The Landscape for Lawyers Has Changed Over the Past Few Years
You’re a driven, hard-working professional who is great at what you do. You put in the hours for your clients, and you’re committed to helping them overcome their challenges – no matter what it takes.
But over the past few years, things have shifted with your day-to-day work. As the world has changed, it has forced us all out of routine, and helped us see our work and family life from a new vantage point. It may have even made you question whether this career is right for you, or if a healthy, balanced lifestyle is more important?
You’ve probably gone from working 10–12-hour days in a stuffy office… to finally having time to spend with your family and be present in their day-to-day lives! You can skip the commute, choose your own hours, and experience a new type of freedom…
Did we mention membership is free?
But... Working From Home Doesn’t Come Without Its Challenges
Have you faced any of these struggles over the past couple of years?
- Does the lack of structure in your day leave you feeling unproductive? But you’re feeling unmotivated to build a strong routine…
- Do you crave a sense of community around you while you work? And you miss connecting with colleagues in the office…
- Do you want to collaborate with peers and ask for advice and insight? But you don’t know who to turn to remotely…
- Does the line between home-time and work-time feel blurry? And you struggle to switch off at night…
- Do you feel stressed and overworked without a support system around you? And you’re desperate for better balance and time to prioritize yourself…
- Have you read all the habit-forming books, tried virtual networking events, and scheduled in deep-work? But you struggle to follow through and get lasting results…
If you answered “YES” to the above, you’re not alone. But what if there were a way to enjoy the benefits and freedom of remote work… without losing the structure, habits, and community you used to enjoy most?
