ÜBER DIESE EPISODE
In this episode, we explore what it’s really like to move between the self-employed and employed Bar. Two barristers - one who went from self-employed to employed and back again, and another who transitioned into an employed role - share their experiences and motivations.
We discuss why barristers choose to make these shifts, the value of diversifying your skills, and the practical differences in how your practice operates. The conversation also touches on confidence; how it can be affected by change and how to rebuild it.
A candid and insightful look at navigating career transitions at the Bar, with helpful reflections on what to gain and what to watch out for.
