There are a lot of statistics and stories around how difficult it is to thrive as a woman of color in big law. As a result, so many of us shy away from even trying to “make it” in big law. But we are all about breaking ceilings around here, so I asked Sakina Rasheed Foster, a partner at Haynes and Boone, to tell us about her journey and what it was like to go from law school to associate to partner. In this episode, she tells us the basics and the higher level strategies in thriving as not just a woman of color but as a human being. So many golden nuggets in here on how to thrive as a lawyer.
