Awesome! Thanks so much for creating this bowl & sharing here. Also, thank you for the single-single disclaimer because I don't think I can handle talking to one more single-ish person!!

"It's complicated" thank you for adding that!! I've had enough complication in my love life, thank you!! LOL

Well come on over to the Black Singles Bowl and engage with us Single-Single folks. Perhaps you may find some meaningful connections or thought provoking conversations within.

It might be more impactful if it’s an open Bowl, are you reviewing every request to join?

So about quiet quitting, at another job I was in I felt I was getting more and more tacked onto my job and picking up the slack of everyone else.

He told me, “But you’re so much better at it.” Looking back, I think the whole team was quiet quitting and he was resting on me and so I real quit. What are ya’lls thoughts? Have you ever done it?

In the past, lawyer wellness and lawyer discipline/character fitness for bar applicants have existed in silos. I’d like to finally form a bridge between lawyer disciple and lawyer wellness and focus on prevention. When we think of lawyer discipline, we automatically think of outrageous behavior like stealing money. Those are extreme. The common cases are too stressed out and forgetting deadlines or death of a loved one and not having time to call clients back. Cont’d
