Alcohol in Canada is, in many ways, a part of the culture of the legal profession — woven into everything from client events and firm celebrations to late-night strategy sessions and informal networking. While it can be seen as a way to relax or connect, alcohol use in the profession can also conceal deeper issues and contribute to unhealthy coping mechanisms.
In this honest and thought-provoking session, Andy and Michèle — both lawyers and members of International Lawyers in Alcoholics Anonymous — share their personal paths to recovery and highlight early warning signs of problematic drinking. Take some time to view this program and learn practical strategies for supporting yourself, a colleague, or a loved one who may be facing challenges with alcohol.
