Lawyers and Career Change: How I Hope to Help Through This Blog
When I began the slow process of career change about a year ago, I didn’t think that I had anything useful to say to lawyers contemplating career change. For the most part, I felt disillusioned, frustrated and alone. Some days, I still feel that way, especially since I have not completely identified my next steps. But, after a year of significant change in my life, including a new marriage and a new transitional job, I hope that my personal experiences will help me to produce content that will both help and inspire other lawyers who are contemplating or in the midst of a career change.
There are numerous resources out there for lawyers frustrated with their current career paths. Indeed, it sometimes seems like an entire industry of career coaches, counselors, and career-focused authors exist to help lawyers exit the practice of law. I hold no expectation for adding myself to their ranks, at least professionally. Instead, I hope to simply add to the conversation regarding the other career opportunities available to lawyers, and to meet other lawyers who have traveled the path I am now taking. Along the way, I hope to discover and clarify my own path and to gain confidence in my choices.
