Episode 13: 8 Mindsets That Could Be Hurting Your Paralegal Career

In this guest episode of the Paralegals on Fire! Podcast Show, Ann Pearson talks with Dan Moulder, paralegal manager and author of the book “The Lunch.” In the book, Dan tells a story about an annual corporate lunch that highlights eight characters with mindsets that are limiting them in life and work.

In the show, Ann and Dan discuss how paralegals can apply the lessons learned in the book to their careers and what they can do to change these limiting mindsets.

In addition to some great advice on these mindsets, Dan also gives us insight into the process of writing a book for those of you who may be thinking about writing a book.

Show Highlights

  • How self-awareness can help you achieve success
  • How to know if you have any of these limiting mindsets
  • The importance of knowing when to speak up
  • Recognizing that changing your mindset could make you happier at work
