3.15 Create a career you love as a millennial lawyer with content creator & mental health advocate That Corporate Lawyer, Henry Nelson-Case (1/3 Manifestor)
Saison 3 · Épisode 15
mercredi 20 novembre 2024 • Durée 01:02:59
Crippled with anxiety and stress not being able to physically move and get up for work one Friday morning in 2020 to being a globally recognised content creator and mental health advocate challenging toxic corporate culture, Henry Nelson-Case (who you probably know as That Corporate Lawyer) has created a multi-passionate and fulfilling career that breaks the norms of the traditional legal career path.
But how? Henry’s career looks very different now to when he began life as a corporate city lawyer.
We get into how Henry created a portfolio career as a content creator, mental health advocate and a consultant lawyer all on his terms. Working in a way that’s aligned with his passions, strengths and natural working ways has led to opportunities like being on a billboard in Piccadilly Circus, doing a Ted X talk and working with global brands.
It all began with one TikTok video that he nearly deleted….
We take a deep dive into Henry’s journey to uncover how he is able to make money from his gifts, have a global personal brand and still practice law in a way that works for him.
We also candidly get into millennial working ways, toxic corporate culture, dealing with imposter syndrome, judgements from colleagues and so much more. You can expect:-
How Henry got started as a content creator
The first TikTok video that nearly got deleted - why he kept it and how he kept going
The key ingredient to being a content creator that most people overlook
Moving beyond judgements of colleagues, friends & family when doing something different
Working outside of the corporate ladder structure & creating your own path
Working through imposter syndrome
Making money from your passions
Why following your joy matters
Toxic corporate & legal behaviors
Urgency culture
Millennials, their traits & why they won’t make phone calls
Millennials as leaders
Different working norms between the generators

In today’s episode of Legally Different, your host Lauren Kay shares a grounded and foundational understanding on what Human Design is and how it can be applied to you as a legal professional in your career, business and beyond.
This episode is for you if you’re brand new to Human Design or if you’re familiar and are seeking a refresher.

Many professionals and entrepreneurs in the legal sphere are increasingly adopting Human Design as a personal and professional self development tool, as it holds infinite power and wisdom when navigating your career journey. Human design is essentially a written document of your soul contract. It’s a confirmation and clarity of who you are, what your purpose is, what work you’re here to do and how you’re here to do it.
When utilised, the information Human Design provides has the potential to be your superpower. It’s essentially a map of your gifts, talents, strengths, decision making, opportunities, network, communication and so much more. The more you work in alignment with your Human Design, the more you can experience flow and less resistance.

Law as a Tool for Change // Janvi Patel - Female Founder, Entrepreneur, Producer and Activist for Women and Children's Rights
Saison 2 · Épisode 13
mercredi 27 avril 2022 • Durée 01:16:46
"I realised that as much as I can advise on the law, I can also change it" summarises the essence of this conversation with the wonderful Janvi Patel; an entrepreneur, female founder, producer and an activist for women and children’s rights. These titles (expanded on below) only scratch the surface of Janvi’s accomplishments and pioneering path!
As a private practice lawyer, Janvi received an instinctive feeling that she needed to leave her role – which was at odds with her as an ambitious and diligent woman who didn’t associate with being spontaneous. However, she trusted this soul nudge, left and this led to a path of entrepreneurialism and activism unfolding…...
Janvi co-founded Halebury (launched 2007) and spearheaded operational, structural and cultural change within the legal services profession through a unique business model relating to senior in-house Counsel resourcing, which was then acquired in 2018 by Elevate, a global law company.
Janvi is also a founding board member of the legal campaign #FreePeriods, which aims to end period poverty and was part of the team that successfully campaigned the UK Government for free period products in schools. Amongst many other things, Janvi is also on the investment committee of Aliavia Ventures - a female founder VC fund, is a founder of Support SEND Kids to ensure SEND child have access to education, and most recently she has launched a production company and is in the process of finalizing a documentary series.
We also chat a little about Janvi’s Human Design in this conversation; she is a Manifestor which I could really see in her - an entrepreneurial initiator who is trailblazing us into new ways. In this episode we dive into:-
Janvi’s background, journey into law and early professional years
Indian immigrant background – pressure to do well and have a professional career
Scraping by in A-levels; Mum calling to get her a place at University
Studying Law and Accounting at Manchester University
Leadership and Law with a Roar // Vanessa Challess - Founder & Principal of Tiger Law
Saison 2 · Épisode 12
vendredi 8 avril 2022 • Durée 45:28
Join me in this conversation with Vanessa Challess; Founder, Principal and the force behind of Tiger Law and its sister businesses Tiger Bytes and Tiger HR - force being the operative word here as Vanessa has such passionate and motivating energy!
Vanessa is not afraid to speak what is on her heart and mind which makes for a very real and open conversation. We dive into a number of topics such a female inequality in law, integrity as a lawyer and what it means to be a real leader. You will hear about Vanessa's journey to becoming a lawyer which, after quitting school at 15, wasn't a conventional path (which sums up Vanessa's uniquely inspiring ways), her experiences in private practice (including inequalities faced as a woman in law, amongst other things) which very much fuelled Vanessa's desire to create her own business and do law on her own terms.
Vanessa's leadership style, which we dive into and unpack, is aptly captured by the name 'Tiger Law'. What really stood out to me is how passionately protective and caring Vanessa is over her staff; nurturing their talents, encouraging them to be themselves and having their backs was something that came through to me strongly.
In this episode we dive into:-
Background and journey into law
Leaving school at 15;
‘Real’ realisations about what Vanessa wanted for her life;
Back to education - humanities based A-levels and why Vanessa thinks these are valuable;
Philosophy degree – the lure of academia; and
CPE conversion & LPC vs benefits practical learning avenues.
