Snail girl era’, lawyers’ needs and building better workplaces

“Snail girl era” is the latest social media movement to gain steam, following fads like “quiet quitting” and “bare minimum Mondays”. Such trends might seem like flashes in the pan, but they need to be viewed more holistically as legal workplaces try to get the most out of themselves and their employees in a post-pandemic world.

Host Jerome Doraisamy welcomes back Resolution123 founder and principal Carly Stebbing to discuss the emergence of the “snail girl era” trend on TikTok, what it means and why it is significant, how the legal profession can and should view such trends in the so-called new normal, and why lawyers of certain demographics may be attracted to ways of working that differ from more traditional expectations.

Ms Stebbing also reflects on her approaches to work – both in her early years of practice and now as a business owner and working parent – and what she has learnt from prioritising her needs, what other lawyers and leaders can take away from her experiences, how workplaces can move to better accommodate idiosyncrasies, and how individuals can reasonably negotiate for desired conditions so that all parties can be as productive, efficient and successful as possible in a professional services environment that remains uncertain and volatile.
