Wendy MeadowsGUEST
So I believe with Sparkle and Grit, you can achieve pretty much anything, or if we look at the Sparkle and Grit mindset.

Wendy MeadowsGUEST
But Sparkle, I define, is that hint of inspiration lying in your path designed to wake you up.

Wendy MeadowsGUEST
You see one of your friends doing something or you see a cool like ad in a coffee shop or you see something on Instagram and you're like, oh, that kind of piques my interest.

Wendy MeadowsGUEST
Like as a human being, it's like an activity or it's a role or it's a career change or it's just something.

I would love to know for you, what is your technicolor life? What does that look like for you now?

Wendy MeadowsGUEST
And then I would say l- most of the people I work with is they're in a smaller, like, boutique firm.

Wendy MeadowsGUEST
They're never, there's not really a clear line of sight for them to be a partner.

How AI Is Changing Legal Billing and Client Value

Wendy MeadowsGUEST
So what I'm doing differently, just because I am so much more efficient with AI, and what used to take me an hour will now take me a .1, I've moved to more of a flat-fee approach for certain items.

Wendy MeadowsGUEST
So for example, like a complaint that, again, would take me an hour, now a .1, that's a flat fee.

Wendy MeadowsGUEST
And the work that I do that is not in person or talking to somebody on the phone or in a meeting, I have flat fees for that work.

Wendy MeadowsGUEST
And then when I am talking to someone in other ways, I still bill the traditional model.

Jim CallowayHOST
Do you think you'll ever progress to the situation, Wendy, where you do things on a total flat fee with no real saving grace if it takes too much time? [laughs]
