When Old Patterns Resurface: Family, Triggers, and Shadow Work Artwork

The Lawyer Life Podcast

You don't have to look very far to find studies confirming what we all know to be true--the legal profession is suffering.

Countless studies confirm that our attorneys are struggling with substance abuse, mental health challenges, anxiety, and stress at alarming rates.

While these challenges cannot be attributed to any one cause, many of these studies have demonstrated the need for greater support and mentorship in the legal profession.

At the same time, as attorneys, we need to develop better and healthier coping skills to overcome the inevitable challenges of practicing law.

This podcast endeavors to do just that. Get practical skills and tools to change the way you interact with your career and start living differently.

When Old Patterns Resurface: Family, Triggers, and Shadow Work

December 15, 2025 • Autumn Noble

Send me a note!

This time of year has a way of bringing family dynamics, old patterns, and emotional triggers to the surface—often when we least expect it.

In this episode, I talk about what shadow work is, why it’s so deeply transformative, and how it helps us understand the patterns we carry from our families into our relationships, careers, and daily lives.

I also share why I’m offering a free 30-day family and relationship shadow work journey on my other podcast, Lady(ish)—Where Wellness Gets Unfiltered, and how this gentle, reflective work can support you during a season that often feels heavy or emotionally charged.

This is an invitation to slow down, reflect, and approach your inner world with more compassion and awareness.
