Linda Bond Edwards joined a panel discussion during a “Ladies of Justice” spring tea party for the women of the Black Law Students Association at the FSU College of Law.  The panelists shared experiences about addressing perceptions that impact performance for Black women lawyers, maintaining professionalism and work life balance as a law student and as a lawyer. 

“We also had a heartwarming discussion about how to handle failure,” noted Edwards. “Failure will happen, sometimes despite your best effort; don’t stay in that place, be real with yourself, learn the lesson and move on, accept that some things are beyond your control.  Tomorrow is another day.”
