About the Host

Kyla Denanyoh

Host of You Are A Lawyer

Kyla Denanyoh is a storyteller, innovator, and unapologetic talker who turned her curiosity into a podcast with a global audience.

After working in Big Law as an operations coordinator, Kyla became fascinated with lawyers in non-traditional roles. While thriving in her career, Kyla was consistently reminded that she was *just* a lawyer; never becoming an attorney because she did not pass the Louisiana bar exam.

Kyla began to wonder: What does it really mean to be a lawyer?

In April 2020, Kyla Denanyoh launched You Are A Lawyer, a podcast that celebrates the extraordinary lives of unique lawyers. Since then, Kyla has interviewed 200+ guests, building an engaged community of lawyers, law students, and anyone curious about risk-taking lawyers.

As a podcast host, Kyla uses the research skills she gained while attending Southern University Law Center. In law school, Kyla served as Student Bar Association Parliamentarian and Editor-In-Chief of the law school newspaper, The Public Defender.

Kyla brings the same leadership, curiosity, and enthusiasm for checklists as the host of You Are A Lawyer.
