Why lawyers should take up boxing
Given lawyers’ predispositions towards competitiveness and perfectionism, boxing can be a great outlet not only to have a healthy outlet and better manage one’s tendencies, but build a new community at the same time.
In this episode of The Lawyers Weekly Show, host Jerome Doraisamy is joined by Corporate Fighter managing director Josh King and Sydney Legal Advisers solicitor Joe Fitzpatrick to discuss the Corporate Fighter program, the holistic health benefits to engaging in boxing for legal professionals and how its lessons can inform one’s working life.
