What if the most powerful healthcare provider in America isn't a hospital—it's your employer? In this episode, host Matt Campobasso puts a radical idea on trial: that employers are uniquely positioned to solve America's health crisis. His guest, Cara Lenz—leadership transformation coach, former Apple talent and development manager, and author of Health Wanted, Enquire Within—argues that companies are the only major stakeholder whose bottom line actually improves when employees are genuinely well. Together, they follow the money through a healthcare system that profits from illness, unpack the science of burnout as a workplace-created syndrome, and explore why wellbeing isn't a perk or a personality trait—it's a teachable skill that belongs in the same training catalog as project management and giving feedback. Cara shares her own story of quitting her dream job, fleeing to a Caribbean island, and discovering that the stress followed her there—a lesson that reshaped her entire framework. They walk through the five inquiries from her book, tackle the toughest objections ("aren't we just turning managers into therapists?"), and land on something disarmingly simple: people shouldn't have to choose between their health and their career.

• Exhibit A – Follow the Money: Why employers are the only entity that loses when you're sick—and the trillion-dollar productivity cost they're already paying
• Exhibit B – The Water We Swim In: How work reshapes your emotional state every single day, and the question no leader thinks to ask
• Exhibit C – Wellbeing Is Not a Vacation: Cara's island experiment and why changing your scenery without changing your skills is just pattern interruption
• Exhibit D – The Five Inquiries: A practical, inside-out framework for functioning well under pressure—starting with "What do I believe?"
• Objection Overruled: Why this isn't about replacing healthcare or turning bosses into therapists—it's about teaching a skill set employers are already built to deliver
• Micro Tools for Monday Morning: Two things any leader can do this week—look to yourself first, and ask your team one question you've probably never asked

Remember—whatever your case is, don't be afraid to build it and carry it out into the real world.

In a career spanning more than 100 formal depositions, host Matt Campobasso has watched the full spectrum of human behavior under pressure—the liars, the saints, the corporate warriors, and the whistleblowers. And every single time, a witness says something in the first five minutes that tempts him to deliver a final verdict on the spot. But if he snapped that folder shut and walked out of every deposition after five minutes, he wouldn't just be wrong—he'd be committing professional malpractice.

In this solo episode, Matt makes the case that we've imported that same malpractice into our everyday lives. We live in a high-velocity judgment culture where a single political take, a bumper sticker, or an offhanded comment is enough to make us label someone, lock the door, and throw away the key. Drawing on neuroscience, litigation strategy, and a decade of courtroom experience, Matt introduces "The Deposition Discipline"—a framework for trading snap verdicts for patient discovery in the courtroom of life—and argues that the shortcut to being right is the longest road to being lonely.

Whether you're leading a team, navigating a divided family dinner, or just trying to build deeper relationships in a world designed to keep things shallow, this episode makes the case for staying in the room long after your ego has started looking for the exit.

• The Biological Shortcut: Why your brain is a prediction machine built for the savanna—and how its ancient survival templates are catastrophically misfiring in polarized workplaces, fractured communities, and divided families.
• The Deposition Discipline: The litigation-tested tool for replacing snap verdicts with curiosity—why the best lawyers don't walk out when a witness says something ridiculous, they lean in and ask "tell me more."
• The Connection Tax: How misunderstanding creates a compounding debt on your professional output and personal relationships—and why "trench warfare" in the workplace buries speed, creativity, and innovation.
• The Loneliness Verdict: Why judging people quickly curates your life down to a hall of mirrors that feels safe but is hollow—and how we've replaced the messy work of understanding with the sterile work of grouping.
• The Cross-Examination: Matt takes on the two toughest objections head-on—"some people are just bad" and "I don't have the time"—and explains why refusing to understand an opposing idea is like a doctor refusing to study a virus.
• The Origin Inquiry: The exact phrase—"Help me understand how you got there"—that drops someone's identity shield and gives you access to the inputs you're missing.
• The Snapshot Audit: How to identify one person you've filed away as "just one of those people" and find the common ground that has nothing to do with what you disagree on.
• The Discovery Delay: The practice of staying a judgment until discovery is complete—because real growth happens in the minute after you want to leave.
• The Mirror Mercy Test: Before you write someone off for a bad 10 seconds, ask yourself: what's the worst 10-second snapshot of my life—and would I want to be judged by it forever?

The Case For the Legal Builder Model

In the fall of 2008, a new technology quietly appeared that most people dismissed as a curiosity. But as a professional and legal operator,Salvador Carranza saw something different—not a toy, but a "front door" being rebuilt from the ground up.

In this episode, host Matt Campobasso sits down with Sal, the founder of PossibLaw, to explore the "Legal Builder Model." This framework is the result of a decade-long friendship and ongoing dialogue about the future of the profession. We dive deep into the specific, often counter-intuitive strategies Sal has developed for transforming legal professionals from reactive problem-solvers into proactive architects of systems—and why the window to make that shift is closing faster than most lawyers realize.

Whether you're a solo practitioner, a BigLaw associate, or a chief legal officer running a lean team, this episode makes the case for choosing systems over instinct and builders over bystanders.

• The Front Door Thesis: Why the way people access legal services is changing forever—and what it means for every lawyer still waiting by the old entrance.

• Tastemakers vs. Pattern-Matchers: How lawyer incentives are built around judgment and opinion, and why AI is now competing for the role of the ultimate "Pattern-Matcher."

• Software Eats Legal: The four foundational forces—Marc Andreessen, Charlie Munger, Damien Riehl, and the "Front Door"—that explain why this moment is a seismic shift, not just a trend.

• Raising the Ceiling: Why the real opportunity in legal AI isn't making the basics cheaper—it's enabling lawyers to do things that were previously impossible.

• The Cross-Examination: Matt and Sal go head-to-head on whether veteran lawyers can ever truly compete with AI-native colleagues—proving that compounding knowledge, not native fluency, is the real edge.

• The Force Multiplier Audit: How to map your current workload and identify which 60% is costing you the other 40%—the proactive work that actually moves the needle.

• The Reverse-Prompt Technique: After a great AI output, ask:"What prompt would have gotten me here instantly?" Save it. Build your personal playbook one conversation at a time.

• The Front Door Moment: How to reframe your team's next technology discussion—from "how do we protect what we do?" to "how do we shape what comes next?"
