WILL - Women Interested in Leaving Law

From Law to Coaching: How Values Led Jessie Brown


Listen Later

“What if nothing is wrong… but it still doesn’t feel right?”

Jessie Brown didn’t hate being a lawyer. She had a prestigious career, stable income, and was at a “good” firm. But beneath it all, something felt off.


After years of pushing through and ignoring what her body told her, Jessie reached a turning point.


In this episode, Jessie shares her journey from Big Law to coaching and how she left behind a life built on safety to follow something far more aligned.


We talked about:

  • How you can outgrow a “good” legal career and what keeps lawyers stuck
  • How to listen to your body as a compass for career decisions
  • Why curiosity (not clarity) is the first step to career change
  • The difference between career coaching and deeper “soul-level” work
  • Why not everyone needs to leave law, but everyone needs alignment
