Navigating Trial Season: Eating for Success! (And to avoid the ER)

For litigators, trial is usually the highest stakes thing we can do. 

Doing well at trial can be amazing for your career, good for your self esteem, and tell you that your imposter syndrome is a big ol’ liar, (at least… for a little bit). And because it’s such a big deal, there is a tendency to think that your own health, your own welfare, can take a back seat. Nutrition, sleep, hydration, movement… those things don’t matter during trial, right? No.

Failing to take care of yourself at trial in favour of spending more time working… isn’t going to serve you.

This episode is perfectly timed to offer essential self-care tips for lawyers during trial season, ensuring you stay healthy and energized.

Whether you’re facing a three-day hearing or a month-long trial, these tips are designed to help you navigate this demanding period with confidence and resilience. So, tune in and discover how to take care of yourself while you take care of business in the courtroom.

Follow, rate, and share this episode with your fellow litigators, and remember to soak up the last rays of summer while you prepare for a successful fall trial season. Go get 'em!

The Legal Stuff (because obviously): This podcast is for informational and entertainment purposes only. This is a podcast by a lawyer, for lawyers. But I am not *your* lawyer. I’m also not your therapist, your finance professional, or your personal life coach. Nothing in this podcast should be considered legal advice, and any suggestions or recommendations that you decide to undertake of your own accord, those are on you my friend. This podcast is meant to be a place where we can talk about life as lawyers, but at the end of the day, you are the one making your own decisions. Perhaps we can help you make some better ones. We are not liable for any choices you make. But you probably already knew that.
