As an attorney your life is consumed with work and sometimes its difficult to keep up with the social media outlet.

Work balance was a turning point in my career. When I first became an attorney I worked hard and neglected the things that really matter in life. I spent most of the time in the office and failed to be there for my family and to enjoy life in general. Work Balance for me means three things: Academics, Athletic, and Social. In my opinion if you spend more time on one, then the other two will suffer. This episode is a special one for me because it helped me in my career and my personal life.
