    LEARNED LESSONS--A BIRTHDAY CELEBRATION

    It’s my 34th birthday! To celebrate, I am releasing this solo episode where I reflect on the lessons learned during my 33rd year—my most challenging year to date.  When I turned 33, I wanted to be intentional about the things to come.  I prayed for abundance but yet, I was not prepared for the challenges that awaited me.  I certainly did not expect to leave my job and take a seven-month sabbatical from the practice of law.  I later learned that to receive all the things I was praying for, some things in my life had to change.  I also had to relearn myself and do the necessary work within myself to get to know me again—mentally, spiritually, emotionally and physically.   This last year was truly a year of growth and I look forward to continued growth in this next year.  I am excited to celebrate another year with my viewers and listeners. The most important lesson learned during my 33rd year- always trust yourself and never apologize for being your authentic self! Cheers to another year! #blackwomeninlaw #blackwomenprofessionals #blackwomenlawyers #authenticity #unapologetically #unapologetic #legallyunapologetic #newpodcastalert #newpodcastepisode   Website: https://www.buzzsprout.com/2143361   Instagram: @legallyunapologetic  Instagram: @omg_esq  YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCC18Fz-UKOJB6BF0C2AmQEw   Linktree: https://linktr.ee/legallyunapologeticthepodcast Contact: omgesq@gmail.com   Theme Music: “Legally *Unapologetic” Produced by: Versace P (@versaceptheofficial)

    SUCCESS WITHOUT SELF-WORTH MEANS NOTHING PART II (Featuring Joy White, Esq.)

    Success is the key to having a great life, right?  But what is success without self-worth and self-fulfillment?  Joy White, Esq., is a successful attorney and entrepreneur in Atlanta, Georgia.  Prior to starting her own company in 2020, Joy achieved immense success as a partner of a global law firm and general counsel at Morehouse College.  To most, Joy had it all.  However, and unbeknownst to most in Joy’s circle, she was struggling to heal from her own personal traumas—to the point in which these traumas started to appear in other aspects of her personal and professional life.    In part two of this conversation, Joy shares how she addressed her unresolved trauma as part of her own healing process.  She also discusses how she turned her life and experience into a successful coaching business, where she helps her clients embrace their flaws while transforming unconscious shame into radical self-acceptance.  A flawed masterpiece, Joy has found joy and happiness in her own personal journey.  Her raw story is an inspiration to all—as she reminds us of what authenticity looks like and why we should unapologetically be ourselves.    #blackwomeninlaw #blackwomenprofessionals #blackwomenlawyers #womensupportingwomen #womenempoweringwomen #womenempowerment #authenticity #unapologetic #legallyunapologetic #newpodcastalert #newpodcastepisode    Website: https://www.buzzsprout.com/2143361   Instagram: @legallyunapologetic  Instagram: @omg_esq    YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCC18Fz-UKOJB6BF0C2AmQEw  Linktree: https://linktr.ee/legallyunapologeticthepodcast Finding Joy in the Journey: A Flawed Masterpiece Short Film: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qNlDpEdyA7g&t=8s   Contact: omgesq@gmail.com  Theme Music: “Legally *Unapologetic” Produced by: Versace P (@versaceptheofficial)

    I AM NOTHING WITHOUT MY SISTER TRIBE (Featuring LaKeisha C. Marsh, Esq.)

    Sisterhood among black women is an unexplainable bond.  Whether its bonding over shared experiences or empowering each other to move forward—having a strong support system of like-minded individuals has proven essential to anyone’s personal and professional success.   This week, OMG sits down with prominent law firm partner, LaKeisha C.

    FOLLOWING YOUR PASSION TO FIND YOUR PURPOSE (Featuring Sophia Ward, Esq.)

    “Follow your passion. It will lead you to your purpose.”  That’s a famous quote from the great Oprah Winfrey.  As lawyers, we are passionate about our daily work and the results we drive for our clients.  But what are some of our passions outside of the law and how do we tap into those with the demands that often come with life and the practice of law?  This week, OMG sits down with lawyer, mom, entrepreneur and boss, Sophia Ward, Esq. to discuss how Sophia taps into her other passions outside of the law—leading to lucrative income streams—while also managing her household as a mom and wife and managing her career as an experience trial attorney and law firm partner.  With a hustler’s mentality, Sophia has truly found her purpose—both in and outside of the practice of law.    #blackwomeninlaw #blackwomenprofessionals #blackwomenlawyers #blackwomen #workingmom #blackwomenentrepreneurs #femaleentrepreneurs  #authenticity #unapologetic #legallyunapologetic #newpodcastalert #newpodcastepisode  Website: https://www.buzzsprout.com/2143361 Instagram: @legallyunapologetic  Instagram: @omg_esq    YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCC18Fz-UKOJB6BF0C2AmQEw  Linktree: https://linktr.ee/legallyunapologeticthepodcast   Contact: omgesq@gmail.com   Theme Music: “Legally *Unapologetic” Produced by: Versace P (@versaceptheofficial)

    Welcome to Legally *Unapologetic.  In this series premiere, former big law associate, Octavia M.
