Episode 55. A Fiery Little Revolution From the Inside with Mollie Tregillis
About Our Guest:
Mollie Tregillis spent years building a senior consulting practice inside one of Australia's largest law firms. She had the team, the mandate, the support of leadership, and work she had essentially designed herself. She was also burning out, quietly, while performing at the top of her game.
This conversation covers the year Mollie spent doing the internal work before she left, the nervous system reset, the deliberate dialling back of effort, and the very inconvenient realisation that she would not be staying. She is honest about the pride involved in not wanting to leave broken, about the deconditioning process on the other side, and about what building something new actually looks like when you refuse to take the easy route of consulting in your old field.
If you are in the part of a legal career where the blueprint is starting to crack, this conversation will give you language for what you are experiencing and a few practical places to start.
