Immigration attorney Elizabeth Garvish joins The Wellness Esquire Podcast to discuss lawyer burnout, emotional resilience, and the concept of the stress “refractory period” — how long it takes to recover after pressure or overwhelm.
In conversation with Ariella Cohen Coleman, Elizabeth shares how lawyers get stuck in cycles of people-pleasing and constant output, and why reconnecting to your inner voice is essential for breaking free. They explore how greater awareness of your thoughts, emotions, and body can help shorten recovery time and build real resilience.
A practical conversation on reducing burnout, improving clarity, and creating a more sustainable way to succeed in law.
