How do I put out this fire?
from Bar Review · host Annika Misurya and Cari Brunkow
In this episode of Bar Review, we break down the chaos of legal "firedrills." The unexpected deadlines, late-night filings, and chain reactions that ripple through a team and through your nervous system. Cari and Annika get personal about what it feels like to live under pressure, the importance of assuming good intentions, and how managing your own capacity is only half the battle. The real work? Managing the impact of your asks on others. From calendar buffers to communication strategies, this conversation offers a raw look at how lawyers cope with the never-enough-hours reality of modern legal practice. While hopefully making it home for dinner and bedtime.Join us for unfiltered lawyer stories, real talk about life as a lawyer, how to (maybe) survive life as a litigator, what it means to be women in law, exploring law school journeys, and the everyday realities of the legal profession — only on the Bar Review Podcast.
