Despite my innate reservations about this type of book in general, this one in particular actually proved to be a clear, thoughtful, insightful and most importantly actionable set of recommendations and exercises to help detangle the mess of emotions related to being a lawyer, staying a lawyer, and/or exploring other life options. I would indeed recommend this book to all my lawyer peeps who might be interested in actionable ways to gain clarity around their career -- present and future.

This book is great for non-lawyers also.

A good workbook with lots of exercises, but no groundbreaking advice for someone looking to make a big change.
