Clare shares how her LLM in International Human Rights, experience in big law, and Ninth Circuit clerkship, while all incredible opportunities, actually made getting a state-level public defender job quite difficult! She also discusses how she managed burnout when she eventually did become a public defender, and how starting a family played a role in her career trajectory, as well. We thoroughly enjoyed learning from Clare (you will hear a lot of laughter!), and we hope you will, too.

Of course, we also got to hear all about Stacy's wonderful podcast, The Legal Department, where she aims to deliver the bottom line of what busy in-house attorneys need to know to level up their careers. in house counsel, the legal department podcast false full 72 5 169f205e-e8cb-4165-83b5-32c05a902964 Let's Get Personal with Jason Burch, Legal Director of US Regulatory at Uber Jason Burch is the Legal Director of US Regulatory at Uber, where he has worked for over six years.

Rebecca Petrilli graduated from Wittenberg University with a BA in English and Art History, then received her JD from Case Western Reserve University School of Law. She is a first-generation lawyer and one of very few people in her extended family to receive a bachelor's degree. She's worked for Themis for six years and, before sitting for the bar exam, was a Themis Rep in law school (all three years). She used Themis for the MPRE and the bar exam, passing both on the first try. She's passionate about helping students pass the bar with as much ease as possible. She enjoys reading, gardening, and spending time in nature.

Taylor Williams graduated from the University of Wisconsin-Madison in 2015 with a double major in psychology and legal studies and a certificate in criminal justice. In college, she worked in two psychology labs - one studying psychopaths in prison and the other working at Mendota Mental Health Institute, which is the inpatient hospital where people who successfully pled insanity are treated. She earned her JD from Georgia State College of Law in Atlanta in 2019 and was planning to continue working in family law, but everything changed after she failed the Georgia bar and her boss cut her salary by roughly 30% with no warning. When she switched to Themis to prepare for the UBE, her score went up 26 points, and she passed in every UBE jurisdiction. She attributes her success on the bar exam to Themis's MBE performance data and director support. At the time we recorded this episode, Taylor had worked for Themis for over 3 years as a Sales Director. She has since moved to a new role as an attorney recruiter with Skywater Search Partners. We wish Taylor all the best in this new role!

Rebecca Petrilli graduated from Wittenberg University with a BA in English and Art History, then received her JD from Case Western Reserve University School of Law. She is a first-generation lawyer and one of very few people in her extended family to receive a bachelor's degree. She's worked for Themis for six years and, before sitting for the bar exam, was a Themis Rep in law school (all three years). She used Themis for the MPRE and the bar exam, passing both on the first try. She's passionate about helping students pass the bar with as much ease as possible. She enjoys reading, gardening, and spending time in nature.

Taylor Williams graduated from the University of Wisconsin-Madison in 2015 with a double major in psychology and legal studies and a certificate in criminal justice. In college, she worked in two psychology labs - one studying psychopaths in prison and the other working at Mendota Mental Health Institute, which is the inpatient hospital where people who successfully pled insanity are treated. She earned her JD from Georgia State College of Law in Atlanta in 2019 and was planning to continue working in family law, but everything changed after she failed the Georgia bar and her boss cut her salary by roughly 30% with no warning. When she switched to Themis to prepare for the UBE, her score went up 26 points, and she passed in every UBE jurisdiction. She attributes her success on the bar exam to Themis's MBE performance data and director support. At the time we recorded this episode, Taylor had worked for Themis for over 3 years as a Sales Director. She has since moved to a new role as an attorney recruiter with Skywater Search Partners. We wish Taylor all the best in this new role!

What were the Top 5 Lessons we've learned? See below:

1️⃣ "Nobody's life is perfect." - LinkedIn profiles and resumes tell a story but they don't tell the whole story - we all have successes, failures, setbacks, and personal problems that impact the decisions we make about our careers.
2️⃣ "There is no yellow brick road." - Your first job might not be your dream job. Your dream job may be different than what you imagined in law school. 
3️⃣ "Embrace change." - It's okay to switch jobs. It's okay to pursue a new area of the law long after you graduate from law school. You don't need decades of experience to be able to try something new. 
4️⃣ "You shouldn't do it alone." - Mentoring, networking, and friendships make all the difference in finding new opportunities, dealing with difficult work environments, and feeling connected to a professional community.
5️⃣ "What does success mean to you?" - Our favorite question on Personal Jurisdiction! This quote from Anna Quindlen sums it up perfectly: "I am successful on my own terms. Because if your success is not on your own terms, if it looks good to the world but it does not feel good in your heart, it is not success at all."

During this series, we're featuring students from law schools around the country who have participated in a variety law school clinics.  Over the past two seasons of the show, many of our guests have talked about the impact that clinic work has had on their career trajectories and work experience. So, we've decided to chat with students who are in the thick of a clinic experience and hear more about advice they have for law students. Whether you're thinking about doing a clinic in law school, learning more about what law school clinics do, or hearing from students who have lots of wisdom to share, this series is for you! 

In this week's episode, we talk to Derick Wallace who just graduated from The George Washington University Law School in Washington, D.C. During law school Derick participated in the Small Business & Community Economic Development Clinic and was the President of the Black Law Students Association (BLSA).

In this week's episode, the fifth and final episode in this series, Jonah speaks with Doron Gold, a psychotherapist and former practicing lawyer (primarily in the area of family law) from Toronto, Canada. Doron works primarily with lawyers, law students, and judges as well as other professionals. His personal experience working in the legal profession, coupled with his many years of experiences working with lawyers in distress at the Ontario Lawyers' Assistance Program (OLAP) give him a unique and valuable perspective on the challenges faced by these individuals. In addition to treating lawyers, Doron presents regularly on issues related to mental health for lawyers. He is a graduate of York University and York University’s Osgoode Hall Law School and the University of Windsor from which he holds a Masters of Social Work. You can learn more about him and his work on Twitter @DoronJGold. 

In the episode, Jonah and Doran discuss Doron's personal path from lawyer to therapist, the mental health challenges that lawyers often face, ways that lawyers can and should find help, why perfectionism is so common in legal professionals (and the challenges resulting from this perfectionism), the importance of thinking about "how you feel as opposed to how should you feel," learning about yourself and the real (as opposed to perceived) expectations of those around you, the power of therapy when you find the right person to talk to, techniques for finding the right person to talk to, the difference between feedback and criticism, the benefit of "finding your people" and building community, the value of showing kindness when you see a meaningful change in a friend or colleague, and more.

]]> A Conversation with Professor Heidi Brown (Mental Health Awareness Month Episode) Jonah Perlin, Heidi Brown 00:54:02 This month, May 2022, Personal Jurisdiction and the How I Lawyer Podcast are teaming up to feature five interviews on the important topic of mental health in the legal profession. In the first episode of our series, #HowILawyer Host Jonah Perlin speaks with Professor Heidi Brown who is the Director of the Legal Writing Program at Brooklyn Law School. Having grappled with extreme performance anxiety as a law student, attorney, and new law professor, Heidi ultimately untangled her fears, and embraced authenticity as a powerful asset in teaching and practicing law. She is the author of two fantastic books on the subject, The Introverted Lawyer: A Seven-Step Journey Toward Authentically Empowered Advocacy, and Untangling Fear in Lawyering: A Four-Step Journey Toward Powerful Advocacy. Professor Brown’s brand new book, The Flourishing Lawyer, analogizes law students and lawyers to athletes and performers & offers a fresh lens through which to view the palpable challenge of enriching and safeguarding well-being in the legal profession—an approach that (1) champions individual and collective strengths, rather than stigmatizing purported weaknesses, and (2) redefines “character and fitness to practice law” as attributes we can, and must, actively and continuously cultivate, as individuals and legal communities. Professor Brown discuss her path in the law and her decision to study topics related to mental health and success in the legal profession, staying true to yourself as a lawyer, the difference between introversion and social anxiety, techniques from athletes and performers that can be applied to a career in the law, and so much more.
