Episode description
Many lawyers suffer in silence. As many as one in five lawyers is a problem drinker-twice the national rate. Substance Use Disorder can have devastating effects on a lawyer's career and personal life.
Meet Tara Trantham...she is a successful lawyer who lives with a mental health condition that led to alcohol misuse in an attempt to self-medicate. Tara is now on a mission to reach out and help her fellow lawyers. She is telling her story so that people know it's ok to not be ok!
Her primary goal in being transparent is to encourage others to speak out when they need help. She would love to end the stigma and normalize discussions around mental health.
Way to go Tara!
