21. Compassion Through Crisis: Discovering Strength in Vulnerability | Bibi Fell, Fell Law

Listen Later

Bibi Fell is an absolute icon. For one client, her quick wit resulted in a $105MM verdict and hundreds of millions in restitution for many others. She is a Top 100 Trial Lawyer, ranked by the National Trial Lawyers. Founder of Fell Law, she is a champion for justice and serves as Partner at Athea Trial Lawyers. They are a band of the best female trial attorneys in the nation. She is an educator, mentor, and mother. 

Beyond the accolades, what set's Bibi apart is her unflinching compassion. When the world crumbled around her, she had every reason to give up. Quit law. Turn and hide. Instead, she gathered herself up, sought help, dove into vulnerability, and came out stronger in the end. 

She shares her story today as a reminder that life can be awful. But how we respond is up to us. 

Key takeaways:

  • Seek help early. When everything seems right, go to therapy and learn to develop the skills necessary to navigate a crisis successfully. 
  • Tap into compassion. When loved ones are struggling, hold space and support them. 
  • Keep going. Life comes with unavoidable challenges. How we respond to adversity is a choice.
