Women in Environmental Law: Practical Advice You'll Actually Use
Women have become more prominent and influential in environmental law. What better time to celebrate and recognize women lawyers than during Women’s History Month?
On this episode of the Bracewell Environmental Law Monitor, host Taylor Stuart is joined by three guests who focus their practice on environmental issues: Christine Wyman, senior counsel at Chevron, along with Brittany Pemberton, partner, and Sara Burgin, of counsel, in the environment, lands and resources practice at Bracewell.
Tune in to hear Taylor, Christine, Brittany and Sara reflect on the contributions of women to the environmental legal profession. They also share their personal career journeys and offer practical advice for other female lawyers.
Episode Highlights
[00:00] Introduction
[05:42] Building Connections in the Workplace: The way to connect with colleagues and clients is by sharing things about yourself and being authentic.
[11:26] Asking for More Information: Although it’s difficult to admit you don’t know something, it’s better to say so early on rather than wait until it’s too late.
[20:38] The Importance of Grace: It’s just as important to give yourself grace as it is to have grace for others.
[27:56] Having a Niche vs. Being a Generalist: Having a niche provides value, but being able to apply those skills more broadly is also useful.
[31:12] Impostor Syndrome: Many women lawyers struggle with impostor syndrome. Don’t buy into it! Trust yourself, and let other people trust you.
