Have you ever felt panic at work? 

Let me set the scene…

You’re happily working away at your desk. An email pops into your inbox from a client. They point out an error in a draft doc you recently sent through. Another email immediately pops into your inbox from the partner on your team. Forwarding...

Just a reminder that you DON’T need confidence to do the thing. 

Confidence in doing a specific thing comes AFTER you have done it many times. 

When your brain will happily send you thoughts like:

• I know exactly what to do.
• I know the answer.

If you’re doing something new or challenging or ...

Hey {{first_name}}

Would you like to go into this year creating more sustainable habits at work?

Perhaps you’d like to leave the office at a reasonable hour more often. Maybe you want to create more time to go to the gym, see friends or go on that date…

Sounds reasonable. 

So why aren’t...

In case you need to hear this today….

These are a list of things your clients DON’T care about: 

• Whether or not, you’re “good enough”.
• How smart you are compared to your colleagues. 
• Whether or not you “deserve” your job. 

Things they DO care about:

• Whether or not you can solve their pro...

Have you ever struggled to be ‘present’ in your life outside of work?

I used to find it SO hard to turn off my brain.

So even when I wasn’t technical...

I was just coaching a client who was feeling really anxious. 

She was worried about an upcoming internal review.

Her fear was that they didn’t think she’s a good fit for the team.  

Her ultimate fear was the humiliation she would feel if she was let go. 

Can you relate? 

I can. 

We spent some ...

Just a reminder that if you have BIG goals…

You can expect to feel BIG emotions. 

Don’t let that stop you.  

When I was going for partnership, I was feeling a LOT.

• Fear of rejection.
• Anxiety about whether I was good enough.
• Awkwardness in dreaded networking events. 
• Etc. etc. etc. 

I mad...

Quick question…

Does your firm know you want that promotion? 

Or are you keeping silent about your ambitions for the time being? 

Perhaps because: 

• You worry you don’t have what it takes. 
• You assume your hard work will speak for itself.  
• You don’t want to be presumptuous by bringing it up ...

If I could only give ONE piece of advice about how to change your day-to-day experiences at work and in life, it would be this:

• The way that you habitually THINK ABOUT yourself and TALK TO yourself, will determine the quality of your life. 

Most of us are taught to chase or change around...

 Have you ever been given that advice?

That you should try to ‘care’ a bit less about your job. 

The advice seems sensible … but feels a bit off.

Here’s my argument for ignoring it. 

The advice is well intentioned. 

It’s usually given by someone who sees that you’re feeling stressed or anxious....
