The summit involves presentations and speeches from keynote speakers, lawyers, and other experts. This year’s theme was “Great Practice, Great Life.” [4:47] According to Mark powers, you need to establish a “health reserve” for when you will need it. Everyone will start to experience health challenges in older age, but those who are healthier to begin with will be more likely to survive them. [7:52] Diana’s first highlight is Colleen Goldenfarb’s presentation, “Why Does Work Get the Best of You, and Your Loved Ones Get the Rest of You?” One aspect that resonated with Diana was the idea that time does not equal presence. [13:05] Marc’s first highlight is Glen Finch. Glen has been an Atticus advisor for over 20 years, but he is also a Colonel in the army. He spoke about the ability to manage your thoughts and feelings and how emotional intelligence can improve your work. [19:05] Victor Medina’s presentation, “The Perpetual Law Firm” also stood out to Diana. Only lawyers can own law firms, so selling your law firm can be difficult. He discussed how to maintain your law firm as an asset without having to work there. [22:34] Another highlight for Marc was Jennifer Felton’s presentation on building her practice and taking control of her health. She said that greatness lies at the intersection of passion, skill, and monetization. [27:14] Diana’s final highlight is Max Lugavere’s talk on unlocking your brain’s potential. He gave actionable tips about improving your brain function and preventing dementia. [31:09] Marc’s last highlight is Robert Rose’s presentation on harnessing the power of your brand’s voice – in other words, making money off of your brand. The process involves building your audience and then finding ways to monetize that audience. [39:44] Marc is a spokesperson for Atticus and credits them for the success of his practice.
