    Can I pick your brain for a coffee? You may have asked or been asked this question. Unfortunately, there is a lot of do's and don'ts when you ask an expert.

    For those who are in tune with recent regulations in California, it is much more difficult to operate "business as usual." When I started practicing law, it was common to pay law clerks 50+ hrs/ week as 1099s. Today that would be CLEAR misclassification

    I’ve done ~500 podcast episodes as a host, but barely any as a guest. The podcast version of “always the bridesmaid, never the bride” ;) I’m going to change that and do a mini podcast tour in the next few months. What podcasts should I go on?
