Emily Hickman has always had, as she
says, a “deep care” for humanity and strongly desires
to contribute positively to the world around her. As a
lawyer-turned-intimacy-and-sexuality-coach, she is determined to
help others better connect with themselves and the world around
them, which will — among other things — help
them be better at their jobs.
On this episode of The Lawyers Weekly Show, host Jerome Doraisamy
speaks with lawyer turned intimacy and sexuality coach Emily
Hickman about how and why she entered the legal profession, her
desire to do good in the world, the ups and downs she has
experienced in changing vocational direction, and the path that led
her to upskilling as a coach for intimacy and sexuality.
Ms Hickman also outlines the parallels between her former career in
law and the work she now does, what an intimacy coaching
relationship looks like, creating connections where people actually
feel seen, whether lawyers will be more willing to be open about
the various forms of intimacy in the future, why it is so important
for such professionals to be open-minded to as to better serve
clients, and how individuals grow when they venture into the
unknown.
