🎧 𝗡𝗘𝗪 𝗣𝗼𝗱𝗰𝗮𝘀𝘁: 𝗧𝗵𝗲 ‘𝗺𝗼𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗵𝗼𝗼𝗱 𝗽𝗲𝗻𝗮𝗹𝘁𝘆’ 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗹𝗲𝗴𝗮𝗹 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗳𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻

The latest Today’s Wills and Probate Podcast turns its attention to one of the profession’s most persistent, and least openly discussed, challenges: the impact of maternity leave on women’s careers in law.

While the legal sector is not alone in perpetuating the motherhood penalty, the measurable career disadvantage experienced by women after having children, the podcast explores the unique pressure the legal sector presents around billable hours, PQE structures and the absence of traditional line management which compound the issue.

Returning mothers must “claw back” work, visibility and confidence say Sara Lyons and Hannah Bradshaw, former employment lawyers and co‑founders of Blue Sky; both of whom have personally experienced the issue and who now coach hundreds of female lawyers going through similar experiences.

🌟 𝗦𝗽𝗲𝗮𝗸𝗲𝗿 𝗦𝗽𝗼𝘁𝗹𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁: 𝗦𝗰𝗼𝘁𝘁 𝗪𝗮𝗹𝗸𝗲𝗿, 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝘀𝘂𝗹𝘁𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝗦𝗼𝗹𝗶𝗰𝗶𝘁𝗼𝗿, 𝗥𝗶𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗿𝗱 𝗡𝗲𝗹𝘀𝗼𝗻 𝗟𝗟𝗣

We’re thrilled to welcome 𝗦𝗰𝗼𝘁𝘁 𝗪𝗮𝗹𝗸𝗲𝗿 to this year’s TWP Festival - a Solicitor, trainer, TEDx speaker and Visiting Lecturer at the University of Law, whose work is reshaping how the profession thinks about personality, communication and success.

Scott’s story is one many in the sector will recognise. An introvert once told he was “too quiet” for law, he has built a thriving career by leaning into the very traits others saw as weaknesses. Today, he champions the power of quiet leadership, deep listening and thoughtful communication, showing how these strengths can transform legal practice and client care.

Alongside delivering practical training in Wills, Probate, Tax, Trusts and Court of Protection, Scott also speaks widely on how introversion and extroversion shape the way we work. His TEDx talk, Why the World Needs Introverted Lawyers, has been described as “thought‑provoking” and “a triumph” — setting out a compelling case for a more inclusive, human‑centred profession.

🎤 𝗦𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻: 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗣𝗼𝘄𝗲𝗿 𝗼𝗳 𝗣𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗶𝗻 𝗟𝗮𝘄: 𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗿𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗲𝘅𝘁𝗿𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗻𝘀𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺𝘀 𝗹𝗲𝗴𝗮𝗹 𝗽𝗿𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗰𝗲, 𝘁𝗲𝗮𝗺𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗰𝗹𝗶𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗰𝗮𝗿𝗲

The legal world often celebrates the loudest voices - but what if the quieter ones hold untapped strengths?

In this session, Scott explores how personality awareness can reduce conflict, strengthen teams, improve client relationships and create a more sustainable profession. He’ll also share how being an introvert, a Highly Sensitive Person (HSP) and someone who once struggled with shyness has shaped - and strengthened - his own legal journey.

Whether you’re an introvert, extrovert or somewhere in between, you’ll leave with practical tools to understand colleagues, adapt to clients and unlock the full potential of your team.
