Welcome

Practicing law is a privilege. And it's tough. Over time, the demands can wear you down. Here's how:

• Despite everything you've achieved, you start to doubt yourself. You beat yourself up. You get stuck on decisions. What if you get it wrong?
• You never have enough time. You spend your days putting out fires. You leave work exhausted, wondering where the day went.
• Your time is never your own. You're tracking every minute and the emails come in at all hours. Even your time away from the office feels like it belongs to someone else. Files don't take holidays. They nag at you regardless of where you are. 
• Your self-confidence has gone into abeyance. Your stomach flips when when you see a dreaded name in your inbox. You leap to the worst case scenario and put off opening your email to "later"... then spend your day dreading it.
• You constantly feel judged: by other lawyers, by your clients, by friends, by family. Worse yet, you judge yourself.
• You're too busy to think about what you want long term. As you scrape by day to day you feel increasingly disconnected. You're not taking care of yourself the way you'd like. You feel yourself losing momentum.
• You want to challenge yourself and grow, but fear holds you back. You don't want more judgment. And you don't have the time. You put it off to someday...
• You're surrounded by people; yet, you feel alone. Everyone you talk to has their own problems. And when you get the chance to share yours, they tell you what to do based on what matters to them, not you. Despite their good intentions, talking to them only makes you feel worse.

If any of this sounds familiar, you're not alone. 

These are just some of the challenges that get in the way of lawyers doing their work and living their lives. I know because I've been there. So have many lawyers I've worked with.

These challenges are the very reason I became a coach.

I can't change what's going on around you. But I can help you change how you see, think, feel and act.

To create what you want in your practice. To be who you want to be professionally.

And let's not forget the elephant in the room: your "personal life".

I can help you align your professional work with what matters most to you. 

So you can enjoy your life, instead of treating it - along with your friends, your family and yourself - like a non-billable task that needs maintenance every now and then.

What would that change for you?
