She’s a successful trial attorney arguing high-stakes cases, but after becoming a mother, the inner tug to redefine herself beyond the courtroom surfaced loudly. Monica Burkoth, our guest, was challenged to look inward to find fulfillment through an authentic expression of herself, service to others, and something she was afraid might damage the way she was perceived in the legal world… a podcast. 

Balancing Act: How Monica Burkoth Merged Motherhood, Law, and Entrepreneurship 

Listen in to hear how Monica bravely faced the fear of judgment from her professional peers to pursue her passion for Personal Development and spirituality. Her story helps illuminate our shared desire to set an empowering example for our children, while noting that often the biggest obstacles are the ones we create in our minds. 

Key moments include:  

• The significance of maintaining financial stability while growing a business, and the challenges that come with offering services for free.  

• Challenges in building an audience versus creating a product first 

• Fears around how bosses, colleagues, friends, family, and others will judge your work once it goes public 

• Finding the balance between your business being a passion project and making Money 

Personal and Professional Growth through Law, Motherhood, and Coaching 

Confidence is key, whether in the courtroom or behind a podcast microphone. Monica reveals how her background in law has uniquely equipped her to build confidence in others. We touch on her clever brand, Confidence Counsel, and how she’s leveraging her legal expertise to empower others to embrace their voice.

Virginia Elder Founder | Podcast Editor & Manager

With a robust foundation of 15+ years in project management, client service, and strategic organization, I make things happen. I shine brightest in the behind-the-scenes support role, aiding entrepreneurs in becoming visible through content marketing. Podcasting is just one avenue; my expertise lies in helping you expand your reach, attract leads, and boost revenue, all while you focus on what you do best.

My journey into podcast editing began with a simple 'yes' to a friend's podcast project in 2019. This led to a whirlwind of copywriting and audio editing endeavors, eventually liberating me from my 9-5 job and empowering me to forge my own business path. Moreover, it enabled me to live my dream of walking my kids to and from school daily.

When you entrust your raw audio and video recordings, web copy dreams, weekly newsletter musings, and blog post aspirations to me, you're gifting yourself the freedom to concentrate on serving your clients, nurturing leads, and envisioning your business's next big leap. I handle the content creation, editing, and publishing process, allowing you to breathe easy and concentrate on your passion.
