Workshop with Paula Davis-Laack, JD, MAPP

Wednesday, November 15th @ 5:15pm, WCC 1010-Dinner provided

Challenge, change and uncertainty are the new norm in today’s legal profession. Busy lawyers are maxed out as they deal with the stress and pressure of a demanding profession, and those entering the profession are expected to be “practice ready” on day one.

Luckily, there are specific research-based strategies that have been shown to ease the stress, prevent burnout and build your resilience to the pressure.

During these workshops, you’ll learn about and practice some of following:

• Simple strategies for managing stress during exams
• How to cross-examine counterproductive thinking
• A five-step process to reframe rejection and failure
• Perfectionism – does it help or harm?
• What causes burnout and the key warning signs
• A fun skill to increase connection and build high-quality relationships

Paula Davis-Laack, JD, MAPP, is a former practicing lawyer turned stress and resilience expert who started her own company teaching busy lawyers, law students and organizations how to build their resilience to  stress.
