Episode Notes
Welcome back - I'm still in the hot seat being interviewed by my awesome sister, Kerri. I can’t think of a better person as Kerri has been my ride or die and my right hand woman. She’s seen it all and supported me through thick and thin! Kerri interviews me about my own journey into law and how I made big life and work changes in the legal world. This conversation is split into two parts because there was so much to unpack and I wanted to be totally open with you.....plus being in conversation with my sister is such a vibe #sisterchats! In Part 2 we cover:-
- Quitting Big Law;
- The initial travelling phase - intentional but flowy;
- Labels - who are we without them? Everything stripped away and meeting new ppl no longer as “Lauren the Lawyer”, “Lauren the fun friend” etc;
- Life changing experiences including a journey of love - love for myself and the world;
- Bali - the first seed is planted about my next chapter ;
