Lawyers face ethical dilemmas every day — not only in their cases, but in the culture of their firms and teams. You Can Handle the Truth reframes professional ethics as a living practice of leadership, presence, and belonging rather than a checklist of prohibitions.


Drawing on sources ranging from the Virginia Bar Rules of Professional Conduct, to Daniel Pink, Daniel Kahneman, Brené Brown, and Justice John Marshall Harlan, this course blends reflective writing, discussion, and scenario-based exercises to help attorneys strengthen their ethical decision-making through deeper self-awareness and group insight.
