In this episode we sit down with Sam Jardine, Partner at Fieldfisher and a passionate advocate for mental health in the legal profession. Sam shares honest reflections on his 25-year journey in law, the importance of cultural change in firms, and why real well-being goes far beyond fruit baskets and ping pong tables.
As a key speaker at the upcoming Legal Wellbeing: London event September 11, Sam offers a preview of the conversations shaping the future of legal workplaces—covering topics like generational change, flexibility, leadership, and how lawyers can redefine success on their own terms.

- Creating inclusive environments for different life stages
- Personal stories of growth, grief, and rethinking what matters most
"We can't solve this in one go—but we're not free to stand aside from it." – Sam Jardine
