Interested in learning about the transition from deadlines in law school to deadlines as a lawyer?

Have you wondered how BigLaw firm associates manage their time and participate in other organizations?

Interested in learning how Ms. JD board members plan Ms. JD Events while working a full-time job or being a law student?

In this Happy Go Legal Podcast, Chelsea interviews Kim Watson, a Ms. JD Board Member and a first year associate at an international BigLaw firm, to have a conversation about how a recent success in putting on a major event on behalf of Ms. JD has translated into strategies and lessons for future career and personal development.
