CLIENT DEMANDS. NOT ENOUGH SUPPORT. ALWAYS AVAILABLE. MANAGEMENT HEADACHES. THE NEED TO DEVELOP BUSINESS.
There are a million reasons why you feel as if you’ve lost your mojo as a lawyer… HOW DO YOU REGAIN IT FOR GOOD?
Lawyer Business Coach Heather Moulder, J.D.
Business coaching services for lawyers ready to get to your next level of success + impact without sacrificing yourself in the process.
You’re wicked smart and provide top-notch results to your clients. And yet you often…
- Feel discouraged because your business isn’t growing like you want, especially given the time and effort you’ve put into it.
- Wonder “What am I missing?”, as you marvel at the success of a colleague (who isn’t even that good of a technical lawyer).
- Struggle to make time for the long-term strategic planning necessary to grow a sustainable legal practice or law firm (will you ever be able to find the space for this?)
- Question whether you have what it takes to master the business-of-law? [Hint: you do – even if you’re an introvert].
- Fumble your words when asking for business (and feel uncertain about how to distinguish yourself from your peers without sounding disingenuous).
Heather will reenergize you professionally.
When I first came to Heather, I was overwhelmed by my workload and the pressure to build more business. Working with her enabled me to let go of the (mostly self-imposed) pressure I felt while increasing my business by over $100,000.
Heather takes a highly individualized approach that delivers.
She spends time getting to know your strengths, weaknesses (real and perceived) and values. This helped me find and laser focus on the business development techniques that play to my strengths and fit to my personality.
Thanks to our work together, I increased originations by close to 30% in one year. My only regret is that I didn’t work with her sooner!
According to a recent ABA survey, 51% of women leave law firms due to the emphasis on marketing and originating business.
and based on my experience as a lawyer and lawyer business coach, I know that plenty of men leave law firms for similar reasons.
Like most lawyers, you probably thought you’d get the business, marketing and sales training you needed as you progressed up the proverbial law firm ladder. But the training has either been nonexistent or severely lacking.
You’ve come to realize you’re tired of feeling intimidated by the business-of-law. You’re ready to take control and do something about it.
After more than 18 years as a private practice lawyer – where I grew my business from zero to over $1MM in less than two years, and then to more than $2.5MM thereafter – I knew I could help other lawyers confidently master the business-of-law.
Because knowing all the things you could be doing isn’t the same as knowing what is best for you to actually be doing.
Hey there, I’m Heather Moulder.
ATTORNEY. CANCER SURVIVOR. HOST OF THE LIFE & LAW PODCAST.
I traded in my $2.5MM practice to help lawyers build their ideal practice around the life they actually want (and quit the hustle-and-grind-paper-only-success lifestyle forever).
Here’s what I know about you…
From the outside looking in, you’re successful.
Yet your business isn’t where you want it to be, and you feel a bit intimidated by the business-of-law. Although you know all the things you could – and some of what you should – be doing, you have questions.
Where should you start? What should be your main area of focus right now?
You’re ambitious and willing to work.
But you don’t want to spin your wheels on the wrong things, and are frustrated you don’t have a strategic plan in place for your business. And you can’t help but wonder whether it’s possible to have a profitable business and fulfilling personal life. [Short answer: yes].
You provide top-notch legal work to your clients.
But you’ve come to realize there’s more to being successful than good lawyering. It’s time to embrace your practice as the business it is.
Imagine getting the knowledge and support you need to create – and implement – a strategic plan that’s tailored specifically to your strengths, personality and goals.

Heather will help you get to the next level without losing yourself in the process.
The results of working with Heather – individually and within her mastermind – speak for themselves… a more than 20x return on investment.
Here Is What’s Included With Next Level Business Coaching Services
Deep-Dive Strategy Session (90 Minutes)
Meet 1-to-1 with Heather to dive deep into your business, identify goals that create maximum impact and create a strengths-based strategic business development plan. You’ll walk away with a simple business growth plan and next steps for getting started.
12 individual coaching & consulting sessions with Heather
You’ll be challenged to think in new ways, receive a fresh perspective, and get strategies tailored to your strengths, needs and personality. This is hybrid coaching and consulting designed to help you discover your answers (not just be told what to do), excel as a leader and make practicing law fun again.

Develop new habits for success
Learn practical strategies for how to create healthy habits and thrive post-coaching. Examples of how this looks in life… Letting go of perfectionism, befriending your inner critic, implementing systems for your business and creating strong boundaries (you feel good about enforcing).

Because I want you to be able to move on without my help, you’ll learn how to get yourself from problem to solution and seamlessly tackle whatever roadblocks life puts in front of you without overthinking or over-stressing.
Your investment: $7,500
How that translates into your day-to-day, based on real results from real clients:
- Increasing revenues by more than $200,000 (in less than one year).
- Feeling reenergized professionally.
- Increasing originations by 30% (from the prior year).
- Being promoted from associate (or of-counsel) to partner.
- Getting over the $1MM mark in originations.

- Improving your EQ & leadership skills.

- Increasing your referral network, and the # of monthly new cases.
- Sharpen your business ideas, bolster your confidence.
Thanks to my work with Heather, I’m on track to exceed my stretch revenue goals.
Heather helped me assemble the jigsaw puzzle of my thoughts in a way that made sense so that I could put them into practice. I now have confidence in my ability to run a business.
I recommend Heather to anyone wanting strategic legal career advice and accountability.
She provided the perfect life raft amid the COVID shutdown that calmed my mind, enabled me to think more strategically, and gave me the fresh perspective that I needed.
The business development intimidation factor that had been holding me back has been eliminated.
Business development is no longer an ambiguous concept or theory, but consists of real-world strategies that I can implement immediately. I now realize that I’d been sidelining myself assuming that I didn’t have time for proper business development. And that small habits can create big changes.
I highly recommend working with Heather. You’ll be challenged but you’ll see real results if you put in the work.
Heather provides relevant, industry-specific coaching and advice that’s thoughtful, transparent and honest.
Heather is perfect for lawyers who have reached a point where they question their purpose, and wonder whether their values align with their current work and work environment.
Heather’s techniques are especially powerful when making difficult, real-world decisions. She teaches the tools for how to make these decisions with confidence.
I’m not like most coaches…
Who Never Practiced Law Or Did But Just Barely
Here’s what you need to know about me…
Not only did I practice law for over 18 years but I built a thriving ($2.5MM+) business while staying true to myself…
… After losing everything in the 2008 financial crisis (right after being promoted to partner), and also while navigating my way through 2 pregnancies (and bed rests!) and a battle with breast cancer.
The #1 thing clients tell me is that I’m not just a coach or consultant, but a partner. I’m your biggest cheerleader who’s willing to give you the truth (in a positive way) AND partner with you to figure out your best strategies for achieving the results you want.
And I’ll be with you every step of the way to keep you accountable to your goals, increase your productivity and brainstorm with you through roadblocks.
Are you ready to grow your business and you?
I’m ready to teach you what’s worked for me and my clients (that will be the foundation for your success for years to come).
What Current + Past Clients Want You To Know
Heather understands the challenges of balancing business development, running a successful practice and maintaining a personal life. I recommend her to any attorney who struggles with or wants help developing a bigger book of business.
Heather goes above and beyond for her clients. Her secret weapon is her combination of practical, step-by-step guidance tailored to your business needs coupled with her mindset coaching that keeps you motivated to keep going despite how hard it might feel.
I love how insightful, practical, and direct Heather is! She has an amazing ability to identify the core issues and offer specific, concrete advice.
Heather is insightful and astute – she’s in the right business. Everyone needs a Heather in their lives!
“Heather is a gift to the legal community. She has a unique way of being compassionate and motivating while holding you accountable to your goals.”
Working with Heather, I discovered that the solutions were already in my mind. She is quite versed in breaking down thought patterns and using great analogies with actual steps to resolve issues.
Got Questions? Here are answers to the most common questions…
How Big Is The Time Commitment (I'm Already So Busy)?
I’m known for my blunt honesty, and so here’s the truth…
You need time + space to do this work. And honestly, you make time for the things you care about.
The question becomes… What do you truly want? If building a profitable, fulfilling practice is top of the list, you won’t ever have it if you don’t first make the time for building it.
The more time you put in the more you’ll get out of your investment.
But please note: you’ll be building the foundational skills and habits you need that will save you time and energy in the future. And it won’t take up nearly as much time as you think.
Our meetings last about 45-50 minutes in length plus you’ll have a 90 minute Deep-Dive Strategy Session with me. Other than that, the amount of time you spend is up to you.
Why a 12-session commitment (can I choose something less)?
Making big changes (to your habits, your life and your practice) don’t just happen overnight. This is the minimum time needed to create habits and start seeing real results from your efforts.
Take a look at the testimonials above to see why this commitment is worth it.
What Results Can I Expect?
While I can’t guarantee specific results, I’m 100% committed to you and will always bring my best to our coaching.
The truth is that there’s no magic bullet. Your results are dependent on the work you put in.
But know that the framework works. Not only has it worked for me but it has worked for my clients too.
Is your business where you want it to be? Do you have a clear roadmap for how to get it to where you want it to be? Do you feel confident when it comes to the business-of-law side of the equation?
If the answer is “no” to any/all of the above, ask whether you can afford NOT to get help (whether it’s from me or someone else).
I’d rather put my money on a proven coach and attorney who built a $2.5MM+ business of her own and helps her clients do the same using a proven framework vs. hoping “IT” happens on its own soon.
What's Your Refund Policy?
No one has ever requested a refund and I don’t expect you to. That’s why we must chat first. It helps:
- Me determine whether (and how) I can help you,
- You to get your questions answered, and
- Both of us to effectively determine whether partnering together is a fit.
But should you decide – for whatever reason – to cancel after getting started I do have a refund policy (which you’ll find here).
What's The Process For How This Works?
Book a call with Heather here to chat about what’s best for you at this time + get your questions answered.
If we both determine to move forward, you’ll receive an invoice and your coaching contract. Once you’ve paid in full and signed your contract, we’ll get started.
What About Confidentiality (Especially If My Employer Pays)?
I take my clients’ privacy and confidentiality seriously, and am subject to the ICF Code of Ethics (which can be found here).
Before we begin working together, we’ll sign a coaching agreement that contains specific provisions around confidentiality (that will apply to our arrangement regardless of who pays).
