Blogger and attorney Hansen’s slim debut contains plenty of valuable, adaptable life lessons designed to help readers through tricky situations.

The Elegant Warrior pairs extraordinary stories from inside the courtroom with actionable advice to use outside the courtroom. By applying the tools successful lawyers use to your own challenges, you'll find the evidence that proves you're a winner and a warrior.

With insight, wonderful examples, and a strong motivational voice, Heather Hansen provides a beacon for women who want to create a life of unique meaning and purpose.
