The State Bar of Michigan’s January On Balance Podcast explores the stress and wellness issues that can come along with jobs in which you “aren’t allowed to have a bad day.”
Like doctors or police officers, if attorneys aren’t doing their best, someone could get hurt, and the weight of that responsibility can lead to mental health or wellness issues when attorneys, judges, or law students don’t have the support they need.
Molly Ranns and JoAnn Hathaway welcome Tom Grden to the podcast to discuss the many resources available to legal professionals that can help them deal with such stress and continue performing at their best.
Tom Grden is clinical case manager for the State Bar of Michigan’s Lawyers & Judges Assistance Program.
The interview is available on the Legal Talk Network.
