In this episode, host Sabrina Ruiz-Monroy sits down with Tracy Iglesias, a Senior Legal Analyst at Intermountain Health with over thirty years of experience in the legal profession. From her beginnings as a paralegal in South Florida to her current work supporting one of the largest nonprofit health systems in the Intermountain West, Tracy offers a rare look into the critical and often overlooked careers that power the legal world.
With honesty, humor, and hard-earned insight, Tracy breaks down what non-attorney legal careers really look like, why organization and communication matter as much as legal knowledge, and how mentorship, curiosity, and saying “yes” to new challenges helped her build a long, meaningful career. Whether you’re considering law school, exploring alternative legal roles, or simply curious about what legal work looks like behind the scenes, this episode expands the definition of what it means to work in law.
