    Finale of the New Lawyer Podcast

    This episode marks the finale of the New Lawyer Podcast and the New Lawyer Project (!!!) In the episode I explain what will happen to the existing episodes in the future, and I reflect on the project, and on the state of the legal industry now and into the future. I also let you know what I have been up to and where you can find the work I am making now. Thank you so much for joining me along the way. This project would not have worked if it was just me alone, so thank you for listening and sharing (especially sharing - let me tell you how fun it is to have a podcast without a social media presence!).  You can still share the podcast with friends if you think they would fine it useful, and of course you can purchase the book The New Lawyer Companion: Essays on law, life and humanity from LexisNexis anytime, with free shipping in New Zealand.  From August 2023 you can find me and my work at symphonia.co.nz, and my fortnightly substack newsletter on complexity, human culture/climate culture and feelings (but in a fun way) at katiecowan.substack.com. Do stay in touch. Till next time listeners xx

    Part 2: Tayla and Adair talk admission, tokenism, and bringing Tikanga into the way law is practised

    This is part 2 of my conversation with Tayla and Adair, solicitors at Kāhui legal, in which we talk about issues and experiences in law that matter most to them. These include their experiences of admission, of some misguided and tokenistic ways firms attempt to improve diversity in the profession, and of bringing te reo and Tikanga Māori into the way they practise.  They were so generous with their perspectives and experience and I loved it all. Tayla and Adair also contributed a chapter to my book The New Lawyer Companion: Essays on law, life and humanity, available to the public later in 2021.

    Sarah talks networking that feels good, finding your fit in Australia or New Zealand, and law adjacent careers

    In this episode I chat with Sarah Alderson from PocketLegal about her ten years in practice in New Zealand and Australia, including how she went about finding jobs throughout, leading to her recent move to establish her CPD and networking business. It was so lovely to talk about finding fit and non-formulaic ways through one's career, and how she is going about improving the experience of legal practice for New Zealand lawyers now.
