In this bold and inspiring episode, we’re joined by the incredible Attorney Heather Reese, a powerhouse who’s redefining what it means to be a lawyer. Not only is she a practicing attorney, but she’s also a plus-size Latina model, breaking barriers and thriving outside the traditional confines of the legal profession.
We dive into her unique journey blending law, creativity, and authenticity, and how she’s built a career that aligns with her values and identity. Heather opens up about the challenges and triumphs of embracing your full self in a profession that often rewards conformity.
Together, we also share the three things we wish we had known as new lawyers, from navigating mistakes while practicing to redefining success on our own terms. Whether you're a law student, new attorney, or seasoned professional thinking about your next chapter, this episode will leave you feeling seen, empowered, and ready to step outside the box.
