Jordana is a Yale Law School graduate and is the Founder and CEO of JC Coaching and Consulting and an Adjunct Professor of Law at Fordham University School of Law. Jordana’s journey is a story of intense burnout and finding the passion that was always within her. Jordana is a guru of positive lawyering, taking fellow law students and Lawyers to move from fear to flourishing!
Jordana and I started before Yale Law School, where she went through the why behind the Law School decision. She wanted to do something bigger and better in her life, and being a type A person, decided that Law School, and pursuing to be as a Federal Prosecutor would be the path to take. Entering her first year, Jordana would work tirelessly to be at the top of her class and gain those prestigious summer jobs.
When then spoke about the various internships and jobs that Jordana held leading up to the turning point in her career. She would chase the shiny gold stars of legal prestigious, but at the cost of her mental and physical health, enduring stress and anxiety all for goals that she came to realize she would never reach. After working as a clerk for two years, she finally decided enough was enough, and turned to the academic side of the Law.
The sparks of passion would fly as Jordana explored the world of positive psychology, laying down the foundations for her future Positive Lawyering class, which she teaches to Law Students today, and her Coaching and Consulting company.
Jordana’s insights on Positive Lawyering offered an overwhelming amount of wisdom for Lawyers and Law Students, living a life guided not by your fears but your values. She would focus on perfectionism, well-being, and many other topics to further show her unbelievable expertise in the space.
Jordana is a well-known member of the legal community, and this conversation is one you do not want to miss, as anyone can take away wisdom from Jordana that can guide them for the rest of their career!
