Welcome back to the Law School Toolbox podcast! Today, we're talking about what we learned about relationships at the Wisdom 2.0 conference we recently attended.

In this episode we discuss:

• Relationships in the workplace and how they can foster growth
• Why learning to cope with emotionally-challenging work can make you better at your job
• How lawyers tend to neglect their emotional brain and how this can impact your work life
• Why it’s important to be a better communicator and steps to do so
• How to advocate to a superior about why your skills are better used elsewhere (not on boring document review)
• The importance of paying attention to what and how you are emailing
