WCL Alumna & Author Chelsy Castro discusses her book 50 Lessons for Happy Lawyers
Join WCL alumna, author, and lawyer-turned-psychotherapist Chelsy
Castro for a training on the science-based skills central to lessons
from the upcoming book 50 Lessons for Happy Lawyers: Boost wellness.
Build resilience. Yes, you can!
Some people will
tell you that happiness is a choice. It’s not quite that simple.
Happiness, like the law, is a practice. It is something we can
cultivate—little by little and bit by bit—every day. While we cannot
merely flip a switch and become happy, we can practice happiness, and
Chelsy will use her skills as a performance coach to help you focus
on how to achieve your goals in healthy and productive ways.
