What Burnt Out Lawyers Need To Know (Recovering from Lawyer Burnout)

[@allroundabundance]

Great video and message! We left our law jobs a couple of years ago after being in constant burnout for years. Thanks for sharing :) :)

Love that!

I love Unlocking the Stress Cycle--a must read for all lawyers! But I have to say I love this video even more than that book ;)

I’m considering law. What are some pros and cons based on your personal experience.

[@aalegalfocus]

The big con (no pun intended) is that a significant number of law school graduates can't pass the bar exam, can't get full-time legal employment, and/or wind up in not so enjoyable jobs that pay less than 55k to start. It would really help to talk to as many young lawyers as you can, as well as people who graduated recently from the law schools you're interested in. Best wishes.

Hi Sarah, I'd like your email address, if possible, please. I am an extremely unhappy lawyer on the west coast and feel that I'm serving a life sentence by being an attorney. I'm not good at it. I commit malpractice mistakes often and have an ADHD diagnosis, which I resent. Being a lawyer is the worse part of who I am. It's ruining my life.

I hear you. You can email me at [e-mail]. Or if you want, you can download my free guide for lawyers, First Steps To Leaving The Law, at formerlawyer.com/first. (That adds you to my email list and you can just reply to any email-I read them all!)
