  • that has given you energy, excitement, and motivation to pursue your path?

  • >>Julia: I think it is my parents. There are two things I`m really passionate about in

  • this job. The fight and the second chance, giving someone a second chance. Because if

  • you do get a good result for a client, you sit them down and say ``never get in trouble

  • again. I never want to see you again. You are getting a real second chance.`` I think

  • those are the things my parents instilled in me. They love the fight, the underdog,

  • the scratching, the making the fuss, and they believe in the concept of redemption, which

  • has come to me through them. I believe in it too. It goes back to the cocktail party

  • question, which is the other answer for the people. If you believe people can be redeemed

  • and rehabilitated, then why do you care if I get one person off because I`m giving them

  • a second chance. I assume every client will take that second chance and do something great

  • with it. I think that my parents, I don`t know how or why or what experience in their

  • life led them to these principals, made sure my family understood all of this.
