Description

Now is the Time – To Bet on Yourself.  After three years of bobbing and weaving through various pandemic-related stressors and restrictions, now is the time to re-focus on us. This seminar will provide valuable opportunities to re-energize and treat every aspect of ourselves.  The workshops, CLEs, and networking offerings are designed to help female attorneys and their supporters take control of their professional development and prioritize their mental health. You will learn tried and true tips that you can immediately employ at various networking events. Not only will you find the small group offerings you have come to know and love from the WITL seminar, but you will expand your network through our partnerships with the Construction Law and Civil Rights.  Life is not a game of chance. After this seminar, you will be fully armed to do more than just roll the dice – you will be taking charge and playing your cards to your fullest advantage.
