Now she’s the Director of Alumni and International Career Services for Columbia Law School and guides other law grads as they reinvent. Join CoveyClub founder, Lesley Jane Seymour, as she speaks with Alvarez about her unique ability to understand the barriers (financial, identity) and how to transfer a lawyer’s unique communication, analytical, and personal skills into finding their real bliss. “Transitions happen at all levels,” she says, “five years or coming close to retirement. You take one step a day.”
