In this episode, Sophie discusses with Vanessa Challess, Principal and Founder of Tiger Law, women in law and running an ethical organisation.

Vanessa talks about going against the grain in the field of law - not just being a woman running an organisation but also not naming her law firm with the more ‘traditional’ family name, and how her organisation operates differently to traditional /outdated firms. Vanessa tells the story of how her company got its name and the ethical and charity support that is heavily engrained within what her company stands for.

Vanessa discusses her experience of being in traditional corporate law and shares some of her horror stories - which has shaped who she now is and what she believes law firms should be about (and how they should charge!).

This is a superpowered, passionate conversion about a how one woman is standing in her rebellious power and leads a team who right up there with her.

Sometimes Sophie & our guests get super passionate about their topic and therefore, some “passionate” language might crop up! You might want to wear headphones or make sure young ears aren’t around, and if this is not your cuppa tea, this might not be the podcast for you.
