Leaving Big Law to Scale Legal Tech: How Purpose and Soul Work Drive Future Law with Ben Chiriboga [Ep. 18]

What if the real innovation happens not in the spotlight but in the shadows?

In this episode of Legal Innovation Simplified, I sit down with Ben Chiriboga, legal tech executive and host of This Legal Life, to explore his bold journey from Big Law to legal tech, and eventually to soul-led storytelling and conscious leadership in law. We talk about ego, golden shadow, values shifts across life stages, and what it really means to innovate with heart.

Whether you’re navigating a pivot, wondering what you’ve left behind in pursuit of success, or craving a more meaningful way to lead, this episode offers deep reflections, and a reminder that your story is your strategy.

In this episode, you’ll learn:
✔︎ What it means to leave the law and reimagine your identity
✔︎ The hidden side of innovation no one talks about
✔︎ How your “golden shadow” reveals your deepest value
✔︎ Why soul work is showing up in the future of law
✔︎ What to do when ego wants control but your soul wants freedom

🎧 Listen in and ask yourself: What part of your story have you left behind and what might happen if you picked it back up?
