The Resilient Lawyer with Jeena Cho
Business:Careers
In this episode, I am excited to have Marcus Shute, Jr. on to talk about staying true to yourself and what makes you unique as a lawyer, as compared to the "rubber-stamped" version of what a lawyer should look like.
Shute is a sports and entertainment attorney at the Shute Law Office in Nashville, TN. He enjoys leveraging his first-hand experiences and acquired knowledge of the law to shape the legacy of his clients, and his passion for providing legal services for the sports and entertainment industries stems from his love of playing sports and musical instruments.
Topics Covered
What obstacles he has faced based solely on his appearance, and instances where he has been pressured to alter his appearance or conform. How owning who you are can turn some people off to you, but will help bring you closer to your tribe of those that will be drawn to you. Choosing to enjoy the work you do and shaping your practice in a way that gives you a sense of contentment. How recent tragedies inspired him to overcome some of the intrinsic prejudices his looks can garner in a courtroom and add criminal law to his practice.Learn more and connect with Marcus at:
