I did feel like I was changing the world, but I didn't realize how heavy it all was. I had two young kids at the time, and it started to feel like a dark world to live in. Leaving law was a big risk, but I was willing to take itBefore this career leap, I had no business training. Whether I'm talking to a witness as a prosecutor or a matchmaking client, it's important to lead with empathy, listen to their story, and read between the lines. If you're working a job that doesn't make you happy, you're not serving yourself by going through those motions day after day.
