What is a book (or series) that is so good that once you are finished, you just want to start it again? A series that is like greeting an old friend; that tastes like the first bite of dessert when you read the first page. #books #readingforpleasure #

Delighted to speak at the @FOLA_tweets Plenary last week, on behalf of the Law Practice Program @TMULPP!
Thank you to representatives from @LawLakehead, @TorontoMet, and @LawSocietyLSO for updating Ontario’s county and district law presidents today on the new pathways to the profession.

If you want others to grow your pie, offer them a piece. Don’t expect others to invest in you, when you aren’t invested in them.

Loss, love, and law are the themes of this podcast, as I discuss navigating infertility and grief while managing a busy litigation practice.
Penultimate episode of the podcast for season 2 and it’s a corker! We spoke with @FariyaW who is a Canadian lawyer with 2 children born 4.5 months apart. To understand how, you’ve got to listen! #fertility #infertilityinthecity

This is a picture of some - not all - of the fertility drugs I injected into my body over 5 years. #ttc #fertility #fertilityjourney #law #legalprofession #parenting #motherhood #loss

The most important thing we can do is be kind to one another.

p.s. This story is one of hope, loss, grief, and love. Many people struggle in the darkness of infertility. My partner and I are hoping to find the right forum to publish our story and share some light. If anyone in our network has contacts, please let me know! 💜

The next time I feel nervous about a tough negotiation, I am going to remind myself of today, when my one-year-old cried because I wouldn't let her eat mushed chicken out of the sole of my shoe. #parenting
