Many professionals reach a point where they must decide between the security of employment and the freedom of entrepreneurship. But what happens when that decision involves juggling two entirely different careers — and family life?
Elizabeth Yang tackled this dilemma head-on by leveraging her engineering background, legal education, and business acumen to forge her path. After experiencing the volatility of large law firms and the strain of long hours away from her children, she launched her law firm, Yang Law Offices, and simultaneously opened multiple indoor playgrounds. Elizabeth shares how she eventually decided to focus on the higher-margin legal business, how her four-year divorce led her to shift into family law, and how virtual assistants from her second company, OptiNizers, helped her scale efficiently.
Tune in to this episode of the Smart Business Revolution Podcast as John Corcoran interviews Elizabeth Yang, CEO and Founder of Yang Law Offices and Partner at OptiNizers, about her multifaceted entrepreneurial journey. Elizabeth discusses how she built a law firm and indoor playground business simultaneously, what inspired her pivot to family law, and how her divorce shaped her practice. She also shares how remote teams can drive growth and her recent foray into local government.
