LISTEN TO PODCAST EPISODES

At You Are A Lawyer, we know you changed careers or started an side hustle because you're ambitious. But in order to feel like your law degree is valuable, you need to feel respected and like your varying career path is appreciated

The problem is that you don’t have time to convince everyone that you creates a great business or changed careers intentionally, which is why you don’t mention your law degree, and that makes you feel like you’re hiding. We understand and host, Kyla Denanyoh, did the same thing.

You shouldn’t have to choose between creating an extraordinary life you love and being ridiculed for not being a traditional lawyer. 

That's why Kyla created the You Are A Lawyer podcast to promote what you've done with your law degree.
