Hear me out...

How much time do you spend wondering whether you’re ‘good enough’? 

Well, I’m here to tell you that NOBODY CARES about that. 

Hear me out. 

What the hell does ‘good enough’ even mean? 

In my legal career, some people thought I was brilliant, some that I was ‘average’....

Do you struggle with being indecisive? 

• Should I buy that thing or the other thing?
• Should I say something or not?  
• Should I stay or leave my current job?

Perhaps you try to make your decision by thinking through every possible eventuality, but instead of feeling clear, you’re left feeling ...

Just a quick reminder that if you struggle with self-doubt or imposter syndrome, there is almost ZERO benefit to comparing yourself to your colleagues. 

Your brain will just get to work pointing out all the ways they are smarter or more confident or ‘further along’ than you. That’s what brains do. ...

Do you worry about being seen as ‘arrogant’? 

You want to be more confident at work …. but not OVER-confident. 

You’d like to find the perfect balance between showing-up as an assertive, self-confident person AND being viewed as humble, self-aware and NEVER one to brag. 

I’m exhausted just thinki...

Do you ever avoid giving ‘difficult’ feedback because you feel bad? 

It feels awkward or uncomfortable.

• They might have a different title. 
• They might give and review your work
• They might make decisions about your progress at that firm,

BUT…

They have no ACTUAL ...

If you’re managing people and feeling a little frustrated…

Perhaps because they’re not doing it ‘right or don’t seem to ‘care’ enough…

This is just my reminder to you that …sadly… we can’t control other human beings. 

Take it from me. I have tried. ☺

That’s not to say there aren’t MANY things we...

If you’re waiting to feel confident before you do the thing….

STOP WAITING.

Confidence is NOT NECESSARY to take action. 

Confidence is also not necessary to take action that other people perceive as confidence. 

I know that because over the last six years I’ve coached hundreds of high-achieving,...

If you’re struggling with lack of motivation, you’re not alone! 

We all have periods where we feel like we’re just going through the motions. 

We start to ask ourselves why we’re even bothering. 

Isn’t there an easier career out there for us?! 

Maybe it’s got to the stage where the only thing mo...

What’s your tolerance for risk? 

One of the principles I teach, is that to progress in your career, especially if you’re managing other humans, you need to increase your tolerance for risk. 

If you don’t, you won’t be able to prioritise your time, or make decisions, in ways that are required as yo...
