Is the legal profession making you “thin-skinned”?

Lawyers face high-stakes decisions, relentless deadlines, criticism, uncertainty, and overwhelming workloads. What if some of the very traits that make lawyers successful also make them more vulnerable to stress?

In "Thin-Skinned: Why Lawyers Are So Low in Resilience and the New Science That Can Help", Dr. Larry Richard and Dr. D’Arcy Lyness explore more than 30 years of research on lawyer personality and resilience. They also offer evidence-based strategies to help lawyers manage stress, build resilience, and improve well-being.

With more than 50 practical self-improvement strategies, Thin-Skinned is a field guide for lawyers who want to navigate pressure more effectively and build a healthier, more sustainable career.

Because resilience isn't just about getting through the hard days. It's about learning how to thrive despite them.
