Mental Strength During Hard Times

Welcome to Legaltini! 

In this episode I share how I'm preparing for this semester even though I don't really feel rested or prepared. It's okay to jump before you feel ready and figure it out as you go along. Life comes at you fast sometimes, and you can't always have everything figured out before you start (which is my worst nightmare!!). I'm leaning into that and sharing how adjusting my perspective has helped me. In this episode I cover:

1. Organizing my tools
2. Planning out my study schedule
3. Prioritizing self-care and relationships
4. Shifting my perspective

This week's episode is all about how to turn challenges into opportunities to grow your mental strength.

Welcome back to Legaltini! 

This is the third and final podcast in my series on my summer internship at a Big Law firm. In the first two episodes I discussed what big law even is, what to do to land a summer associate position at a Big Law firm, and some common pitfalls to avoid. In this week's episode, I share what things to do once you finally land a summer internship (at a big or small firm). There are two things firms are looking for and one thing they are absolutely NOT looking for. I also share my tips for time management and getting the work done once you get started!

Welcome back to Legaltini! 

This is the second part of a now three-part series on Big Law and my experience so far. (Episode three will be about how to succeed once you get the job!) In this episode I share seven things to think about and to do if you want to land a summer associate position at a Big Law firm. This is what worked for me and based on what I have heard from attorneys making hiring decisions at different firms. Obviously every firm takes a unique approach, but I hope these tips help you at least avoid some common pitfalls.

Welcome back to Legaltini! 

This week's episode focuses on the frenzy around finals and challenging seasons of life, and how to stay grounded with big picture perspective. Turns out, taking care of your brain and mental health doesn't require expensive trips to the beach (although I wouldn't be that mad about one of those!). But it does require prioritizing and making space for yourself. Listen in for a lil more about that!

Welcome back to Legaltini! 

In this week's episode we chat about the sophmore slump of the second semester! I don't know about you, but this one has been dragging on and I am tired (all the time!). But it doesn't have to stay that way - we have a powerful tool within our reach that can re-motivate and get us back on track! It's called a WHY statement! 

I also talk through several observations I have made about life ~lately~ and how those don't need to be "good" or "bad" observations, they are just a realistic inventory about where I'm at and what next steps I can take to keep moving towards my goals.
