When you lead a firm, there’s always something else that needs your attention. Making time for yourself can easily become the thing you’ll do “later.”

I’m joining Dimple Kainth and Martine Boucher for Leading Your Firm Without Losing Yourself at The Rise of Women-Led Law Firms.

We’ll talk about boundaries, resilience and the decisions that help us look after ourselves while leading our teams.

This is a conversation I’m looking forward to having with other women who understand the demands of running a firm.

If you’re attending, I hope you’ll join us. 💜

I’ll be joining Kathryn Marshall and Sara Forte for Strategic Business Development 101 at The Rise of Women-Led Law Firms and I’m looking forward to the conversation!

Growing a practice takes work. You can be good at what you do and still find it difficult to put yourself out there, explain what makes your practice different or make time for business development.

I know those challenges from building my own firm. Law school prepares us to practise law, but there’s a lot we have to learn about running and growing a business along the way.

We’ll talk about building your professional profile, getting in front of the right people and developing relationships that can lead to opportunities. There’s room to do this in a way that feels comfortable and true to you.

I love anything that makes an early airport morning easier. And my NEXUS card definitely does that! 😂

If you travel between Canada and the U.S. often and you’re eligible, please look into it. I’ve been grateful to have mine so many times. Coffee tastes better when you’re already through security.

Could your family history lead to Canadian citizenship? 🇨🇦

You may have discovered a Canadian parent, grandparent or ancestor in your family tree—but what comes next?

In Episode 101 of the *Ask Canada Immigration Lawyer Evelyn Ackah* podcast, Evelyn speaks with Patrick McFawn, Principal Consultant and Genealogist at Vexillum Global, about citizenship by descent and the records that can help connect one generation to the next.

They discuss birth, baptism, marriage, death and naturalization records, why historical documents do not always match perfectly and why finding an ancestor online may only be the beginning.

If you are exploring your Canadian roots or wondering what your family history could mean for your citizenship options, tune in to the full conversation.

What a lovely Sunday with Calgary Wild FC! ⚽💚

A Seat at the Wild Table brought together wonderful people, thoughtful conversations and the excitement of a Wild win. Thank you to Calgary Wild FC, The Good Table and KPMG for including me in such a memorable afternoon.

I’m grateful that Ackah Law has been part of the Wild’s journey for a second year through our involvement and sponsorship. Supporting women and girls as they pursue their ambitions means a great deal to me, and it’s exciting to see that spirit on the field and in our community.

Thank you, Wild, for another wonderful season. Looking forward to season three!

You can do excellent work, build a strong reputation with your clients and still wonder: why is growing my practice so hard?

For many lawyers, the answer is not a lack of talent. It is that law school taught us how to practise law, but not necessarily how to build a brand, become visible in your market or develop a business strategically.

That is the conversation Evelyn L. Ackah, Kathryn Marshall and Sara Forte are bringing to their session on Strategic Business Development 101 at the CBA Women Lawyers Forum Conference.

They will get into the fundamentals that can turn good work into a stronger professional profile: intentional branding, visibility and smarter business development.

If you are ready to stop leaving growth to chance, join the conversation.

There is a version of success nobody talks about enough: the calendar is full, the firm is growing, everyone needs something from you - and you are exhausted.

Building something meaningful should not require disappearing inside it.

At The Rise of Women-Led Law Firms, Evelyn L. Ackah will join Dimple Kainth and Martine Boucher for Session 5: Leading Your Firm Without Losing Yourself.

Together, they will talk about what sustainable leadership can look like in real life - resilience, boundaries, priorities and building a career that supports the life you want instead of becoming one you constantly need to recover from.

If you have ever asked yourself, "Is there a better way to do this?" - come join the conversation.
