How To Create an Empire of Freedom with Your Law Degree feat. Aman Costigan

Aman Costigan runs a wellness business, is a partner at Shores
Jardine, is a wife, #toddlermom, real estate investor, and master
prioritizer. Aman acknowledges that finding time for work and
personal life can be challenging, especially for an actively
practicing lawyer. Listen as Aman explains why she advocates for
lawyers and their mental health and why she is creating an Empire
of Freedom.



Aman Costigan emphasizes the importance of integrating yoga and
wellness practices into daily life beyond just the confines of a
yoga mat. Aman acknowledges that lawyers constantly move, do, and
multitask and seldom have the time or space for a traditional
yoga practice. Therefore, Aman started offering easy yoga
breathing techniques and other activities that can be done
anytime and anywhere. The goal is to make yoga accessible and
adaptable to fit into busy lifestyles through her business,
Beyond Yoga for Lawyers. 


Additionally, Aman Costigan mentions that she’s given multiple
speeches about work-life balance but questions whether the term
"balance" is appropriate. Life is about prioritizing!
Specifically, finding ways to practice law while pursuing
personal desires and goals. Instead of trying to escape from the
demands of a legal career, Aman encourages individuals to take
control of their lives and improve their lives by prioritizing.


Since creating Beyond Yoga for Lawyers, Aman has added pillars to
their wellness practices, building their "empire of
freedom." She has been invited to speak at women's
lawyers groups, where Aman shares her journey and provides
guidance on achieving personal and professional fulfillment.
During these talks, Aman Costigan also incorporates easy yoga
breathing and other activities to provide practical tools for
well-being. It is evident that Aman has incorporated yoga into
every aspect of her life because even her husband, Tom, practiced
yoga with her. Although the two no longer teach classes together,
Aman relishes their time teaching and training other lawyers.
Aman and Tom met in law school.



Overall, the episode explores the concept of work-life balance
and suggests the idea of work-life integration as a more suitable
term. It highlights the challenges of balancing work and personal
life but also emphasizes the importance of prioritizing personal
interests and finding ways to integrate them into one's
professional life.
