Any #OntarioFamilyLawyers have an extra "Ontario Family Law Practice" textbook lying around? Or know where to find one?

Why do elite colleges pump students into the same five industries: law, medicine, tech, investing, and management consulting? For answers, let’s turn to the philosopher René Girard.

@drjenwolkin I quit my job as a lawyer this year to finally explore what my inner child always wanted (film and the arts) and made a short film about this decision. Thank you so much for doing the work you do youtu.be/dLE4r3Hd6Z8

It is never too late to reparent your inner child. It is wholly within our capacity as humans to rewire our brains for wellness.

@amandaperera So important ❤️ I made this short film about reconnecting with your inner child: youtu.be/dLE4r3Hd6Z8

Allow your inner child to feel. Allow your inner child to cry. It is safe for you now to feel all the things you suppressed or couldn’t process, and to validate all the things you couldn’t understand at the time

@Theholisticpsyc I’m a lawyer turned actor/filmmaker. I just made a short film about reconnecting with your inner child youtu.be/dLE4r3Hd6Z8

How to start doing inner child work:

@Suzy_QS @kwetoday So happy you noticed this!

@annarobztweets @kwetoday I like the surprise twist! I like that it was concerned with what the protagonist was missing, as opposed to just them feeling guilty about falling short for others in their life.

In May, I quit my job as a lawyer to start working in film 🎥 I made this 5min short about this decision to leave. If you’ve ever experienced burnout, or questioned all your life decisions, or yearned to be creative… I hope this speaks to you ❤️ youtu.be/dLE4r3Hd6Z8

@courtdoc I’ve met 3 ex-police officers (one with PTSD) in film already - all actors! They said it was so healing to go to a space that encouraged/supported them to feel - after having to shut down their emotions for so long. All of them seem to be thriving in the arts ❤️

@annarobztweets I work with many police officers who went into law enforcement for the right reasons and who now find themselves struggling, metaphorically, to get out of bed. Rekindling the passion is one solution; charting a new path is another. Congratulations, Anna, on finding your way.

@PauletteCoach Thank you so much!

@JenniferturnerG Yes! It’s my first one - it was such an amazing (and cathartic) learning experience 🥰

@annarobztweets This is so beautiful and moving. So powerful too! Is it your first short?! I'm so delighted that you made something this important...can't wait to see what you do next. Congratulations!

@kwetoday Thank you Naomi ❤️

I watched this and absolutely loved it! I love thé ending and can relate to it 100% - we will figure it out. Always.

@glen_hickerson I can't seem to DM you, but my email is anna.toth.robinson@gmail.com 🙂

@glen_hickerson Hi Glen, what an amazing national study and initiative. It would be an honour. I can send you my contact details via DM

@RLangor Thank you so much, Ray ❤️

This. Everything about this. ❤️‍🩹

@1elevatoronly Last thing! While I was deep in the pits about what I should do, a counsellor recommended this book. Using personality type - it identifies strengths and weaknesses, and recommends elements you should look for in a job to maximize self-fulfilment and efficacy.

@1elevatoronly If there’s something you used to love as a kid / teenager - I can’t recommend taking a class or joining a low commitment group enough! (Preferably in person)

@DebraISchafer Thank you so much Debra ❤️

If you, like many, are questioning their “why” and more, watch this short film. Speaks volumes. It’s about #choices, #work, and #life.

@TheWillTruth Thank you so much, Will

Yep. Atdt. Great work @annarobztweets

@JHuggler The profession is so lucky to have you. I love hearing from lawyers who love their jobs and have found a way to thrive amidst all the stress and chaos of the job. Thank you so much for watching and sharing this ❤️

@legalytical Thank you so much Jennifer ❤️ Haha!! Amazing - I will add your name to my list. I want to learn how to apply for grants and secure investors, so I can pay cast / crew properly on my next projects 😉

@robinparker_law @nehachughlaw @ErinDurant42 Thank you so much Robin 🥰

@nehachughlaw @ErinDurant42 Ahhh Neha ❤️ you are a legend (fangirling because I attended CPDs you spoke at) thank you so much for watching
