Tired of feeling disconnected from your passion for law? Virginia’s refreshingly candid book tackles the often-hidden struggles of legal professionals with wit, wisdom, and unexpected warmth. Through science-backed insights, entertaining stories, and yes—chocolate analogies—this unique guide helps burnt-out lawyers rediscover their spark.
Virginia fearlessly explores the discontentment plaguing the legal profession, offering a lighthearted yet profound approach to professional renewal. More than just career advice, this is a journey towards authentic practice that benefits both you and your clients.
Warning! This book is written from an unusually light perspective on a dark and otherwise closeted subject – personal discontentment within the legal profession.
Author Virginia is asking us lawyers to take a step back and look at ourselves with a sense of humor and lightness, from a place that others might fear to tread. That said, with serious science and other entertaining stories, she injects the spark of purpose back into those of you that feel like your heartbeat within the legal profession is about to flatline.
Putting the fun back into your fundamentals and using chocolate as her ally, Virginia promises you that what she has to teach cannot be unlearned. You will explore parts of you that have shied away from the light of existence. In a meet and greet with your true self, not only will your clients thank you, you too, will thank you.
Every lawyer should read this book because it contains that “one thing” that a lawyer needs to find to be “loved”. Happy reading and lawyer “heal thyself and be loved”. – Tom Gyorffy QC, Melbourne, Australia
