    Stop Checking Boxes & Start Building a Life You Actually Love

    Today, I'm reflecting on my journey through the legal profession and the importance of redefining success on your own terms. I discuss the 'success trap' that many high achievers fall into, where they pursue goals based on external expectations rather than personal fulfillment. Self-reflection, understanding personal values, and taking intentional actions is key to create a fulfilling career and life. -- Stay connected with Erin GernerWebsite https://www.eringerner.com/   LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/erin-gerner/Facebook https://www.facebook.com/erin.w.gernerInstagram https://www.instagram.com/eringerner/?hl=en
