About

Hi! I'm Tracy Callahan

I believe the legal profession—and society as a whole—will reap tremendous benefits when more women stay in private practice and thrive. This belief drives everything I do.

For over 30 years, I’ve worn many hats in my support of attorneys and law firms, including:

  • Marketer
  • Business Developer
  • Career Coach
  • Lateral Onboarder
  • Outplacement Guru
  • Recruiter
  • Strategic Planning
  • Facilitator
  • Leadership Consultant

My extensive experience has provided me with a unique perspective on the challenges women attorneys face in private practice and how I can help.

My mission is simple but powerful: to help women attorneys thrive as they work to fix the broken profession from within. I understand the pressures of private practice—burnout, rigid work environments, and the challenge of balancing career and life—are real.

Happiness and success are totally within reach—you can find zen without becoming a yoga instructor!

I’m here to guide you toward better options within your own life and career, empowering you to stay and thrive in private practice.

Tracy Callahan of Touchstone Legal Resources

In my 30 years in the legal industry, I’ve seen it all. I’ve worked with small firms of just three attorneys, to national names with more than 2000. I’ve managed multi-million dollar marketing budgets, worked as a recruiter and outplacement specialist, been present for bet-the-firm war room discussions, and even coached women who were on maternity leave to prepare them to return to work.

I’ve been the confidante of the very people who are running firms like yours.

I’m here to tell you—times are changing!

You’ve likely noticed some of these changes as well.

Remote work has become a standard practice.

The old guard is retiring and being replaced by more engaged and evolved leaders.

Society as a whole is becoming more family-conscious and understanding that women need to work AND be there for their loved ones.

So, while you may have grown up in a world where ambition was paramount, titles were the only way to measure achievement, and burnout was considered normal, YOU have the opportunity to embrace this new era and lead all attorneys into a brighter future.

And I’m here to help you do just that, by putting YOUR oxygen mask on first.

My job is to help women attorneys, like you, get clear on what they want their life to look like, reevaluate and update their idea of success, and take the necessary steps to make their work-life fit their personal lives, rather than the other way around. If you’re interested in learning more—check out my Work With Me page, and let’s take a trip down the rabbit hole of what’s possible.

I’m Tracy Callahan, the Managing Member of Touchstone Legal Resources—part legal industry advocate, part legal industry groupie, and 100% dedicated to helping women attorneys thrive.

With 17 years of broad experience on marketing and business development teams, I had the pleasure of working with firms like Benesch in Cleveland, Vinson & Elkins in Houston, and Greenberg Traurig in Denver, enjoying the opportunity to contribute to the legal field in different parts of the country. I later led the legal division at Denver’s top-ranked executive search firm.

In January 2014, I launched Touchstone to provide tailored, discreet solutions to the most sensitive and critical challenges attorneys face.
