About Our Guest:
This episode is a little different, because I am introducing you to Lily, the newest member of the Counsel Media team and the first person I have hired since turning the podcast into a business. We talk about how a daily coffee order turned into a job offer and why I deliberately looked outside the legal industry for this role.
Lily shares the decision she made to walk away from a place studying medicine in South Africa, move to Australia on her own and build a new life through long shifts and late night study. I also explain why I refuse to let her call any of it luck.
If you are a law student or junior lawyer in the hard years and not yet sure the commitment will pay off, Lily’s advice at the end is for you.
Or search ‘Counsel’ wherever you get your pods!
