Speaker bio
Kara McCarthy Perry
, JD, spent more than two decades as a corporate healthcare attorney, in private practice and in-house, drafting and negotiating complex contracts where the stakes were high and the deadlines were real. She knows what it is like to do demanding work under pressure, and the toll it can take without the right tools. A certified yoga and meditation teacher, laughter yoga leader, and trained coach, she now teaches and coaches lawyers and law students in practical ways to meet that pressure with clarity and steadiness. As founder of Just Brilliant LLC, Ms. McCarthy Perry helps lawyers, teams, and organizations align what they value with how they operate. She draws on her legal experience, her training in contemplative practices, and her certification in the Conscious Contracts® process, a values-based approach to building agreements and working relationships. Ms. McCarthy Perry teaches the Integrative Law Approach to Negotiation at Quinnipiac University School of Law, where she is a Senior Fellow at the Center on Dispute Resolution, and Law Student Wellness and Mindfulness at Seton Hall University School of Law. Her scholarship explores embodied negotiation, relational contracting, and reflective practice in legal education. Ms. McCarthy Perry’s publications include “Beyond the Box” (NYU Journal of Law & Business) and “Embodied Negotiation” (Washington University Journal of Law & Policy). Outside the legal world, she teaches yoga regularly in studio and community settings. She speaks and leads workshops on well-being as a core professional competency, values-based leadership, and integrative approaches to law. Ms. McCarthy Perry has presented for organizations including the ABA, AALS, the Institute for Well-Being in Law (IWIL), and the National Association of Women Lawyers, as well as law schools, bar associations, and legal employers. She serves as Chair of IWIL’s Law School Committee and Chair of the NJ/NY Chapter of the Mindfulness in Law Society. Ms. McCarthy Perry also sits on the TEDLaw Advisory Board and is a member of the NJSBA Lawyer Well-Being Committee. A self-described “laughing, lunging lawyer,” she believes a little levity goes a long way, especially under pressure. Ms. McCarthy Perry is the mom of three young adults and a chocolate lab and has been married to her best friend for over 28 years, which keeps her negotiation skills sharp.
