Episode 423 — AMMA — How to Actually Scale Your Standards
When growth starts to feel messy, the real risk is not the chaos. It’s what you quietly allow to slide.
In this episode of The Game Changing Attorney Podcast, Michael and Jessica Mogill reflect on the last AMMA of the year and explore a recurring insight that emerges as firms scale. Most breakdowns do not start with big failures. They start with paper cuts, rushed training, and hires made out of urgency instead of alignment. This conversation unpacks how leaders should think when growth forces them to loosen their grip, without lowering the standard that got them there.
Here’s what you’ll learn:
- When to recognize growing pains are signaling an actual standards problem, and not just temporary chaos
- How to approach training and delegation when you cannot be as hands-on, without letting quality slide
- How to evaluate hires made out of necessity and decide when filling a seat helps growth or quietly hurts it
This final AMMA of the year offers a clear lens for scaling responsibly without normalizing mediocrity in 2026.

Show Notes:
Growth reveals what you actually tolerate. “If you start allowing small things to slide, that becomes the new standard.”
World-class execution lives in the details. “It is not the big things that separate excellence. It is the accumulation of small things done right.”
Social media hides more than it shows. “You have no idea what someone’s life or business really looks like from a post.”
Balance is not automatic. It is built. “You earn time freedom by building systems, people, and depth.”
Not every opportunity is worth the cost. “Sometimes saying no is not a business failure. It is the right decision.”
