Rachael Bell: Harnessing experience

Rachael Bell worked as a company director in the construction industry. Now she’s a paralegal, qualifying as a solicitor and supporting other career-changers through her social media network and podcast. She talks to us about the realities of becoming a lawyer when you already have children, a job and a maxed-out credit card.
