Women lawyers have made great strides over the past few decades, but the legal profession, like many other professions, has not dismantled the obstacles that impact women. Her Story: The Resilient Woman Lawyer's Guide to Conquering Obstacles, Book 2, the second book by the Litigation Section's Woman Advocate Committee and the sequel to Her Story: Lessons in Success from Lawyers Who Live It, is a collection of essays that tell us that we are not alone, that there is a sisterhood in the legal profession that supports us, and that we can learn from one another and lift up others who share our experiences. These are meaningful and hope-filled stories about the value of being true to ourselves, establishing unique career paths, and finding guideposts and beacons to enlighten us along the way to success. Her Story is a guidebook through tough times and a road map for eliminating the obstacles we can change.
Her Story is designed to encourage further discussion on topics that we all face but seldom speak about. Each chapter ends with questions to facilitate discussion in a book club, roundtable, or meeting setting, or to reflect on personally. Enjoy the book from start to finish or by picking out a chapter or essay of interest. Topics covered include overcoming bias and promoting diversity; statistics on women in the profession; developing business, creating your brand, and mentorships; mapping your career path and planning for retirement; advice on being authentic, resilient, and grounded; and overcoming obstacles on your way to success.
