18: Demetra Liggins, Preparing to Enter Corporate America and Developing Realistic Expectations

In this episode of Topping the Curve I interview Demetra Liggins about Corporate America. Demetra is a partner at a big law firm and co-owner of Corporate Homie, a business and podcast that she started with her twin sister.

Throughout the episode Demetra talks about key aspects that future attorneys should keep in mind when entering the corporate world:

-       Taking initiative and pushing past any fears you may have 

-       Having an open heart and a coachable spirit

-       Setting priorities and using that to guide your decision-making in the workplace

-       How to make sure you are getting good work and getting noticed

-       Code-switching and being yourself in the workplace

Demetra goes into depth about all of the above and how she achieved her current success in the corporate sphere.
