The Resilient Lawyer with Jeena Cho
Business:Careers
In this episode, I am excited to have on Allison Holzman to continue our parenting series on her journey balancing her career in family law and her 2 sons as a single-by-choice mother.
Allison is an attorney at Weinberger Divorce and Family Law Group, a midsize firm in New Jersey. She has been practicing for nearly 18 years and has focused exclusively on family law since 2002. Allison is also a single mom by choice to two adorable boys, ages 2 and 3 months, Noah and Jordan who make sure her life is never boring. When she isn’t running after her boys, she enjoys pilates, Netflix, and warm chocolate chip cookies!
Topics Covered
Being a single mom by choice as a practicing attorney and the steps one would take in starting down a single mom by choice path. Single mom does not just mean get some sperm, Allison goes into the “online dating”-like process of finding a donor and the many facets of control she had in deciding the best candidate. Strategies on coping with loss if pregnancies and dealing with the waiting and rising out of pocket costs.Find the 1-hour webinar on relaxing the thinking mind at jeenacho.com/podcastwebinar
