In this episode, Richard talks to a woman who is shaking up the often staid legal world in the City of London. Karen Holden is the founder of 'A City Law Firm' – an award-winning practice that offers legal excellence to its clients, alongside a rare environment for staff that includes forty days a year holiday, and a compassionate working culture. The firm stands in contrast to the often highly demanding and all-consuming culture found at some other City law firms. Karen founded her firm as a place where a working mother - such as she is - could succeed and flourish both personally and professionally. She also carved out a niche for her firm in dealing with issues relating to the LGBTQ+ community, surrogacy, and other similar social issues. In the pocast, Karen talks about the challenges that have shaped the way she approaches her work, and the satisfaction she has gained from her achievements.
