Welcome back for season 3 of Legal Well-Being in Action! We’re excited to announce our new campaign on Well-Being: A Deeper Dive. For 2023, we will be focusing on the journey that involves the process of looking inward, taking an honest self-inventory of our strengths and challenges, wiring, rewiring, framing, and reframing our inner thoughts about how we see ourselves, how we see the world and how we respond to challenges to our well-being! For our first episode, we are joined by William Slease, the Professional Practice Program Director for the State Bar of New Mexico. In addition to his duties at the State Bar, he serves as an adjunct professor at the University of New Mexico School of Law where he teaches 1L Lab and Ethics, and serves as a practice skills evaluator for the evidence-trial practice skills course. Beside him is Ms. Pamela Moore, the Program Director of the Professional Program’s Group, and a member of the NM Well-Being Committee. Ms. Moore will be exploring her thoughts will Mr. Slease on how she envisions well-being as an inside outside job that we often over look when we’re trying to get eight hour of sleep at night, eat right, or simply hit the gym in an effort to take care of the ‘outside’ version of us. Well-Being goes deeper than we can imagine and sometimes deeper than we may consider in our lives.
