How do you balance two high-pressure careers—on the field and in the courtroom?

In this episode of The Inner Circle, Gil Cohen sits down with Clete Blakeman, a professional football referee with nearly two decades at the highest level and a practicing attorney with over 30 years of experience. From officiating the biggest games in football to managing a full legal career, Clete shares how he built a life that thrives in two completely different worlds.

You'll hear how his journey started as a Nebraska quarterback, transitioned into law, and unexpectedly led to officiating major professional games. Clete breaks down what it's like to make split-second decisions in front of millions, how preparation and communication drive success, and why his legal background gives him an edge on the field.

If you've ever wondered what it takes to operate at an elite level in two demanding professions, this episode delivers.
