Five Years of Helping Lawyers Leave the Law inside The Former Lawyer Collaborative

Sarah is celebrating five years of The Former Lawyer Collab—and reflecting on what it’s taught her about helping lawyers leave the law. In this episode, she shares the behind-the-scenes of building the program, the patterns she’s seen in the hundreds of lawyers she’s worked with, and why the first step is always about knowing yourself better—not just updating your resume. She also talks about the importance of community when you’re making a big change, the real-life stories that keep inspiring her, and why it’s never too early to start exploring your options if you know law isn’t your forever career. If you’ve been sitting on the fence, this episode will give you a nudge and a whole lot of clarity.See show notes at formerlawyer.com/238I'm closing enrollment for my self-paced group program, the Former Lawyer Collaborative, permanently on August 31st, 2026.
