In this episode of No Clubs Required, we sit down with Brie Leung, Founder of Red Bird Strategy, to talk about strategy as service, the invisible work women carry, and what it really takes to drive meaningful change within law firms.

Brie shares how she has built her career around two guiding principles: the people she works with and the impact she has. As a trusted thought partner to firm leaders, she offers candid insight into the systemic barriers women face, from being labeled “too nice” to carrying the emotional and cultural labor that often goes unrecognized.

This episode is about giving yourself grace and remembering that supporting people—not just delivering services—is where real progress begins.
