Dad LIVE 👶🏼🎙️🔴 Episode 5 with Peter Murphy | Father | Founder, Autocognition | 'Process, Presence & Parenting in the Age of AI'

Dad LIVE 👶🏼🎙️🔴 with Peter Murphy: 'Process, Presence & Parenting in the Age of AI'

💎 "A perfectly built system runs while you're not watching it. So does a bedtime routine, if you've built it right." – Peter Murphy

He gave his ten year old daughter an AirTag, a Nokia flip phone, and the keys to walk herself to school. That's the same builder's instinct Peter Murphy uses to run AI automation for businesses that big banks spend millions on. Ep. 5 of DadLIVE turns to a different kind of builder. Twenty years in financial services, then AutoCognition, launched last year, putting AI process automation within reach of small and mid market businesses.

We find out what happens when someone who builds systems for a living brings that instinct home, and what fatherhood looks like as AI rewrites how much time work actually takes.

Together, we explore:

🚶 He let his ten year old walk to school alone. The AirTag, the Nokia flip phone, and the first solo flight to Brisbane that followed

🤖 Why "more effort" was never the fix for the businesses he works with, and what actually was

⏰ Inside the morning routine that protects his focus, before the emails, before the noise, before anyone else is awake

🍽️ The one house rule that never breaks: 6:30pm, devices off, everyone at the table

👶 How fatherhood quietly redefined what "scaling the business" was ever for

🧠 The AI safety net he built for his daughter, and the loophole in her school laptop he never saw coming

🪑 The round table theory of family dinners, and why he still doesn't have one

⏳ Why the real goal was never fewer hours. It was making the right ones untouchable

If you're building a business and a family at the same time, this episode shows you they run on the same rules.

Dad LIVE 👶🏼🎙️🔴 Episode 4 with Jake Nolan | Father | Co-Founder, Woolcott St. | 'Fabric, Fatherhood & The First Few Years'

Dad LIVE 👶🏼🎙️🔴 with Jake Nolan: 'Fabric, Fatherhood & the First Few Years'

💎 "The biggest thing you can buy in life is time." – Jake Nolan

Following Tyler Greatrex's episode broadcasting from Perth, Episode 4 of DadLIVE brought me back home to Sydney for a legend I know well. Jake Nolan has made me more than a few suits, coats and shirts over the years.

For episode four of DadLIVE, I sat down with Jake Nolan, co-founder and personal bespoke tailor at Woolcott St, the Sydney-based tailoring business he built with business partner Michael Vlasos back in 2016. Jake dresses Sydney's busiest lawyers, accountants and elite professionals.

Together, we explore:

🛁 Working his 15-month-old daughter into a frenzy before bath time, and still not knowing how to wind her back down
👶 What his daughter would say if she could explain what dad does for work
⏳ Why success stopped being about the destination and became entirely about buying back time
🏙️ Living ten minutes from work versus further out, and the "double-edged sword" that comes with it
📍 The strangest place he's ever done a client fitting, Hyde Park, near the fountain
🧵 The two biggest wardrobe mistakes professionals make coming out of COVID
👔 Why he believes every business needs "Glow Up Fridays" instead of casual Fridays

This conversation is for every dad building something of his own who's realised the real deadline isn't the one on his calendar, it's getting home before bath time.

Law Live ⚖️ 🔴 Episode 60 with Ryan Murphy | Principal, McInnes Wilson Lawyers | Employment and industrial relations law expert | 'Boundaries, Bargaining & Bots'

Law Live ⚖️ with Ryan Murphy | Principal | McInnes Wilson Lawyers | Employment Lawyer | 'Boundaries, Bargaining & Bots'

💎 "I don't like someone else's urgency becoming my urgency when I can help it." - Ryan Murphy

In this episode of Law Live, Cullen Haynes sits down with Ryan Murphy, Principal at McInnes Wilson Lawyers and an accredited specialist in employment and industrial law. After more than twelve years in the profession, Ryan recently joined McInnes Wilson to build out their employment law offering in Sydney.

We explore:

Why Ryan moved from MinterEllison to build McInnes Wilson's first Sydney employment law team, and why acting for employers rather than employees lets him shape workplace culture, not just win disputes
His real-world take on the right to disconnect: why the six pm message isn't the problem, the conversation you didn't have earlier in the week is
The paper he's presenting at the Australian Labour Law Association National Conference on the collision between calls for a blanket right to work from home and an AI-disrupted workplace
The mentorship lesson that stuck: why the best mentors ask questions instead of giving answers
His advice for young lawyers starting out, "enthusiasm can make up for a lot of mistakes," and why showing genuine interest in your area of law is a superpower no one can teach you

This episode is a must-listen for any employer, in-house counsel or HR leader who wants a clear-eyed guide to navigating flexible work, after-hours boundaries and the workplace risks AI is about to reshape.

Law Live ⚖️ 🔴 Episode 59 with Annie Haggar | Cyber Lawyer | 'Cyber Security: Breach to Bankruptsy'

Law Live ⚖️ with Annie Haggar | Deputy Chief of Staff | Australian Government | 'Cyber Security: Breach to Bankruptsy'

💎 "Small businesses are going out of business left, right and centre because of the impact and the financial cost of a breach." - Annie Haggar

In this episode of Law Live, Cullen Haynes sits down with Annie Haggar, Founder and Principal of Cyber GC and a multi-award winning in-house lawyer. After more than 18 years working in and around technology law, Annie is now Chief of Staff at Aus Government.

We explore:

Why this episode is called "From Breach to Bankruptcy," and the MediSecure case that shows how fast a cyber breach can tip a business into insolvency
The surprising skill that's become her biggest asset as a cyber lawyer, storytelling, and why a good story changes behaviour faster than any compliance checklist
The most unusual client request of her career, being asked whether a firm could run simulated kidnappings of CEOs to stress-test a business, and the far more common question that followed about paying ransoms on a client's behalf
Why cybercriminals now operate like professional businesses, complete with customer service teams and "satisfied customer" references for ransom payments
Her take on AI and the legal profession: why it strips out the grunt work rather than replacing lawyers, and what that means for training the next generation

This episode is a must-listen for anyone who wants to understand why cybersecurity isn't just an IT problem, it's a business survival problem.

Dad LIVE 👶🏼🎙️🔴 Episode 3 with Tyler Greatrex | Proud Girl Dad | Associate, Clyde & Co. PERTH | 'The Great Treks of Fatherhood'

Dad LIVE 👶🏼🎙️🔴 with Tyler Greatrex: 'The Great Treks of Fatherhood'
💎 "Your child won't remember whether you handled every situation perfectly. They'll only care that you were present." – Tyler Greatrex

Following Chris Rapozo's episode streamed from Atlanta, TX last Friday, Episode 3 of DadLIVE brought me a legend broadcasting all the way from Perth, a man I first met face to face at last year's Law Society of WA Sundowner in October 2025.

For episode three of DadLIVE, I sat down with Tyler Greatrex, a commercial litigator at Clyde & Co in Perth. Tyler spent time in the 8th/12th Regiment, Royal Australian Artillery, before trading the battlefield for the courtroom, and by his own account, nothing has reshaped him quite like fatherhood has. Tyler describes himself as unapologetically a "girl dad," through and through.

Together, we explore:
👑 Why Tyler wore a full prince costume to his daughter's princess-themed first birthday
🧠 The mental load of parenting that hit him harder than the sleepless nights ever did
🏥 The 1am hospital dash for hand, foot and mouth disease, and what showing up without having the answers actually looks like
🪖 How army-honed discipline and routine met a toddler, and lost
🐴 The nightly "horse, horse" ride he never turns down, no matter how tired he is
🛏️ The bedtime cuddle ritual that's quietly built the strongest bond he has with his daughter
⚖️ Why success still matters to Tyler, but the reason behind chasing it has changed completely

This conversation is for every working dad trying to balance ambition with family, and every man who's realised that success only matters if it translates into presence at home.

Law Live ⚖️ 🔴 Episode 58 with Therese Aroyan | Family Lawyer | Product Owner, SmokeBall | 'Focus on Outcomes, Not Admin'

Law Live ⚖️ with Therese Aroyan | Family Lawyer | Product Owner | SmokeBall Family Property | 'Focus on Outcomes, Not Admin'

💎 "Let's work smarter and not harder." — Therese Aroyan

In this episode of Law Live, Cullen Haynes sits down with Therese Aroyan, Product Manager at Smokeball and Accredited Specialist in Family Law. After eleven years practising family law, including as a Deputy Associate at the Federal Magistrates Court of Australia and representing adults and children across NSW in family and care and protection matters, Therese moved into legal tech in 2019 as a subject matter expert and Product Owner at Legal Aid NSW, and now leads Family Property, a Smokeball product built specifically for family lawyers.

We explore:

How Therese went from courtroom advocate to building the software family lawyers actually use, and why she calls her balance sheet tool "Excel on steroids"
The surprising skill she didn't expect to need as a lawyer, creativity, and how it became one of her biggest assets with clients
The most unusual client request of her career, a teenager who wanted court consent to marry his pregnant girlfriend, and the twist that changed everything
The two mentors who pulled her through a brutal first two years as a junior lawyer, and why she still calls one of them "my Yoda"
Why she believes legal tech isn't about replacing lawyers, it's about giving them back the time

This episode is a must-listen for anyone who wants to see how legal tech can strip away the admin burden in family law and put the focus back on the client.

Dad LIVE 👶🏼🎙️🔴 Episode 2 with Chris Rapozo | Husband | Father | Runner | Storyteller | 'The Long Game of Fatherhood'

Dad LIVE 👶🏼🎙️🔴 with Chris Rapozo: 'The Long Game of Fatherhood'

💎 "Dads matter more than society wants us to believe." – Chris Rapozo

Following on from the legendary Michael Seton's debut episode a couple of weeks ago, episode two of DadLIVE brought on someone I've followed and learned from for years on LinkedIn. A man who's built his life around one order of priorities, and lives it.

For episode two of DadLIVE, I sat down with Chris Rapozo, a man who describes himself in exact order as husband, father, runner, storyteller, broadcasting live from Atlanta. Chris moved from Germany to the United States at 22 with nothing but hope and a six-month plan that turned into 21 years, and today he lives out that order every single day.

Together, we explore:
😳 What surprised him most about fatherhood that no one warned him about: "how truly selfish we are"
🌙 The 2am moment every exhausted parent has had but rarely admits to out loud
🎓 Why he did his university coursework at 4:30am instead of watching Netflix, and what that discipline taught him about hard seasons
🧼 The germs advice that'll make second-time parents laugh and first-time parents relax
🏃 The double stroller runs that gave his kids fresh air and his wife a rare hour to herself
💼 Why he's "on" from the moment he steps off the plane, because you never know who's watching
❤️ "Work-life integration," not work-life balance, the phrase his wife coined
🎯 The one thing he hopes his kids remember about him
🇩🇪🇺🇸 Growing up in Germany, moving to America at 22

This conversation is for every working dad trying to balance ambition with family, and every man who's realised that success only matters if it translates into presence at home.

Law Live ⚖️ 🔴 Episode 57 with Shauna Mainprize | Founder | Lawyer | Valice | 'The Best Back Themselves'

Law Live ⚖️ with Shauna Mainprize | Founder of Valice Conveyancing | 'The Best Back Themselves'

💎 "It's definitely the best thing to do to back yourself and just do it." — Shauna Mainprize

In this episode of Law Live, Cullen Haynes sits down with Shauna Mainprize, founder of Valice Conveyancing. After close to a decade in the legal profession, including roles at top tier firms McCullough Robertson and Gilbert + Tobin, Shauna backed herself and launched Valice last year to bring top tier conveyancing experience to a boutique, client focused practice.

We explore:

Shauna's path from banking and finance law into building her own conveyancing practice, and why she backed herself to do it
How a lean, tech forward business model lets Valice deliver top tier experience at a boutique price point
The shift to fully electronic conveyancing through PEXA and e-signatures, and how COVID accelerated it
Why trusting your gut is Shauna's number one lesson for junior lawyers, and the mentor who taught her to back herself
Her take on the billable hour culture in law firms, and what needs to change to prevent burnout in junior lawyers

This episode is a must-listen for anyone who wants to see what happens when someone who was the best at what they did decides to back themselves and build something better.

LIVE 🔴 with Cullen Haynes Episode 2 with Josh Jaramillo | Senior Lending Specialist | Legal Home Loans | 'The $31,000 Mistake Most Lawyers Make '

LIVE 🔴 with Josh Jaramillo | Senior Lending Specialist | Legal Home Loans | 'The $31,000 Mistake Most Lawyers Make'

💎 "We're helping our clients self-actualize every day." — Josh Jaramillo

Welcome back to LIVE with Cullen Haynes, Episode 2.

In this episode, host Cullen Haynes is joined by Josh Jaramillo, one of the leading brokers on the Legal Home Loans team, to break down what's actually happening in lending right now for lawyers, from first home buyers to managing partners.

From rising interest rates and shrinking borrowing capacity to lender's mortgage insurance and the loyalty tax, this episode covers:

📉 Why refinances have taken over the conversation amid RBA rate rises

🧮 The hidden "stretch rate" banks use, and why your borrowing power can shrink even when nothing's changed on your end

🛡 Lender's mortgage insurance explained, and why lawyers with an Australian practising certificate can waive it with just a 10% deposit

⚖️ Chambers finance for barristers, and how one client secured approval in a week and a half when the market average was three months

🤝 Why partners get treated as self-employed by the banks, and how a CFO or managing partner letter can fix that

💰 The "loyalty tax" costing loyal bank customers thousands, and why the squeaky wheel gets the discount

🥇 What Platinum broker accreditation actually means, and how it can save you weeks on your application

Josh also breaks down the real cost of a lawyer chasing the wrong rate: if your billable hour is $1,000 and a bank application drags out over 31 hours of your time, that's $31,000 of your own hours on the table. This episode is about why the smart ones say no to that trade.

Whether you're climbing the ranks or leading the firm, this is essential listening for any legal professional ready to take control of their finances.

Ledger Legends 🧮 Episode 3 with Conor Keenan | Founder, NIOSMO & My Money Medic | 'Financially Fit & Free'

Ledger Legends 🧮 with Conor Keenan | Founder, NIOSMO & My Money Medic | 'Financially Fit & Free'

"You need that initial interaction to understand someone's financial health. It's not something that a bot can ever do for you." — Conor Keenan

In this episode of Ledger Legends, I sit down with my friend Conor Keenan, a Chartered Accountant with over 25 years in finance across roles at Ernst & Young Dublin, and up through senior finance positions to CFO, now serving as Chief Financial Health Officer at Niosmo Group, home of My Money Medic. Conor makes the case that financial health isn't just a balance sheet, it's happiness, lifestyle, and physical wellbeing, all interconnected.

We dive into:

💰 Why "financial health" means far more than the number in your bank account
🏠 The real story behind the mortgage belt and why so many Australians are financially stretched right now
🤖 Why AI won't replace chartered accountants, but will reshape the profession from the ground up
🙏 The mentors who shaped him, from his father's resilience to his uncle's humility
🏃‍♂️ Life outside the ledger: the 5am club, training in Sydney's east, and family

Whether you're in finance, law, or just want a clearer picture of your own financial health, this episode will leave you thinking differently.

Dad LIVE 👶🏼🎙️🔴 Episode 1 with Michael Seton | Solicitor Director, Seton Family Lawyers | 'Success at Work, Presence at Home & The Weight of Modern Fatherhood'

Dad LIVE 👶🏼🎙️🔴 with Michael Seton: 'Success at Work, Presence at Home & The Weight of Modern Fatherhood'

💎 "Careers can wait. Childhoods can't." – Michael Seton

When my wife and I left the hospital with our first child three years ago, I remember turning to her and asking if they were really going to let us take this baby home when we had no idea what we were doing. Since then, some of the best guidance I've had hasn't come from a book. It's come from other fathers, trading the small, hard-won lessons of trying to build a career and still be fully present at home. I couldn't find a space built for professional dads and non-primary caregivers to have that conversation properly, so I decided to create one. That's DadLIVE.

For our very first episode of DadLIVE, I sat down with Michael Seton, Principal Founder and Solicitor at Seton Family Lawyers, dad of three, coach of multiple kids' sports teams, and a man ten years into what he calls "chasing excellence" since his eldest was born in 2016.

Together, we explore:

👶 The 4am ritual that protects Michael's presence before the chaos of the day begins

🐔 Why six free-range chickens showed up for a job that required zero chickens (and what it taught him about distraction)

🏡 The difference between providing for your kids and actually being present for them

❤️ The four-word habit that changed how he shows up for his wife Kayla: "How can I help?"

⚖️ Redefining success: from courtroom wins to hearing your kids say they're proud of you

🌅 The "season mentality" that got him and Kayla through the overwhelming early years

🧠 The two people whose opinion he says actually matters: the seven-year-old version of yourself, and the seventy-year-old version of yourself

🎯 What he hopes his kids remember about the kind of dad he was, in three words

This conversation is for every working dad trying to balance ambition with family, and every man who's realised that success only matters if it translates into presence at home.

Law Live ⚖️ 🔴 Episode 54 with Olia Pelayo | Founder, Children In FOCUS | 'There Is Always Light at the End of the Tunnel'

Law Live ⚖️ with Olia Pelayo | Founder, Children In FOCUS | 'There Is Always Light at the End of the Tunnel'

💎 “There Is Light at the End of the Tunnel” — Olia Pelayo

In this heartfelt and eye-opening episode of LawLive, Cullen Haynes sits down with Olia Pelayo, founder of Children in Focus—a supervised contact service helping families through the raw, often painful realities of high-conflict separations and domestic violence.

A former lawyer turned child-protection champion, Olia shares how a courtroom moment changed the trajectory of her life and inspired her to bridge a critical gap in Australia's family law ecosystem. What began as a side hustle in her legal robes has grown into a full-time mission: ensuring children can safely see their parents—within just one week of referral.

We explore:

What supervised contact services really are—and why they matter
The hidden emotional toll of the work, and how Olia resets through sailing and fencing
Why neutrality is essential—and misunderstood
The misconceptions around child supervision services (they're not babysitters)
How lawyers and family services can better collaborate
And why, even in the darkest moments of family breakdown, there’s always hope 🌈

This is a must-listen for anyone working in or adjacent to family law—or simply anyone who cares about protecting vulnerable children during life’s most difficult transitions.

🎧 Tune in to hear why Olia believes “There’s always light at the end of the tunnel.”

Law Live ⚖️ with Claire Styles, Founder | C Legal & Co. | Design Your Life | 'Living Your Best Legal Life'

💎 “I didn’t thrive — I barely survived, Cullen. I was a baby lawyer in a very white male-dominated firm.” — Claire Styles

In Episode 52, I sit down with one of the boldest voices in the estate planning game — lawyer, founder, fashionista, and podcast host Claire Styles, as we talk all things legacy: personal, professional, and legal.

👉 From being ghosted by senior partners to becoming a Women in Law award-winner, Claire shares the unfiltered truth of what it really takes to survive — and thrive — in a traditional, male-dominated legal system.

We also dive into:

💔 Life after divorce and why she’s baring it all in her new podcast Life After the Big D
💼 Why being a sole practitioner can be isolating — and how she’s rewriting the rules
💅 How fashion fuels confidence (and yes, OOTDs are good for your mental health)
🧠 Why lawyers must stop pretending everything's fine — and start talking about mental health
📜 The truth about wills: why you need one yesterday (and how they still get contested)
✨ The best career advice she’d give her 20-year-old self: “Trust your intuition — it’s always right.”

And in true LawLive fashion, we wrap with legacy: how Claire wants to be remembered — and what she wants every young lawyer to hear before they burn out.

Law Live ⚖️ with Paul O'Halloran, Partner | Head of Office | Employment Law Specialist | Dentons | 'Negative Employees, Narcissistic Compassion, Flying Monkeys & Haunted Workplaces'

💎 “Some people have a problem for every solution — those people should be lawfully removed.” — Paul O’Halloran

In this special Tuesday edition of LawLive Ep.51, Cullen Haynes is joined by Paul O’Halloran, Partner at Dentons, employment law specialist, and Head of Office in Melbourne. A former pilot turned legal powerhouse, Paul brings 16 years of experience and a refreshing candour to the conversation.

This episode dives headfirst into the dark side of the workplace:

How to lawfully remove toxic employees (with a 93% success rate)
What is narcissistic compassion — and how do you spot it?
The role of flying monkeys (yes, from The Wizard of Oz) in office politics
How to exorcise the negative energy of a haunted home office
And why some workplaces are being sabotaged from the inside — one “friendly” colleague at a time

Paul also shares a jaw-dropping sliding doors moment involving a near-death plane crash, the power of handwritten letters (from actual presidents and celebrities), and why working from home full-time might be shrinking your world.

If you’ve ever worked with a colleague who drained your energy, spread whispers, or left meetings worse than when they started — this episode will give you clarity, language, and even a strategy to deal with it.

Law Live ⚖️ 🔴 Episode 50 with Jessica Cunning, General Counsel | Titles Queensland | Company Secretary | Speaker | MAICD | '2025: The Year of Change'

💎 “Be proud of yourself for the silent battles you’ve fought, the times you’ve humbled yourself or wiped away your tears, or the times that you picked yourself up, dusted yourself off and chose not to give up. Celebrate your strength this year, whatever that looked like.” — Jessica Cunning

In this milestone 50th episode of LawLive, I sit down with the brilliant and big-hearted Jessica Cunning, General Counsel and Company Secretary at Titles Queensland. With over 15 years of legal experience across property, construction, and commercial law, Jess brings deep insight, warmth, and vulnerability to a conversation that goes far beyond contracts and compliance.

We talk candidly about:

- What it really means to be an advocate—at work and in life

- The hidden mental toll of being “on” all the time in legal roles

- How lawyers can lead with kindness while still delivering commercial outcomes

- Why being your full self at work is both powerful and necessary

- The importance of themes over resolutions when planning a purposeful year

Jess also opens up about her passion for diversity and inclusion, and how her lived experience drives her advocacy for those who are marginalised or vulnerable in our communities.

This episode is a heartfelt reminder that behind every title is a person—and that the courage to keep going, with kindness and intention, is worth celebrating.

Law Live ⚖️ with Christian van den Bosch, Director | CvdB Consulting | 'The Year of Qualitative Growth'

💎 "Most firms chase growth by getting bigger. I help them grow by getting better."

In this powerful episode of Law Live, I sit down with the one and only Christian van den Bosch—leadership consultant, firm founder, and international growth strategist—to unpack what 2025 demands: qualitative growth over raw scale.

Christian operates across Australia and the Netherlands, working with law firms and professional services to refine strategy, enhance leadership, and turn vision into execution. We explore how qualitative growth—clearer processes, stronger leadership, and intentional planning—not only drives better internal culture, but ironically, fuels better quantitative growth too.

We go live across LinkedIn, YouTube, and Facebook, inviting your questions in real time as we discuss:

Why December is Christian’s favourite month for self-reflection and strategy
How to shift from “busyness” to intentional business building
The hidden challenges of scaling from 5 to 10 people
Why redefining productivity can change everything in your firm

Whether you're running a boutique law firm or leading a high-performing team, this episode is your call to slow down, recalibrate, and grow on purpose.

🎧 Tap in. Take notes. And start thinking long-term.

More about our special guest: -

I'm a Family Dispute Resolution Practitioner and Nationally Accredited Mediator. The founder of The Upspring - a mediation service helping separating parents make arrangements so they can get on with life. A builder of businesses, teams and philanthropic partnerships. And a straight-talking conflict resolution and negotiation coach.

I mediate separating parents who need to come together to make tough decisions about what to do for their children. Separating requires making life-changing decisions during high stress. My work reduces the stress of mediating and prepares both parties with skills and strategies to approach resolution confidently and effectively to ensure the best possible outcomes for their children.

I'm a mediator on a mission: I advocate for everyone to use mediation to its greatest potential. I know that with skilled guidance and the right support and resources, you can come out the other side of a conflict with your integrity intact and the energy and new skills to build your capacity for conflict in the future. On LinkedIn, I talk about using mediation, conflict resolution and negotiation skills in everyday life.

I'm also here for a conversation and love meeting people. Please get in touch with me through LinkedIn or, even better, book a call on my website: theupspring.com.au

Law Live ⚖️ with Stefanie Costi | Lawyer, Journalist, Advocate

💎 "I am on a mission to ensure that no other lawyer has to suffer in silence."

You won't want to miss this special Bonus episode with powerhouse Stefanie Costi whose article with Jerome Doraisamy in the Lawyers Weekly on her harrowing experience with workplace bullying went viral with over 10,000 engagements and 100,000's of views. Stefanie also talks about resilience, backing yourself and calling out bullying when you see it and much much more...

More about our special guest in her own words: -

Once upon a time there was a bright young lawyer.

She was bullied at work. It ruined her confidence. It messed with her bodily functions. It left her in a constant state of hypervigilance. But, most of all, it broke her spirit and made her want to turn her back on the law.

Eventually, that lawyer summoned the courage to leave that toxic environment and found a new job.

However, her unresolved pain followed her, seeping into her new workplace.

That lawyer was me.

And, now I am on a mission to ensure that no other lawyer has to suffer in silence.

Today, in Lawyers Weekly, I wrote about what workplace PTSD looks like in the law and what we can do about it.

You can read the article here:

https://lnkd.in/g8xaRzrS

In recent weeks, I've had conversations with numerous lawyers and support staff and discovered that my experience is not unique. Emma, whose story I shared, is just one example.

By speaking up and not shutting up about bullying and workplace PTSD in the law, I want to change the way the legal profession operates.

Have you ever suffered from workplace PTSD?

♻ Repost this. My goal isn't to gain followers, money, or accolades; it's solely about helping people survive in the law and effecting long-overdue change in workplaces globally.

More about our special guest in her own words: -

I’m a ‘people person’. I love working with and helping business owners work towards their goals, and while it sounds cliché, make a sustainable difference in their life. I also love business.

In my past life I was a commercial lawyer. I worked with many business owners who had fallen out of love with their businesses. They wanted to change things, reignite the sense of excitement and passion and make their business more rewarding – but they were overwhelmed, overworked, uninspired and exhausted. I saw an opportunity.

After realising I wanted to do more than practice law I moved into business development and discovered my passion. While I was able to achieve great outcomes for my firm, I knew I needed more to fill my cup and saw an opportunity – to create a dedicated business development consultancy focussed on helping business owners develop a more rewarding business through strategic planning for the future, team building, delegation and succession planning – and maestro was born.
