Today’s guest is Laura Terrell, an executive coach with over twenty-five years of experience as a legal and business leader.

Prior to coaching, she was a Special Assistant to the President at the White House, a senior level appointee at the U.S. Department of Justice, an equity partner in two large, global law firms, and in-house counsel at a publicly traded company.

  • That taking a risk to do something different teaches you that there’s not one “right” path
  • Laura’s moves between private and public sector work
  • Laura’s advice on moving into government
  • How Laura enjoys the business side of practice and sees that it’s an area lawyers need support navigating
  • Understanding what the long game at big firm actually looks like
  • How to make informed decisions and not be an ostrich with your head in the sand
