- It happens to the best of us. Getting fired from your job is not fun, but it can be a blessing in disguise. In this video, I share my experience of being FIRED from my FIRST ever lawyer job. I talk about how I felt mentally and emotionally and what I did next, including reflecting on what I want out of a legal career. Join me, as I spill the tea, and find out how I bounced back from that difficult moment in my life.
About me //
Hi there, my name is Mithea and I'm a lawyer from Toronto, Ontario, Canada. I share videos about my journey to becoming a licensed lawyer. My goal is to demystify the legal journey, making it more accessible for you to pursue with confidence!
CZcams has been suggesting many smaller channels lately. Glad they suggested yours. Many can relate to the blessing it can be when a door unexpectingly closes.
Hi! Thank you so much fir making this video :) I got let go from my job and like you, for me the endless possibilities are both exciting and nerve-wracking
Thank you so much for sharing your story❤ I had a very similar experience last year. I was forced out of a job that I was stressed at solely because it afforded me the little luxuries I had. I was very slow to tell people what had happened because I was so ashamed and embarrassed. I looked at it as a reflection of my competence and skills. Fast forward to now, I’m in a much better environment and role that aligns with my interests. My leadership praises me often and I just feel like I get to contribute in ways that show off my expertise. I’m just wholly in a better place with myself.
I thought I knew what to expect from this video. I didn't. Really sincere and encouraging content. I just subscribed. Looking forward to seeing the rest of your journey.
thanks so much Andrew!
hey Mithea! Thank you so much for your vulnerability in sharing your experience. I really admire your courage to explore your other areas of interest during your time off, and to share how you grew during that time with us. It sounds like getting fired was a blessing in disguise in many ways and I'm so happy to hear you're in a better place than you started. I can't wait to see what's next in store for you! Also hi from a fellow Toronto creator 😊
Thanks for being here Audrey! A part of me was scared/nervous for being this candid but I felt like it was an important story to tell. I would've liked to see more relatable and honest discussions about being fired when I was going through it and I hope I can provide that for others. Also yaay to the youtube algos for connecting us Toronto creators 😊
Girl this is me right now. 6 years in my profession and 1 year with the company that just let me go. The shame is REAL. Thank you so much, this has given me hope in a time that i've felt hopeless. They've given me a decent enough severance to be ok for a few months, but the lack of direction is scary. This gives me some reassurance!
I felt that way too! Scared but also excited because the opportunities felt endless? You got this!
Liked and subscribed, will support you and your channel 🙏
Subscribed because of your video! Thank you so much!
Thank you for sharing your story Mithea. This is definitely uplifting 😊
Loved this raw and honest conversation. You've got a new subscriber in me!
Great advice for bouncing back in any field 👏🏾
Happy to hear that :)
This takes a lot of courage, thanks for sharing.
1:15 I've had the same thoughts during the first couple days of articling when I just felt so inadequate. The imposter syndrome faded within a week after I learned the ropes.
Thank you for being here! I can confirm one year in the imposter syndrome is less, it ebbs and flows. But I like to tell myself that I'm feeling this way because I care about the work I'm doing and I want to do a good job (and usually that's encouraging enough to push through the feelings of inadequacy!)
Thanks so much for sharing such a vulnerable experience. No doubt you're a vessel of hope to many who have had similar experiences. Would you mind sharing the strategies the career coach guided you on explaining your last job during interviews. Any information would be greatly appreciated. ❤
You are so welcome! I'm going to share a video on this soon! Stay tuned :)
You are a wonder woman and I cherish you, your emotional intelligence, your growth mindset, and also your well-differentiated SELF, not entangled with a job.
thanks so much Anna ❤
@@TheJurisJourney you’re welcome
Fantastic video Mithea!!!
Thanks Evgenia :))
Also, I hope to see you grow. I've dabbled once before in creating content so I know voice-over-image prob took you some time. I think the editing and storytelling was quite engaging. Only thing, as a viewer (esp. on phone) the zoom and shaky effects were distracting. Trust w.e you think works best, but maybe note that the video would be just as good without the effects. Save yourself the editing time :) All the best! 🇨🇦
clearly I'm having way too much fun with editing 😅 thank you for the feedback, it definitely helps with future videos
