Burnout to Recovery Experience: Lawyer Burnout

Episode 3 of Career Burnout: A Different Kind of Gap Year brings you a story from an unlikely profession, the legal profession. It’s a story that ran a lot of parallels to my own. It’s Sarah’s story of her mental health and career. Sarah is someone I met through social media after a friend of mine discovered she had a similar story to my own. After reaching out to her about my podcast and asking her to be part of it, it didn’t take Sarah long to come onboard. I am so grateful to have her as a guest because she gets to showcase her story of her mental health and being a lawyer. Furthermore she gets to fulfil her mission to help others in her profession to look to and start looking after their mental health. Sarah doesn’t want others to suffer as she has suffered. Please forgive the audio quality of this one. I am new to podcasting and this one was done remotely. I am learning as I go and doing this all on my own with no budget to employ others to help. I hope you can see past any audio downfalls and focus on the very important message here, which is to help normalise mental health care for everyone.If you feel this podcast can help you and/or others please share and subscribe.
