Dear Unhappy Lawyer:

I discovered a startling fact while doing the research for my book, The Unhappy Lawyer.  Did you know that 40,000 lawyers leave the practice of law every year?   

The question is, how come you’re not one of them?   

It’s not for lack of information. You can easily find scads of career books, assessments, courses, and counselors.  Perhaps you’ve taken advantage of some of this stuff.  Maybe you came up with some ideas, did some exploring, and yet…you’re still stuck. 

So then you have to wonder, how do those 40,000 get out every year?  What am I missing??  

Well, I’ve figured out what it is. And I’d like to share it with you, in detail, in a never-before-offered teleclass this fall. 

You can change your life. I’m not kidding. 

But before I explain exactly what I’m talking about… 

Let's Go for a Little Swim

This isn’t the first time you’ve thought about leaving the law, is it? My clients describe the journey as jumping into a vast ocean with the tiny island known as “The Land of Alternative Careers” off in the distance shrouded in a cloud of fog.

"The 7 Secrets to Getting the Heck out of the Law and into an Amazing Life"

For the first and only time, I’m going to crack the code behind my book, The Unhappy Lawyer, in this one-time 5-part home study course.

Here’s how this came about:

I recently wrote down the significant shifts I made each time I’ve made a career transition (I've made several career shifts in my lifetime!). 

I also thought about my clients and what it took for them to propel themselves out of their old, unsatisfying lives into new incredible adventures.  I realized that I and my clients had exactly 7 shifts in common.

How would your life (and career) change if you knew what the shifts were and how to incorporate them into your life right now?  (And it wouldn’t be so bad to skip some of the angst, hardship, and delays I experienced either!)

It would be an incredible advantage.

You’d be creating the work and life of your dreams.

Just telling you what the 7 secrets are wouldn’t help.  I’ve tried that and it just leaves people scratching their heads.  What I want is for you to understand not only what they are but exactly how they work so that you can leapfrog past this unhappy life you’re leading now into a world of possibilities.

I’m not kidding here. I just talked to a client today who had this exact experience. Her world has opened up because she now has an understanding of these principles.  She’s excited, energized, and there’s no telling what amazing things she is going to end up doing.

If you want that kind of passion and momentum and you’re really ready for it (don’t bother signing up if you’re just tire-kicking because you won’t get it, trust me), then you have no choice…you simply must join me for this one-time-only home study course.

Now let me give you all of the home study course details…

"The 7 Secrets to Getting the Heck out of the Law and into an Amazing Life"

In this home study course you will get:

• The 7 secrets of lawyers who successfully transition out of the law into work they love that pays the bills

• How to expect and receive next steps in your life (I’ll give you a hint: this home study course isn’t about creating the “perfect plan.” It’s about how to move forward even when you’re not sure what to do next.)

• How to get past the paralyzing notion that work you love and a good income are mutually exclusive (they’re really not)

• How to tap into your intuition and let it guide you as you explore career possibilities

• What to do with that pesky internal voice that likes to stop you in your tracks as you’re trying to make changes

• How to discover your God-given talents and the absolute necessity of using them in your new career

• Why your friends and family can’t be trusted with helping you make this move

• The power of prayer (moving beyond “wishing for something” and making a decision to have something)

• How to get past the mind-numbing fears that have been holding you back ever since you realized you wanted out of the law but have been terrified (and powerless) to do anything about it

Man, that’s a lot of stuff!  And I know some of it is a tad controversial—all the better. It’s time for me to get real about what’s worked for me and my clients. I’ve been wanting to do that for a long time.

Mark 2009 on your calendar as the turning point in your life because you were shown how to create the work and life of your dreams….

I thought quite a bit about how much to charge for admission into this home study course.  After all, what I’ll be sharing in these sessions is life-transforming. 

I could charge a lot, since what I’m sharing in this course is typically what I share with my one-on-one clients.  I only work with a handful of folks and the price of admission is steep. 

But I want to get this information out to as many miserable lawyers as I can.  And I know for a lot of you this will be the first time you’ve worked with me.  So I want to make this offer an irresistible one.

So after thinking about it pretty hard, I’ve decided on an investment of only $297.  It’s an incredible deal, considering the amount and value of the content you’re going to get. 

Weigh this one for a minute—go back to living “a life of quiet desperation” or create the work and life you want? It would be foolish to pass up on this incredible offer.

Monica has helped lawyers change their lives…

“[I came to you because] I felt like I needed an outside perspective, someone to come in who had my interests, I mean literally my interests at heart—not what they thought was best for me, but what I wanted.  I wanted someone to encourage me to do what I wanted, and help me figure out how to get there…Now I’m doing what I want to do, and I’m happy.”  -Aharon Hill, commercial real estate lawyer-turned-jewelry designer, www.KaleoDesigns.com, Atlanta, GA

“Monica brings you out of the dark with your ideas.  She forces you to think, ‘Am I committed to this?  And if so, when?’  I’ve felt a concreteness and a hope that I haven’t experienced in awhile.” -Marsha Johnson, corporate commercial litigator-turned-independent filmmaker, God-And-All-O-Wee Productions, Brooklyn, NY

“With Monica’s encouragement, I was finally able to believe in myself enough to completely change the face of my career, from criminal law to working at a nonprofit where I use my legal education to make a difference in the world.  I still have many dreams I want to accomplish and maybe I haven’t found that pot of gold at the end of the rainbow, but I am finally on that rainbow and the clouds are gone.  Quit complaining to your lawyer friends who are as stuck as you—it isn’t going to help you find a new job.  You should call Monica.”  - Criminal lawyer-turned-nonprofit employee, the Great Northwest

If this approach worked for me and my clients (who run the gamut, by the way, in terms of years of practice, type of practice, alternative careers they pursue, etc.), then it will work for you too.

Imagine…

▪ Waking up excited to see the coming day and all that it has to offer

▪ To be fully and delightfully engaged in your work and to know that what you do has purpose, meaning, and impact

▪ To be surrounded by colleagues who support and challenge you and make you laugh

▪ To make a good living that allows you to support yourself, as well as your family

▪ To have the kind of balance—that allows you to work, spend time with family and friends, and take care of yourself—that you never thought possible

▪ To be unbelievably blessed and wondering in amazement at the work and life you’ve created for yourself

It’s all there waiting for you. Let me show you how to uncover it.

That’s what I’m living now, and that’s what my clients are living too.

How about you?

Here's What You Get:

1. Digital MP3 recordings of the sessions. You can listen to them online or download them to your iPod or other MP3 player
2. Digital PDF transcripts of the sessions. We all learn in different ways and lots of lawyers tell me that they love having something they can read as a supplement.  You can use the transcripts to reinforce the concepts or find a particular concept that we covered during the sessions. 

I invite you to join me!
