The Boutique Lawyer Show: Designing your life as a firm owner

The new financial year offers business owners a chance to regroup, recalibrate, and determine what comes next. Award-winning sole practitioner Claire Styles says firm leaders must take a more holistic approach to such a process to ensure better outcomes not just professionally but also personally. In this episode of The Boutique Lawyer Show, host Jerome Doraisamy welcomes back C Legal founder and principal Claire Styles, who last year won the Sole Practitioner category at the Women in Law Awards, about what it means to design one's life as a firm owner, why this is so important for her, taking a more existential and holistic approach to such questions, and appreciating what it means to run a small business and have a personal life at the same time.

Styles also delves into the growing number of small law firm owners taking the approach she espouses, the practical steps to take and questions to ask in redesigning a life and business approach that makes sense to an individual practitioner, and what she looks forward to in the new financial year.
