Q: How do you navigate the balance between doing things that are interesting to you and things that are urgent or necessary?

Q: Could you walk us through your Beth acronym a little bit more?
Brevity helps you land points faster; Elephant in the room means acknowledging what the audience might be noticing; Truth is the core of relatable, authentic storytelling; Humanity is about using relatable, real emotions to connect.

Q: What advice would you give to aspiring general counsels, especially in the charity sector?
Know your strengths and pursue roles that align with them. If you're strong in leadership, business strategy, and interpersonal influence, a GC path can be a great fit. Start with a strengths assessment, then seek opportunities that leverage those strengths rather than forcing you into a role that plays to your weaknesses.
