The Legal Toolkit : Saying “NonLawyer” I...

LEGAL TALK NETWORK
About this episode

Lawyers have a lot of annoying habits, but Jared’s figured out the worst—referring to their fellow humans as “nonlawyers.” Not only is it demeaning to, well, everyone, but it can also be the source of an unhealthy culture between lawyers and their legal staff. Be honest now . . . have you fallen into this pattern? Don’t worry! Jared has some great tips for how not to be an ass and, instead, promote office unity! (2:05)

Next up, Jared chats with Toya Gavin of Legally Bold about her journey from lawyer to consultant and how she helps struggling lawyers reassess their careers and find true fulfillment. (6:56)

And, finally, Jared puts a spin on the Stick or Quit quiz from Toya’s own site for this edition of the Rump Roast! (24:09)

Toya Gavin, Esq. is an attorney, legal consultant and founder of Legally Bold, an online coaching and consulting agency where she liberates lawyers from unfulfilling work so that they can claim the lives and careers they really want.
