Program Overview
I work with associates on building confidence, increasing performance and creating successful and sustainable careers within the legal industry.
As each client is unique, the exact content of each program is also tailored and unique. However, common areas of focus include:
- Building self-confidence and resilience
- Reducing stress, anxiety or overwhelm
- Overcoming imposter syndrome thinking
- Increasing performance and value to the team
- Creating healthy habits and mindsets around workload
- Raising professional profile, business development and networking
- Management and leadership skills and mindset
- Path to counsel / partnership or other more senior roles
As a former lawyer and partner, I understand the practicalities and challenges of the industry. My clients benefit from that experience and mentorship.
As a certified coach and expert in psychology of human behaviour, I'm also able to address the mindsets or limiting beliefs systems that can stand in our way. I provide my clients with tools to take more control over the way they think, feel and show-up at work. Ultimately, it is these tools that allow them to confidently and consistently perform at a high level and take strategic action in their career.
Features
- Twelve 1:1 (60-minute) coaching sessions over Zoom.
- Tailored resources (video lessons, worksheets etc.)
- Access to me over email between sessions for support on live issues.
Cost
The cost of the program is £3,000 (excluding VAT).
Krista
Associate, US firm
A really big draw to Alex was her experience working at US firms in the City. It really felt worth my while reaching out because she's not just a career coach in the legal industry, but a woman who’s been through the same situations that I was working through.
It’s hard to pick just one transformation from the program. The work we did on confidence, leadership and delegation were all important to me, but something even more impactful has been a change in the way I think about myself. I’ve been able to take a step back and decide what I want from my career. Rather than just diving into things from instinct, I can give myself the space to think about my mindset and actions more strategically. I’m just seeing so many more results coming out of that.
One of the hardest things for me going into the program was the idea of putting myself in a situation where I felt vulnerable. Right from the start Alex was asking me difficult questions, but it always felt like a space where it was safe to talk about tough or personal things. I knew she would listen without judgement and that she was there to support me. That was really impactful.
