"There's one thing I hear over and over, from lawyers at all levels of success: 'I feel like I'm barely holding it together, but I can't let anyone see that.'" If this is a sentiment feels familiar, it may be time to think more about the relationship between mental health and the effective profession of law. In "Five Ways Lawyers Can Lead by Example: Promoting Mental Well-Being as a Strength, Not a Stigma," Scott R. Mote offers practical ways and methods to normalize proactive discussion about mental health, with the goal of fostering healthier environments and better lawyers. We thank Scott for his insight, and for reminding us that "lawyers who lead with clarity, ethics, and empathy are the future of this profession, and mental health is part of that equation."

Who shapes tomorrow? The people willing to see things differently.

On Friday, the CBA’s EAGLE Group visited the CMA at the Pizzuti to experience Tavares Strachan’s The Day Tomorrow Began, an immersive exhibit that erases the line between the conceptual and the material while exploring whose stories get told, who gets seen and how new ideas change our understanding of the world. It was a fitting experience for EAGLE, a network that connects experienced attorneys, expands their perspectives and helps connect Columbus' legal community beyond the office.

A big thank you to everyone who joined us and to the Columbus Museum of Art for another great reason to experience art right here in Columbus.

"As in music, so in life." Joshua Cartee sits down with Peter Georgiton in the latest edition of "Lawyers with Artistic License." A lifelong violinist, Peter picked up the instrument from his bluegrass-fiddling father and his since passed it down to his daughters. And although he has developed a thriving legal practice managing commercial and tort litigation and insurance coverage, it is music that has provided him with "a lifelong passion, connection to family members, and valuable life experiences." We thank Joshua for spotlighting Peter, and for continuing to weave together the worlds of art and law.
