the
inside scoop!
As the first ever expression of "Legally Different" that I shared with the world, the podcast is so dear to me. A concept first formed in 2018 whilst living in Bali, having made bold changes in my life . I still remember it - sat on a terrace with my sister when the name "Legally Different" landed. It wasn't until 2020 when I set about creating the podcast and the first season was released!
Initiating a #legallydifferent movement, the podcast was the first of its kind in the way that it questioned the industry status quo and offered legal professionals a permission slip to create bespoke, non-linear career paths, which I am truly proud of.
In truth, it's exactly what I needed to help me through my career transition in 2016/17 (around my Saturn Return) but nothing like it existed at the time. A go-to place to know that I was not alone in craving something different for my career & life other than the traditional template on offer, to receive inspiration & tangible guidance for making a change and to learn about truly helpful tools to support my ongoing career progression and entrepreneurial journey.
The podcast has evolved to incorporate teachings & insights on the Human Design system - my favourite go-to tool to help you to understand your own unique blueprint for success. After all, we are all Legally Different By Design® there's no one-size-fits-all blueprint for success.
You can expect expect solo episodes and enlightening conversations with pioneering legal practitioners and entrepreneurs who have successfully carved out intentional career paths. These conversations will empower and equip you to embrace your own legally different path, simply by being you and leveraging what makes you unique. If you’re ready to find, create or evolve your soul aligned career or business, this podcast is for you.
Messages like this one make my heart do a cartwheel! It's exactly why I created this space, to empower, inspire and equip Legally Different® humans to make aligned decisions and changes so they can feel success at a soul level.
The evolution continues - thanks for being a part of it!
