#17: Dirty Laundry

In this episode, I take a look at what often isn’t talked about by lawyers: the pressures we face and how we often cope with them. Unfortunately, we tend to have to keep our personal lives to ourselves, as well as comparing ourselves to others. Today I reveal how all of these factors can quickly erode our self-confidence, and what we can do about this.  Things you will learn in this episode:  How early students start to compare themselves against others with different backgrounds or higher-tiered school backgrounds  How schools teaching you etiquette for the interview process can lead to an imposter syndrome  Why attorneys suffer from higher levels of depression, alcohol abuse, and suicide  Why lawyers tend to keep things to themselves and don’t share their struggle with others  Why we need to realize that no attorney is perfect and that we’re all humans    Get full show notes and more information here: http://www.hustleandflowpodcast.com/17
