Today we’re talking about how to take control of your career and create success at work (even as a young associate) with guest Allison Stewart, host of Women In Law On The Record podcast. This is the perfect follow-up to last week’s episode because Allison's story shows you how to create your own space, be innovative and get noticed at work - no matter what career stage you're in or how long you've practiced law. The idea behind creating your own space is this...

If there’s an area where you want to make a difference, then take the lead to do something about it in your own way. Which is exactly what Allison did when she started her popular podcast as a young associate in BigLaw. Here's some of what we get into today:

- Why NOT wait to get started (because you don't become influential by waiting).

- Why private practice attorneys must focus on MORE than just your billable hours to move up.

- Allison’s healthy way of approaching billable hours versus non-billable hours (that has helped her be less stressed and more balanced).

- How to have real work life balance as a young lawyer (even in BigLaw).

I know you'll be inspired by Allison regardless of what stage you're in or where you currently practice law.
