When you align your personal and professional goals, you will grow faster and with greater ease

Do you ever feel like your practice is drifting, you've lost motivation, you're not reaching your full potential or you're on the edge of burnout? Does the spillover from your work life create problems in your personal life? Do you have a big goal you feel called to pursue, but never seem to carve out the time to go after it? If so, you're in the right place.

As a former practicing lawyer, I understand the challenges and nuances you face in practice. Your work can be exciting and rewarding. You get to help people. But sometimes 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, yet going at full speed just to keep up. 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 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 taken a beating and you don't know how to get it back. You used to feel good about yourself and your achievements and now you feel like you're barely keeping up and everyone else is smarter, faster and more accomplished than you. You don't get a lot of feedback and your clients and colleagues are often stressed and curt to deal with. Some of your professional relationships cause you a great deal of stress. Your stomach flips when when you see a dreaded name in your inbox. Your mind leaps to the worst case scenario and you put off opening the email to "later"... then spend your day dreading it and mentally playing out worst case scenarios.
You constantly feel judged: by other lawyers, by your clients, by friends, by family. Even worse, you constantly judge yourself and feel frustrated and angry with yourself for not getting things done well enough, fast enough or to the standards you expect from yourself. This harsh judgment starts extending to others. You get frustrated and impatient when other people don't do what you want them to do, including colleagues, staff and clients. You increasingly feel on edge and have a hard time relating to others. You often feel impatient and get into petty conflicts with loved ones or the clerk at the coffee shop.
You're too busy to think about basic self care like exercise and nutrition, let alone any interests outside of work. You feel increasingly disconnected from who you are outside of work. As a result, you spend more time at work - where you feel comfortable - and become increasingly disconnected from friends and family.
You're not taking care of yourself. You feel yourself losing momentum physically and you feel tired all of the time.
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 when...
You're surrounded by people but, when your work slows down, 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 lawyers like you struggle with. These challenges are the reason I became a coach.

I can help you change how you think, feel and act so that you can create the results you want in your practice and in your personal life.

What I have learned by coaching lawyers is that you have often spent so much time focused on making other people happy, achieving external milestones, delaying gratification and forecasting and avoiding risks that you have lost sight of your own sense of what you value, you look to others for validation, you put off enjoyment of your life and avoid taking risks that could make things so much better for you. This doesn't happen to you overnight. It creeps up over time, with the result is that you feel trapped and don't know what to do next.

In the work we do together, we get back to basics and reinvent your practice starting with you so that the end result is an expression of your best professional self instead of a patchwork of ad hoc strategies and systems that you pieced together to make it through the day-to-day. The difference you will feel when you design your practice the way you want in a way that supports your professional ambitions and personal goals will change your experience dramatically.

Some ways I can help you with coaching:

Mindset

Identify and question assumptions that prevent you from moving forward
Rewire mindset and thinking patterns to achieve desired outcomes
Leverage your brain's executive function to make better decisions and follow through

Alignment

Get clear on your values, strengths and interest
Create alignment between your professional work and personal goals
Define your unique zones of genius and leverage them to do your best work

Process

Set clear goals (eg. time management, career transitions, improved relationships)
Develop a step by step strategy that is achievable and not overwhelming
Make progress and stay accountable

Growth

Prevent personal and professional stagnation by developing a clear legacy plan
Anticipate and prepare for challenges
