On today’s episode I am in Conversation with Noèmi Muya. My highlight was hearing about how she had a pleasurable experience during her articles and I believe it is so important to highlight when one has a good experience during articles because the articles experience truly has a bad reputation of being a toxic period in most people’s career stories. Her face also really lit up as she spoke about the woman who mentored her during articles and that inspired her to also pay it forward by mentoring the next generation of legal practitioners.
