In this episode, Pat Miller sits down with Damian Conforti, a former prosecutor turned trusted corporate counsel, to unpack what it really means to practice the business of law. Damian shares how relearning law through an entrepreneurial lens transformed the way he advises CEOs, founders, and leadership teams facing real-world operational and governance challenges. Rather than just reacting to legal problems, Damian explains why the most valuable counsel anticipates risk, understands the business inside and out, and empowers leaders to make smarter decisions—before issues ever reach the courtroom. In this conversation, you'll hear about: Why effective legal counsel requires an entrepreneurial mindset The difference between practicing law for businesses vs. with business leaders How CEOs can leverage lawyers as strategic partners—not just problem solvers If you're a founder, executive, or advisor navigating high-stakes decisions, this episode will change how you think about law, leadership, and long-term strategy. Press play and start thinking like both an owner and a lawyer. ✨ Connect with Host Pat Miller Instagram thepatmiller11 Website patmiller.net","meta_description":"What happens when a lawyer stops thinking like a prosecutor—and starts thinking like a business owner?
