Manage episode 502729427 series 3289314
“I asked nobody for anything—I only asked how to get it.” — Brooke Goff
Most people see Brooke Goff’s face on a billboard and think success story. What they don’t see is the grind behind it: the Lyft rides at 4 a.m., the kitchen-table startup, the years without a paycheck, and the gamble of emptying her 401k at 29.
In this episode of LawHer, Brooke shares how she built her multi-million dollar empire from nothing—turning grit into visibility, and visibility into power with purpose. From the projects of upstate New York to one of the most recognizable lawyers in New England, her story proves you don’t wait for permission to lead—you claim your place, even if it means driving all night to make it happen.
