You might think burnout is just part of the deal in law, but it’s really about what we’ve been socialized to believe we “should” be doing to prove ourselves, especially as women. The good news is that you can change those thought patterns and create a career that doesn’t burn you out. Hosted by Heather Mills, a coach and former class action attorney, this show offers practical tools to help you escape burnout culture without sacrificing your career or income. You’ll learn how to restore your energy, build a sustainable legal career, and stay in control of your success. Press play and take the first step toward feeling good in your career again. Heather understands the unique pressures for women in law – the urge to prove yourself, the drive to overwork and be perfect, the expectation to put in endless hours, and all the ways we’re taught to measure our worth by how much we achieve and do for others. That's why she's on a mission to end burnout culture for women in law. This show is all about giving you the concrete tools, strategies, and mindset shifts you need to reclaim your energy, confidence, and career. Whether you're feeling overwhelmed by long hours, wondering how long you can go on like this, or questioning if success has to come at such a high personal cost, this podcast provides the support you need. Tune in every week to break free from burnout and discover how to create a legal career that actually feels good to live in, not just impressive on paper.

014 The WHAT IF It Gets to Be Good? Series: Reclaim Desire

When checking all the boxes still feels empty, this episode helps you reconnect with what you truly want most.

This episode kicks off a new series, What If It Gets to Be Good?, a 3-part invitation for women lawyers who are ready to stop performing and start feeling fully alive again.

You’ve built a successful legal career. You’re respected, capable, and still getting things done. But inside, something’s missing.
You’ve lost the clarity that used to drive you. You’re exhausted from holding everything together.

And when someone asks what you actually want, your mind goes blank.

If that sounds familiar, this conversation is for you.


We’re starting the series with one of the most common experiences for high-achieving women in stress: a disconnection from desire.
Not because you’re apathetic. Not because you lack ambition.
But because you’ve spent years scanning for what others need from you—while tuning out your own voice.


In this episode, we’ll explore:

  • Why the question “What do I want?” can feel paralyzing
  • How stress rewires your brain to ignore your own needs
  • The hidden cost of being useful, reliable, and high-performing
  • Why desire often feels uncomfortable or even unsafe
  • A simple practice to begin reconnecting with what you long for
  • How to access clarity without blowing up your life

This series isn’t about doing more. It’s about becoming more yourself.

It’s for the part of you that wants something quieter. Truer. More alive.

The version of you . . . 

  • Who can leave work at five and not explain herself
  • Who knows how to rest
  • Who feels clear, even when things are uncertain
  • Who chooses alignment over approval

This is your reminder that more is possible. You don’t have to settle for surviving.
