Season 2 of ABOTA Speaks continues with a thoughtful conversation that reflects on leadership, discipline, and the value of historical perspective.
Host Jake Courtney is joined by Talmage Boston, a trial lawyer, historian, and author, for a discussion about how studying the past can inform the way we think, lead, and practice law today. Drawing on his experience both in the courtroom and as a writer, Talmage shares insights into the habits of effective leaders, the discipline required for meaningful work, and why long-form thinking still matters.
In this episode, the conversation explores:
· How Talmage balances trial practice with writing and historical research
· What studying leadership across time reveals about preparation, character, and judgment
· Why curiosity, discipline, and reflection are essential traits for lawyers and leaders alike
