The little one’s been under the weather on and off this week—up most nights, not well at all.

It’s been tough.

But here’s the truth: we’re not robots. We’re human.

Lack of sleep hits hard. It affects how you think, work, lead.

Lack of sleep does impact performance.

I’m naturally high energy—because I believe energy is everything in business and life. But to protect it, I have to be intentional.

That means running.

That means setting boundaries.

That means designing a schedule that works for me and my family. (One of the perks of entrepreneurship.)

This week also brought its fair share of legal recruitment curveballs.

But the game isn’t won in a day—or even a week.

It ended on a high:

— A candidate landed an offer at their dream law firm
— A string of exciting interviews lined up
— And some major momentum behind the Legally Speaking Podcast

We’ve got big things coming. Including two standout new episodes:

— An exclusive with the CEO of the world’s largest litigation finance firm—with $7B+ committed globally. They give a rare behind-the-scenes look at how big money is reshaping the legal landscape.

— A conversation with one of the world’s leading neurotech legal experts—advising the World Economic Forum and beyond. They are unpacking the ethics and legal risks of mind-reading tech being trialled in courtrooms and workplaces today.

The takeaway?

A tough day—or a tough few—doesn’t define your week, your work, or your future.

Adapt.
Solve.
Show up.

The right opportunities always find those who stay in the game. 👊
