How to Overcome Imposter Syndrome
Alex Conroy, LLB MSc

Do you ever worry that....
You're not as good as everyone thinks you are? And that, at some point, they're bound to figure it out. Probably the next time you make a mistake.
Other people are smarter than you? And the only reason you've been successful in your career so far is that you work really hard or just 'got lucky'.
I get it. I've been there.
I'm Alex
For YEARS as a lawyer I worried that I wasn't as good as everyone thought I was.
My main strategy to feel confident was...
to work harder. I hoped that more experience would mean more confidence. Spoiler alert.... It didn't work. There was always more to learn, always evidence that I wasn't quite good enough yet.
But to make partnership...
I had to speak-up, promote myself, and actually ask for advancement. Almost impossible (or at least exhausting...) to do that with imposter syndrome.
In the end, I had to totally change the way I thought about myself and my career.
Now I help women like you...
to feel more confident and promote themselves confidently to the next level.

Michelle
I recommend Alex's training and coaching programs to anyone who is struggling with imposter syndrome. My confidence was pretty low before I started working with her. I wasn't speaking up in group meetings and definitely wasn't promoting myself at the same level as other people in my team. Alex helped me to totally transform my confidence. Her commercial experience as a female partner was also really useful overcoming practical challenges faced by women at my level.

In this training I'll tell you about a couple of common strategies, that I used myself for YEARS as a lawyer, that just DO NOT work to solve for imposter syndrome.
