Hi there and a very warm welcome to Season 6 Episode 20 of People Soup, it's Ross McIntosh here.
In this episode of People Soup, you'll meet Lucinda Soon. Lucinda is a qualified solicitor and expert in professional ethics, well-being and legal services regulation, she's also a PhD candidate at Birkbeck, University of London. Lucinda's people soup ingredients are curiosity, learning, courage and being of service. You'll hear about her career journey, from practicing law and advising on legal risk management to her transition into academia and empirical research. She discusses her passion for learning, her work on lawyers' wellbeing, including her doctoral research. Lucinda also talks about her commitment to bridging the gap between academic research and practical application in the legal profession. The conversation delves into key career moments, the importance of continual learning, and the value of pursuing a non-linear, squiggly, career path.
For those of you who are new to People Soup - welcome - it's great to have you here - I aim to provide you with ingredients for a better work life from behavioural science and beyond. For those of you who are regular P Soupers - thanks for tuning in - we love it that you're part of our community.
I've just launched my open course "Your Blueprint for Well-Being, Action & Resilience."
It's bringing ACT in the workplace to the public through the training I developed with Dr Paul Flaxman. I've delivered it to thousands of adults in the workplace with exceptional feedback. It's for people who are interested in navigating their working live more effectively. It will folks consider what really matters and what might be getting in the way of them being the person they'd really like to be. If you're a P-Souper or have trained with me in the past, please think about passing on this opportunity to a friend, colleague or family member. The maximum size of the cohort is 12 people - first come, first served. All the details are via this link.
You can also sign up for a free one hour session which introduces the course here.
There is a transcript for each episode. There is a caveat - this transcript is largely generated by Artificial Intelligence, I have corrected many errors but I won't have captured them all! You can also find the shownotes by clicking on notes then keep scrolling for all the useful links.
