I'm Jim, and I'm a lawyer.

But I don't write about legal topics.

I write about leadership and personal growth.

Why learn from me?

I bring an expertise you won’t find anywhere else online.

Besides leading teams in multiple law firms for years...

And starting two law practices from scratch...

In 2017 I branched out … I co-founded a telehealth website where we helped people overcome excess drinking through medication-assisted treatment and personal development coaching.

What’s the link to lawyering?

As a lawyer, I defend against injury cases that require a deep understanding of medicine and psychology. 

I’ve deposed over 300 doctors and mental health providers, diving into medical and psychological concepts at their level.

I transferred that skill set, along with years of solving problems for clients, into the wellness and personal growth space.

I applied my analytical skills, the same I use to dissect real-world, complex legal cases, to pick apart the science behind personal development.

I crafted not just medical solutions (through the doctors we contracted with) but also systemized, actionable, personal growth training for our patients.

And we didn’t just aim to restore patients to an average level of health...

We transformed their lives through growth-focused skills ⚡

Here are a few testimonials we received from patients that went through our program:

✅ “This program didn’t just change my habits - it gave me the confidence and clarity to control my life in ways I never thought possible."

✅ “Your support and coaching is invaluable. I’m so lucky to have you and Alcure. It has helped immensely.”

✅ “I especially wanted you to know that your videos alone were worth the first month. You do great work!”

✅ "Loved your videos on Life Hacks, Minimalism, and Gratitude.”

✅ “My future looks so much brighter! Thank you. I was skeptical, but now I’m proof that this approach works. I can’t wait to see where I go from here.”

After helping 400+ people (many during the pandemic) and generating over $500,000 in revenue, we wrapped up the project in 2023.

Now I’m onto new ventures.

Some more about me:

✅ Made over $500,000 in revenue with a telehealth website while maintaining a full-time law practice

✅ Thomson Reuters ranked Super Lawyer (2012-2025), top 5% in Southern California

✅ Invited speaker

Learn to lead yourself.
Learn to lead others.

James Kamanski

Everyone has a timeline in their head.
Most of that pressure comes from comparing your path to someone else’s.

But life does not unfold on a schedule.
Growth shows up at its own pace.

You can be:
+ lost at 22
+ broke at 28
+ unsure at 31
+ starting over at 35
+ finally rising at 38
+ finding your purpose at 42
and unstoppable at 47.

None of that means you failed.
It means you’re still becoming the person you’re supposed to be.

Progress is not linear.
Purpose takes time.
And greatness grows quietly before anyone else notices it.

✅ Trust your pace.
✅ Trust your path.
✅ You are not behind.

You’re building something worth waiting for.

Retention is cheaper than replacement.
Every time.

Hiring feels expensive.
But replacing great people costs far more.

Here’s what replacement actually includes ↓

→ Lost knowledge and context
→ Months of reduced productivity
→ Hiring fees and onboarding time
→ Team morale taking a hit
→ Leaders stretched thin filling gaps

Most exits do not happen because of money alone.
They happen because people feel unseen, unsupported, or exhausted.

Treating people well is not a perk.
It is a strategy.

✅ Fair pay.
✅ Respect.
✅ Room to grow.
✅ Clear expectations.

Do that consistently and your best people stop looking elsewhere.

The cheapest talent decision you can make is keeping the people who already believe in the work.

The most underrated career skill?
Taking tough love without taking it personally.

Knowledge is everywhere.
Feedback is rare.

Because once people realize you can’t handle the truth,
they stop telling you the truth.

That’s when growth stops.

The people who rise the fastest aren’t the ones who know it all:
They’re the ones who can hear hard things and use them well.

They ask instead of defend.
They listen instead of react.
They improve instead of argue.

If you want to grow fast, don’t chase praise.
Seek honesty - even when it stings.

That’s where real development begins.
