Episode Description
Catherine Montiel is the kind of attorney you want in your corner — smart, fearless, fiercely loyal, and completely devoted to the people she represents. As a partner at Miller Montiel & Strano, P.C., Catherine has built relationships with clients that span generations, representing families from grandparents all the way down to their grandkids.
But this episode is personal for me. Catherine was my boss when I was basically a kid, working my way through college and law school. Somehow, all these years later, the boss became a colleague — and, even better, a friend.
We talk about building a career with both strength and heart, raising two spectacular adults while being the ultimate mama bear, and the very funny side of Catherine that her courtroom opponents might not always get to see. We also get into one of her most defining characteristics: she may be a fearless attorney, but put the wrong food in front of this ridiculously picky eater and all bets are off.
We chat about how, for us, being working moms made us better at doing both jobs! And then Catherine reveals a hidden talent I definitely did not see coming: apparently she can sing all “Fifty Nifty United States.”
