by Melanie Griffin July 19, 2020

Spread Your Sunshine Founder Melanie S. Griffin, Esq. was recently the Featured Guest on Episode 14 of Bill Umansky's The Lawman's Lounge Podcast. Entitled "Does Happiness Lead to Success?", Melanie reflected on finding your true happiness, how to unapologetically pursue what brings you joy, and the importance of overcoming hurdles when on a path to pivot your career. Using personal anecdotes, Melanie explained how she transitioned from being a full-time Equity Shareholder and Office Managing Partner to now working Of Counsel while running Spread Your Sunshine.

The turning point in Melanie's decision was when she realized that while she enjoyed her career as a lawyer, her unique skill set is helping others overcome their fear of failure through mentorship. Speaking from her personal experience pivoting careers as well as from the stories of people who have contacted her about their need for a change, Melanie addressed how to move past the challenges associated with a new career venture. In the end, while there will be "failures" along the way, following your passion is what fosters true joy and brings out your best self.
