The podcast is a platform to discuss the invaluable lessons learned in the early stages of their legal careers, law firm culture, and the importance of well-being in the profession.
Building on the recent success of the YRes National Conference held in November 2024, which sparked crucial discussions around well-being, mistakes, and career progression, this podcast amplifies those conversations. Matthew, known for his expertise in financial remedy cases and his pioneering work in developing Coram Chambers’ wellbeing programme, was recognized as the “Wellbeing Champion” at the Resolution Awards in 2023.

The episode starts with an engaging icebreaker where Matthew and Trevor reflect on past mistakes made early in their careers. This candid approach sets the stage for a deeper exploration of mentorship, diversity, inclusion, and the practical guidance necessary for navigating the complexities of law.
