BOOK HEATHER MILLS TO SPEAK AT YOUR NEXT EVENT
Empowering, Candid, and Action-Oriented Talks for Women Lawyers Who Are Done With Burnout
LEARN MORELooking for a speaker who understands the pressure cooker of a legal career—and isn’t afraid to challenge the old rules about what it means to succeed?Â
I’m Heather Mills: former civil rights attorney, certified coach, and a woman who knows firsthand how burnout sneaks up on even the most accomplished among us.
I don’t do empty pep talks or tired advice. My mission is to help women lawyers stop merely surviving and start actually enjoying their lives—without having to torch their careers or move across the world.

Why Book Heather?
Â
I speak lawyer. Nearly a decade in litigation means I know the perfectionism, the people-pleasing, and the “just push through” mentality that keeps women lawyers stuck.
My talks are rooted in lived experience. I’ve been the woman who looked great on paper but felt exhausted and disconnected inside—and I’ve learned what actually works to recover and rebuild.
No sugarcoating, no clichés. You’ll get honest stories, actionable strategies, and a refreshing perspective on what it takes to thrive in law without burning out.
Every talk is tailored to your audience and event. Whether it’s a law firm retreat, a women’s leadership summit, or a CLE, your group will leave with practical tools they can use right away.
