If You Ask Me
Welcome to the If You Ask Me podcast, hosted by Hannah Bradshaw and Sarah Lyons, two former employment lawyers turned coaches and the co founders of BlueSky.
This podcast is about the big conversations we wish were happening more often. We talk to women in leadership positions across law firms, both those who have been through it themselves and those who bring fresh insights into how the profession can evolve. Our aim is to create a space that is uplifting and practical, where law meets life and possibility opens up.
New episodes released weekly.
If You Ask Me
Motherhood, progression and stepping into partnership in law with Rebecca Jason
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this episode of If You Ask Me, we are joined by Rebecca Jason, a partner in the Banking and Finance team at Winckworth Sherwood.
During the conversation, Rebecca shares how motherhood reshaped her confidence, judgement and approach to what mattered most in her career. She also shares how a partnership opportunity first arose while she was on maternity leave, how that possibility took shape over time, and what it was like stepping into her first partner role while adjusting to life with two young children.
The discussion explores how ambition, progression and sustainability can coexist over the long term, even when career paths do not follow an expected or linear route.
