Moi?

Posted in Interviews, Thoughts and Musings, tagged , , , on February 10, 2016| Leave a Comment »

Picture 31A life-long dream has at last come true.  I’ve been profiled…in French!  Oui!  Little ol’ moi has made it into the pages of French Canada’s most prestigieux publication for lawyers, Droit-inc!

Yes, I know.  I am sooooo fabuleux.

Merci mille fois – et bisoux – to the vraiment formidable Marie Pâris of Droit-inc for adding immense glamour to my existence.  I feel so chic!

The interview was un peu scandaleuse…but you’ll have to pull out your French dictionaires to read it!

(or, of course, you could just use the Google Chrome browser and hit the “translate” button, but that’s cheating, now isn’t it?)

Therapist Profiling

24DB-PEARSON-master675The People’s Therapist just got profiled in The Financial Times (with a couple other therapists.)

To read the full article, click here.  (Yes, I know, it’s behind a pay wall…but go ahead and subscribe, it’s worth it to read The Financial Times!)  The headline of the piece is “Care from lawyers turned therapists”  and the sub-headline is “Behind a polished exterior can be anxiety, say those who listen to the angst of legal professionals.”

Many thanks to the lovely Emma Jacobs, and Annabel Cook, in London, and the estimable Pascal Perich, in New York City, who took that smashing photo of me with my senior colleague, Simon Dachshund.

Alas, I’ve had to take down my delightful screenshot of the article…the charming Barbara Volkar of the FT’s syndication sales department emailed me, and apparently it violates copyright to reproduce it.  Posting a legally sanctioned reproduction of the article would cost literally thousands of dollars.  And that’s why this post appears a bit truncated.

Sigh…damned lawyers.

Oh poop – here’s a teeny tiny screenshot, just so you can see what it looks like.  It’s hardly even legible.  Let ’em sue me!  They’ll have to tear this moment of glory (a profile in the FT!) from my cold, dead online fingers.

…and here’s what it looked like in print (again, really teeny, to fend off the copyright police…)
