Imagine a practice where you're in charge.
When you put your mind to it, you can grow faster professionally, with greater ease.
If you feel like your practice is not going quite in the direction you want, your usual spark is slowly creeping toward burnout or you know you're not reaching your full potential, you're in the right place.
Practicing law can be exciting and rewarding. You get to help people. But the stress, conflict and relentless pace can wear you down. Without support, you might find yourself with less energy and passion for your work than you had before. Without time to reflect, you might find yourself drifting; unsure of where you're headed. Here are some of the challenges I see among lawyers I work with:
- Despite everything you've achieved, you doubt yourself. You beat yourself up. You get stuck on decisions.
- You feel like you never have enough time. You spend your days putting out fires between Zoom calls and barely make a dent in your to do list.
- Your time never feels like 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 go.
- 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. And others. You have a hard time relating and you find yourself getting impatient and getting into petty conflicts with loved ones.
- You're too busy to think about looking after yourself, let alone any interests outside of work. You feel increasingly disconnected from your identify outside of law.
- You're not taking care of yourself the way you'd like. You feel yourself losing momentum physically and you feel tired.
- You want to challenge yourself and grow, but the thought makes you feel uncomfortable. The fear holds you back. You don't want more judgment. And you don't have the time. You put your goals 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.
These challenges are the reason I became a coach.
It doesn't have to be that way.
I can't change what's going on around you. But I can help you change how you see, think, feel and act. And what you create as results in your life:
- What you truly want in your practice.
- Time that you control and align with your goals.
- A distinct professional brand.
- A personal life that enhances your professional one, instead of feeling like a chore that slows you down from your work.
I can help you align your professional work with what matters most to you. To take risks and reap rewards.
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?
