OM DENNE EPISODE
In the eighteenth episode of How to Run a Law Firm in 2025, Mathew Kerbis and I got personal. We talked about what it’s really like to run a law firm and a household, especially as parents.
We shared how we navigate the demands of our practices while being present for our families and the systems we've built to make it all work. For Mathew, entrepreneurship has meant the flexibility to take on more household duties and be there for his child in a way traditional legal roles didn’t allow. For me, it’s been about setting boundaries, streamlining tasks at home and at work, and defining what balance actually means for me.
We also talked about the role of supportive partners and community—how having people around you who understand (and help) makes all the difference. And we wrapped it all up by asking a powerful question: What does “enough” look like for you? In terms of time, money, energy—what’s truly enough to feel fulfilled?
If you’re building a life alongside your business, this episode is for you.
P.S. Stay tuned—we’ve got a bonus episode coming soon about incorporating subscription models into your law practice!
