[REWIND] How To Take More Risks With Your Law Degree feat. Kyla Denanyoh

Kyla Denanyoh shares her motivation for starting the podcast and
how her legal education has impacted her career. She discusses
the lack of content and conversations surrounding law school
graduates who have not passed or chosen not to take the bar exam,
and her desire to create a space for these individuals. Kyla also
shares her personal journey, from her childhood dream of becoming
a defense attorney to her current role as the operations manager
of a law firm. Join us as we explore the stories of law school
graduates who have forged their own paths to career success.



Creating a Community for Law School Graduates


From Kyla’s desire to create a space for law school graduates who
have not passed or chosen not to take the bar exam, the You Are A
Lawyer podcast was born. The podcast aims to celebrate the
stories of law school graduates who have created their own paths
to career success, regardless of their bar exam status.
"The assumption is usually that you will take the bar exam
until you are victorious. With my mind on these whispered
conversations about not passing or not taking the bar exam, I had a
chat with an attorney friend who was unhappy with their career
choice. They had questions about how I found my career, and I
realized that all law school graduates have the common struggle of
finding career success, regardless of whether they pass the bar
exam," explains Kyla Denanyoh on You Are A Lawyer.

Kyla’s own experience of not passing the bar exam and feeling a
sense of disappointment and uncertainty also motivated the
creation of the podcast. She shares how she initially grieved the
fact that she had not passed the bar exam and didn't want to talk
about law school or the bar. However, Kyla eventually realized
that as a law school graduate, she was still a lawyer. This
realization led her to embrace her law degree and share her
experiences with others. The You Are A Lawyer podcast aims to
provide a platform for law school graduates to share their
stories and inspire others who may be navigating their own paths
to career success.
