From Underestimated To Unstoppable: Attorney Michelle Gervais On Redefining Success In Work And Life And Rising Above Doubt

from Women Advancing

What does it take to rise above and silence doubt when the world sets a low bar of expectation for you? Host Kate Byrne welcomes the ultimate ladder-builder, Michelle Gervais, a Partner at Blank Rome LLP, Adjunct Professor, Co-chair of the Sports Industry Group, and President of WISE Tampa Bay. Michelle shares her powerful story of being underestimated from a young age and how she navigates the high-stakes world of matrimonial and commercial litigation with “steel and grace,” proving her worth not with revenge, but with result. They dig into how to stay grounded under pressure, the value of authenticity over “pretzeling” yourself for others, and why having a “big, bad table of everybody” is crucial for growth and building conviction in rooms that “weren’t built for you.”Love the show?
