my career in ministry making 25k annually (and was “higher paid” 😳) and after several moves, make around $120k annually. A few things:

your network matters, cultivate it and invest in people who may not directly be in your field.

Focus on learning new skills: titles and JD’s change, you add the most value when you have a variety of skills.

Work for people and teams who support your goals and will enable your career vs. restrict opportunities.

A reminder to those who are stressed about your billable hours that your value is more than your pure productivity. To those stressed about relationships, relationships are hard even for non-lawyers, but you are absolutely worthy of love. It is an important reminder for all of us that you are worthy and you are valuable. Keep fighting!

Can someone walk me through the Do's and Don't's of AA miles? I think they're a joke.

I have 65k miles and I could only pay for a one-way ticket from PHX-JFK. I had to book 1 leg with miles and the 1 with cash, but booking the other leg in cash was about 80% of the round trip in cash.

My mom has 12k miles that expire soon, transferring them would cost me $450. I can pay for a round trip with that cash but I can only pay for a trip to my kitchen with those 12k miles.

What am I doing wrong? 😂

Interesting discussion with agency CFO recently. Client-agency contracts are becoming performance based, less execution. Looks like if your spot won't bring in 💰💰 for the client, it's dead on pitch.
