Julie Carter is an attorney, advocate, and consultant who works mostly with education rights and disability law. She has always worked hard and had a desire to learn. Combine that with the fact that she comes from a family of attorneys, and it is no surprise that she followed a similar path. In this episode, Julie and Rob discuss her family life, personal choices, and the path that led her to law school at Tulane University in Louisiana, to eventually getting married and becoming a mother. Her path was not easy. While at Tulane, Julie experienced tragedy when she lost a close friend to death by #suicide. Julie was forced to face her grief and take a step back from school for a moment. Slowing down was a foreign concept to her, so it was certainly a challenge. It also came with a cost. That season of life shaped her and taught her how to strategize in new ways to “work differently, not harder” as she says. She endured intense grief and experienced setbacks, but the moment she picked herself up and decided it was time to move forward, nothing slowed her down. That was only the beginning. While driving down the road with her mother one weekday morning, she received a “compliment” that would drastically reshape her life. She has an amazing story, and her mother has an interesting way of giving complements. Listen and find out. We hope you enjoy this episode. Make sure to like, rate, review, and tell someone about it.
