    Black Privilege, a Pilot and a Pandemic

    Belinda and I started this podcast in a pandemic. We had both recently graduated into a world that was so different from what we dreamt and we knew weren't alone in dealing with dashed hopes. In addition, we knew that the career landscape would change so rapidly, so we wanted to help people prepare for their changes, pivots and switches. We talk about living as immigrants, moving from being completely independent in South Africa to being students and what it's like to live countries where black people are the minority.

    Let's Make The Shift

    The Legal Werk is a network for legal professionals with the goal of building a community for lawyers, advocates, judges, legal advisors, students, and educators. The aim of the platform is to create a space for legal professionals to open up conversations, learn and share insights on ways in which we can collectively enhance and improve the legal industry through collaboration and dialogue. Based on our own career paths, we realised that a career in law is certainly not as linear as we imagined in law school. In fact, there are so many different paths that legal professionals can choose from, be it moving in-house after years in practice, answering the call to the bar, launching your own business or even moving to academia. Through the podcast, we will be interviewing incredible women within the legal industry who have "Made the Shift" successfully. Through our three pillars Work, Lifestyle and Journey our aim is to uplift, inspire and encourage our community members who are looking to make some personal and professional life changes.
