You've only got one life. Do it. In this powerful and deeply honest episode, I sit down with the trailblazing Judith Hull a litigator, writer, and contemplative introvert who's spent nearly 30 years in the legal field not playing by the old-school rules. From hanging with the boys in a male-dominated courtroom to buying a beach house on a total whim (spoiler alert: the Universe knew exactly what she needed), Judith shares how she's slowly burned down the old paradigm of hustle, over-identification, and traditional success and built something wildly more aligned. We talk about: Why success in law almost swallowed her whole Her full-body "nope" to the legal grind and what came next Letting go of performative leadership and claiming her real voice Mediation, morning pages, and lake swims as acts of rebellion The resistance (internal and external) that shows up when we dare to change Saying no with grace, and why that's the most radical thing she's learning to do This episode is a call to anyone teetering on the edge of is this really it? It's a permission slip to opt out, take up space, and remember that this isn't a dress rehearsal. Key quotes from Judith: "The more I let go of it, the easier it became to own it." "It wasn't burnout overnight—it was a slow burn in coming." "I'm not signing trust cheques at 80. I've got more to offer than that." Whether you're a woman in law or a high-achiever in any field—this one's for the you who knows deep down: it's time to burn the rulebook and rewrite the script.
