Listen "Don't Go for the Shiny Object with Adele Anthony"
Episode Synopsis
We are back with a guest this week on the 'Mondays with Midja' podcast. In today's episode I sit down with Adele Anthony, founder, director, and principal lawyer of Your Legacy Lawyer.
Adele and I discuss:
Honing in on what you want to do and becoming great at it
Not getting distracted and blinded by shiny objects and ignoring red flags
Building the capabilities of your team and empowering them to be the best they can be and do the best work they can do
Extending trust to your team
And, of course, some dating advice; find someone who lets you be you and don't settle for less!
Happy listening and THANK GOD IT'S MONDAY

ABOUT OUR GUEST - Adele Anthony
I am the Principal Lawyer, Founder and Director of Your Legacy Lawyer, a Queensland-based mobile/virtual estate planning practice that I founded at the height of the Covid-19 pandemic. I live on the beautiful Gold Coast with my partner, Matthew.
I started in the legal industry over 30 years ago as a law clerk/paralegal and returned to study to qualify as a Solicitor in my early 40s.
I have a true appreciation for business not only from my studies, but also from many years running the very successful and multi-award-winning Fernwood Women’s Health Club in Toowoomba, Queensland, as well as a Healthy Habits franchise in Tweed City Shopping Centre. It was when I sold these businesses that I decided to return to university study. I think this gives me a well-rounded appreciation for the modern world of people, wealth and estate law.
I see clients on the Gold Coast, in Brisbane, in Toowoomba and everywhere else in between. I employ an amazing lady lawyer to assist me who also lives on the Gold Coast.
My aim is to provide Queenslanders with accessible and cost-effective legal solutions giving them peace of mind knowing their assets, future and loved ones are protected. I don’t have a fancy office. I work from home. I don’t work Monday to Friday, 9-5. I see clients when and where it is convenient for them.
I have a Bachelor of Laws (First Class Honours) and a Bachelor of Business (Marketing) from Griffith University, a Graduate Diploma of Legal Practice from Australian National University, and a Master of Law (Applied) majoring in Wills and Estates.
My life outside law is busy as well. I have three adult children, two adult step-daughters, six grandchildren ranging in age from 3 months to 18 years old and three doggies.
