Sam left legal practice and has spent the last three years helping women entrepreneurs legally protect and grow their online businesses with her DIY Legal Templates and Fearlessly Legal™ Ultimate Bundle program.

In this conversation, Sam shares about:

• Why she “hated every second” of corporate litigation;
• How she got sick of her own complaining about being a lawyer;
• Being told from a young age that she should be a lawyer because she was loud and opinionated;
• Being “laser-focused” on getting into law school in undergrad, even though she didn’t know that much about law school or being a lawyer;
• Her nightmare first job where associates were paid at 1/4 of the typical rate and made to compete for a permanent position;
• Her experience with harassment and the ways in which the legal profession props up abusers;
• Winning an attorney of the year award and not even wanting to go to the ceremony;
• Desperately Googling for stories of people who have successfully left the law;
• How there’s no such thing as vacation when you have a billable target to meet, because you’re just “buying time” that you have to make up;
• The moment that changed everything for her and made her decide to leave the law;
• Putting tons of pressure on herself to have the thing she chose to do after leaving the law be “THE THING” she was going to do forever;
• Leaving the law and opening a health coaching business;
• Why making her hobbies her job was not a good choice for her;
• How just listening to what other women entrepreneurs were asking her led to her current business;
• The importance of doing the inner work to detangle who you are from what you do for work;
• Why leaving the law will not solve all of your problems; 
• Her best piece of advice if you want to get out of the law;
