Let me introduce myself, I am Clarissa Rayward- a wife, mum and divorce lawyer who runs a multidisciplinary family law practice in Brisbane during the day but I tend to spend much of my ‘night hours’ working with lawyers just like you!

In 2016 I launched what I like to call my ‘side hustle’ a venture now known as ‘Happy Lawyer, Happy Life’ in response to the growing number of lawyers and other professionals reaching out to me looking for ways of finding ‘Happiness’ in their careers. 

I have since then established a podcast, written a book, created an online course and an online mastermind program “The Club” to provide a complete knowledge centre for lawyers looking to make the best of their lives in and outside of the law. 

My next adventure has been The Mastermind – an exclusive working group of 12 like minded lawyers who want access to on tap accountability, new law firm planning workshops, VIP experiences, and practice innovation. 

During 2019, 2020 and 2021 I had the opportunity to hang out with 10 amazing lawyers in a similar Mastermind program. 10 months, 4 full day workshops, private coaching and a whole lot of stuff getting done. 

I have enjoyed working with lots of great lawyers over the past few years doing 1 on 1 coaching, which is something I will continue to do, but I know myself, there is something to be said for being in a group when it comes to business learnings. And so, for 2025 I am again rolling out my 12 person Mastermind group that is designed to create an environment for the participants that will help them to take that ‘leap of faith’ off the cliff to achieve whatever it is you might be trying to get done!

I have come to learn that one of my super powers is the ability to ‘kindly’ push people off virtual cliffs by giving them the confidence (and the tools!) to achieve their goals and the Mastermind in 2025 will do that and more.
