## Resource

A new year and a new number on the podcast episodes feels like the perfect time to slow down for a moment and get back to some foundational questions. In this episode, I’m kicking off a reboot of The Agile Attorney Podcast with a return to first principles. You'll discover why so many legal professionals feel pressure to do more and more work, why that so often leads to overwhelm and burnout, and how you can start to prevent that overwhelm by focusing on what it really means to be agile in a world that keeps demanding more.
