We help lawyers build a toolbox to lead a fulfilling life.

Comparison is the thief of joy....but we all do it.

In our first newsletter we share how we fall into the trap of chasing impact and the reframe we use to stop ourselves.

Are you chasing impact? - https://t.co/mvtqOPLPxY

The positive impact of good mentors can't be underestimated. Mentors are often pivotal for those who are designing a fulfilling life. They can help build connection, open doors to possibility and be a safe space to share your whole self.

[Jen Heemstra @jenheemstra]

Mentors, never underestimate the power of telling someone you mentor that they are on track to achieving their goals.

It may be obvious to you, but far less clear to the person who you mentor, and your words can have impact in building confidence and sense of belonging.

"Lawyers, caseworkers and judges need to create a community in which we can be vulnerable and can express the ways in which the work is impacting us every day."

OPINION: #Childwelfare workers must create space to experience the pain and joy of their work.

The challenge so many lawyers face. "Eventually, if things continue in the way they were going before the pandemic, my sense of self and my self-worth will melt away into my professional identify."

Your life is far more than your job.

"We are not designed to do big things alone; we are designed to do them with others." Great advice to address #burnout and #wellbeing from @krebs_cathy. @ABACCL and @ABALitigation

The most important thing I never learned in law school is that lawyering is about relationships, not just doctrine. Yes, you need to know and understand the law. But we transform lives - including our own - through the kinship we create with others.
