About this listen
Amy Johnson is a mother of six, family lawyer and managing partner. We talk about leaving an unsafe marriage, building a career from scratch, and how faith and community opened doors when plans were unclear. Her lived experience now fuels a distinct approach to family law, safety planning, and raising good humans across different paths. We discussed:
• early life, independence, and love of learning
• staying home, daycare math, and coercive control
• the exit without a map and finding immediate help
• faith, church logistics, and “don’t shoulder check”
• safety planning, shelters, and community referrals
• mature-student tactics for law school with six kids
• hospitality as belonging and antidote to isolation
• Windsor roots, articling, and firm-building
• overnight shift to managing partner and operations
• parenting philosophy and valuing each child’s path
• practical hope for mothers feeling trapped
