Removing The Filter with Carolynn Conron
In this empowering episode of the Really Authentic Women Podcast, we're thrilled to welcome a truly remarkable guest, Carolynn Conron. Carolynn is not only a distinguished criminal defence lawyer but also a fervent advocate for social causes, most notably her participation in this year's Fight To End Homelessness. One of the most compelling aspects of our discussion revolves around Carolynn's personal belief that being a woman is, in fact, an advantage in the legal field. She argues that her ability to relate to others and possess less bias allows her to approach cases with a unique perspective, ultimately fostering a more empathetic and effective legal practice. At the heart of Carolynn's message is the idea that authenticity involves shedding societal filters and following one's heart. This episode is not just a conversation; it's a call to embrace our true selves, break free from conventional expectations, and pursue our passions with unapologetic authenticity.
