Lawyer Side Hustles

Whitney Harvey's business, The Self-Coached Lawyer, is not limited to the legal profession but extends its reach to community visionaries and advocates seeking to tap into their purpose and repurpose their current careers. Through her business, Whitney emphasizes the importance of addressing burnout, well-being, finding one's purpose, and incorporating spiritual and mindfulness components into one's profession.

“You really can craft your ideal profession...it's looking at the parts of what you've done that you do enjoy, keeping that. So you can keep that on your plate. And then you can innovate. You can explore and do something that's never been done,” shares Whitney Harvey in Episode 147 of You Are a Lawyer.

Whitney also highlighted the possibility of having a side business as a lawyer, emphasizing the importance of exploring different avenues without immediately quitting one's day job. She mentioned how individuals can work part-time for someone else, teach at a college or university, engage in speaking engagements, or delve into coaching and consulting while still maintaining their current profession. This approach allows for the freedom to explore and create a unique career path tailored to individual interests and aspirations.
