Attorneys may be experts in the courtroom, but what happens when the traits that make them successful at work become roadblocks in their personal lives? In this eye-opening episode of Attorneys Are Human Too, hosts Steve Wallace and Celena Muzic reunite with therapist Michael Berger to pull back the curtain on the emotional and mental toll of the legal profession. From the pressure to maintain a tough exterior to the challenges of switching off “lawyer mode” at home, this candid conversation explores the hidden struggles that many attorneys—and high-achieving professionals—face behind closed doors.
Together, they dive into the impact of workaholism, the struggle for emotional connection, and the stigma surrounding therapy in the legal field. Steve shares personal insights about his own journey with balancing professional ambition and personal relationships, while Michael breaks down why so many professionals find success in their careers but struggle at home. Plus, the debut of the new segment, Ask an Attorney Anything, tackles the modern-day debate on financial equality in relationships. Raw, revealing, and even a little humorous—this episode proves that even the sharpest legal minds need an outlet beyond the office.
