You Are A Lawyer: Take Risks and Change Careers in Law

Caroline Vickers, a Howard University School of Law graduate, discusses her motivation to attend law school and why she is not the prenup queen.

Show Notes

Caroline Vickers became a coach for repeat and first-time bar exam takers.  After Caroline Vickers started coaching her friends who were taking the bar exam, Caroline Vickers noticed that multiple people had the same issues with their mindset.  After realizing that the confidence and mindset of repeat bar exam takers was lacking, Caroline Vickers created Bar Prep Champs and incorporated group coaching for participants.
