WHAT HAS BEEN THE MOST
CHALLENGING PART OF BEING A
FEMALE ATTORNEY?
The most challenging part of being a female
attorney is maintaining a work/life balance
while still advancing my career. — Lauren
Schultz
WHAT WAS THE BEST BUSINESS
ADVICE YOU EVER RECEIVED?
Find a mentor who is willing to walk you
through new experiences, especially
throughout your first few years in a new
career. I am grateful that I have had
people willing to lend me their support,
guidance, and patience, and I look
forward to doing the same for those who
come after me. — Maggie Martin
WHAT ARE YOU MOST EXCITED ABOUT
RIGHT NOW IN OUR COMMUNITY?
I have watched Downtown Macon grow
exponentially in the 20 years that I have
lived here and could not be prouder. Not
only do we now have a plethora of choices
to live and dine downtown, but we also
have family-friendly venues and events.
Most recently, my family had a blast at the
Seuss on the Loose celebration, and I
personally enjoyed seeing members from
across our community come together to
support literacy and education. — Daisha
