Recovering Lawyer Podcast Starts Here!

This episode is to welcome you to the forthcoming Recovering Lawyer podcast and to let you know what to expect!

This podcast is for lawyers and other "recovering" professionals who are seeking to redevelop those parts of themselves that professional careers tend to force us to leave behind.

Episode-by-episode, you'll hear stories and conversations about what exists "beyond the boardroom" in the lives of incredibly interesting guests who have found ways to be both successful and fulfilled. The conversations are candid, soulful, and smart, quickly getting to the heart of the matter at hand⎯the path forward to personal fulfillment.

You'll leave each episode with ideas for your own life, the warm glow of a good time with friends, and enough inspiration that should last you to the next episode.

Your host is the self-described "forever Recovering Lawyer," Jaunique Sealey.

About the Podcast

Recovering Lawyer
RECOVERING LAWYER is a podcast about reclaiming the parts of ourselves that are cast-off along the way to professional success. I consider myself a “recovering lawyer” not because I no longer actively practice, but because I am actively developing those aspects of myself that were left behind in my conventional professional pursuits, “recovering” those pieces—on the path to becoming a better person, and more effective in work and play. This podcast shares my journey as well as the compelling stories of others who are also “recovering” in this way, whether in active legal practice or charting other courses. In this season, I am recovering my artistic abilities in the visual and fine arts. I have been taking an online drawing class, am learning to paint, and have been visiting museums, galleries and art shows as a priority. And, I'm re-learning to play the piano. With my guests, I will begin each interview with the simple question, “What are you recovering in this season of your life?” I look forward to hearing these answers and learning more about the journey toward balance, wholeness, and a life well-lived.
