Did you know that alcohol affects women differently than men? Although men are statistically more likely to drink, women absorb more alcohol due to differences in chemistry and body structure. This makes women more vulnerable to the effects of excessive alcohol use.

Discover more about the effects of alcohol on women's health through this Harvard article.

Professional Development Program (PDP)


Most lawyers are constantly striving to find ways to improve and reach their highest potential, whether that means improving practice skills, profitability, the integration of work and personal life pursuits, seeking a higher level of confidence and overall well-being, improving professional or personal relationships or some other way. A certified professional coach is someone trained to partner with a person to maximize full personal and professional potential and reach that person’s desired results. To learn more about how a certified professional coach might be of value to you, please visit the State Bar website at CERTIFIED PROFESSIONAL COACHING.
