In this episode, Kathryn speaks with Heather Weigler, Assistant Attorney General at the Oregon Department of Justice, about escaping big law and making the world a better place. Heather tried to eliminate the existential dread and unhappiness from work that affected her life and well-being. Gender imbalance in the legal realm further motivated her to volunteer to help women gain their place in the industry.

Tune in to know how Heather manages to be more than her last achievement, finding that unicorn of a legal job and using stand-up comedy and TikTok as a release from job stress.
