After going dark for what feels like years, the team from Her Lawyer are away with their first ever episode of their new podcast – The Business Behind the Business — and a lot has changed.

Courtney and Isabel catch up on everything that’s happened behind the scenes: divorce, babies, marriage, relocation and new business partnerships.

We talk about what’s happening on our desk right now, including an exciting collaboration with an entrepreneur, influencer and educator to develop custom legal templates — and why IP ownership matters when you’re building partnerships and creating content together.

Help us dissect the collapse of Selena Gomez’s mental health startup, Wondermind: a fascinating case study in knowing your partners, doing your homework and dotting all the i’s and crossing all the t’s.

And because no episode of The Business Behind the Business would be complete without something we’ve read on the internet, Courtney and Isabel unpack Claude’s move to digitally watermark content created or edited with its AI tools — and ask what that could mean for businesses using AI heavily.

It’s a catch-up, a business reality check and a reminder that behind every successful business are people making big decisions, taking risks and occasionally dealing with things going very, very wrong.

In this episode:

• What’s changed in Courtney and Isabel’s lives since Her Lawyer was last active online
• What’s happening behind the scenes at Her Lawyer
• What to think about when collaborating with influencers, educators and other business owners
• What the Wondermind story can teach us about business deals
• What AI watermarking could mean for businesses using Claude
• The questions businesses should be asking about AI-generated content and IP ownership

This is The Business Behind the Business — law, strategy and straight talk for women building businesses that work for them.

Let’s get into it.
