Lawyer's Coach
SERIES 2: SUCCESS
In Series 2, Claire and Oliver interview a range of inspirational figures in law, all with different stories and journeys, to explore what success means and looks like in law. They discover that ultimately success is not what someone else defines for you, but what you chose for yourself.
The podcast Lawyer's Coach is sponsored by Client Talk and Hansard Coaching.
