This week, weâre joined by Kristine Cherekâformer big law associate, general counsel, partner at a regional firm, and law professorâwho now uses her voice to advocate for gender equality in the workplace. With over 20 years of experience navigating the legal world, Kristine has seen it allâand sheâs not afraid to talk about it.
In this episode, Kristine shares her journey through the many roles sheâs held in the legal field and why, after decades of watching progress for women in law move at a glacial pace, she decided it was time to tread loudly. Now an author and advocate, Kristine brings real talk to the table about power structures, inequality, and how women in the profession can support one another while building fulfilling careers.
We also dive into her bestselling book, Tread Loudly: Call Out the Bullshit and Fight for Equality in the Workplace, a sharp, funny, and empowering memoir that blends candid stories with hard-earned wisdom for the next generation of women lawyers.
