The WILL Podcast - For Women Lawyers Searching for Freedom, Flexibility and Fulfilment
Are you tired of having to “always be available,” the anxiety, and a nagging sense that something is missing?
The WILL Podcast offers an honest exploration for how to find relief, meaning and work that allows you to enjoy your life, (without throwing away all you’ve invested).
This podcast is for any woman lawyer who has ever questioned if they want to stay in law or not. Here you’ll find a window into how others have dealt with the money, identity and figured out what else they could do (in law or out).
Each episode is a journey into the lives of women lawyers who got fed up with the status quo. You’ll hear about persistent doubt, piles of debt, and physical and mental depletion. Our guests reveal how they navigated the expectations of workplace cultures and inner critics that keep them isolated and wondering “what’s wrong with me.”

Highs & Lows: Navigating Motherhood & Legal Career with Erin Cowling
Imagine you’re a ’rising star’ litigation lawyer at a big law firm.
You get married, become pregnant with your first, then second children, and take your maternity leave.
When you return to work, you find most of your files given away to male associates, no practice, no book of business and no partner offer.
You’re let go and jump on the next offer you get.
Then one day in the doctor’s office, pregnant with child number three, you break down in tears, diagnosed with depression and immediately know work is the cause.
