We all want to be strong, but everyone needs a break sometimes. It’s easy to feel pressure to keep it all together, especially in high-stress careers like law. One viewer is struggling to balance the demands of her legal career with her emotional well-being. She feels drained and fears that asking for help will be seen as a sign of weakness.
In this segment of ‘Life Quakes’, hosts Jessica Reyes, Patricia Wu and guest lawyer and wellness advocate Javoyne Hicks, discuss why it’s important to set boundaries, how to find support, and how to separate your work persona from your home life.

“Harmonizing” work commitments with self-care means having some days when you work longer and some days when you take care of yourself so you don’t burn out.
