    Lawyer with a life - Jordan Ostroff

    On this episode of The Tiberius Show, Tiberius talks with Jordan Ostroff, attorney and owner of Carp DM Consulting, who helps lawyers build businesses that don’t burn them out. Jordan is known for working around 24 hours a week, using systems, delegation, and automation so work fits into life — not the other way around. This isn’t your typical lawyer interview. It’s a real conversation about defining success, protecting mental health, and building a career that doesn’t replace your family, your health, or your happiness.  In this episode, you’ll learn: •    Why “being busy” can actually mean you’re stuck, not winning •    What lawyers really do (argue over words in laws and contracts!) •    The shocking reality of burnout in the legal profession •    How Jordan transitioned from courtroom life to running a business •    Why “if your business needs you nonstop, you don’t have a business — you have a job” •    The #1 mistake professionals make with their time (and how to fix it) •    How automation and systems create freedom •    Why critical thinking is a superpower for teens (especially in the AI era) Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-tiberius-show--3352195/support.
