In this 90-minute webinar, Dr. Larry Richard will share key ideas from his forthcoming book, Thin-Skinned: Why Lawyers Are So Low in Resilience, and the New Science That Can Help. Dr. Richard will explain why escalating change poses a threat to lawyer well-being, and why we cope so poorly with criticism, rejection, and other forms of stress. More importantly, he'll share with us four evidence-based strategies that any lawyer can deploy to raise their resilience and promote their own well-being.

Participants will learn:

• The little-known but critically important psychological and neurological consequences of uncertainty, and why it affects lawyers worse than almost anyone else

• The 7 atypical personality traits that most lawyers share, and why understanding them is so important to our well-being

• Why skepticism is a two-edged sword for lawyers

• The one single restorative practice that anyone can adopt to increase their well-being
