Presentations designed to encourage taking simple daily steps towards becoming less stressed, more motivated and more productive.
About Me:
I’ve been passionate about working in the legal profession for many years. Now. in addition to my practice, I focus on people, and the future of our profession.
Since pursuing my own journey to find “happiness” internally, rather than by reference to the latest promotion, pay rise, new house or new business, I’ve developed my top tips and skills to pass on to other busy legal professionals who might be on the edge of burnout, or feel something is missing from their stressful lives. I want to help stop the rising numbers of people suffering the effects of fatigue and full on burnout.
The tide is turning and business is realising that a happy workforce is a more productive workforce. Healthy and happy employees will impact the bottom line.
A vital part of happiness and success is learning to be “authentically you” rather than who people might expect. People buy people and law is no exception. When professionals are comfortable being themselves and bringing who they are to what they do, their clients will buy into that in a powerful way.
My USP is bringing first-hand experience of large law firms and of running my own legal business for 9 years, to my training and coaching. I take my knowledge of the profession and the pressures faced by those at the front line, and meld understanding of the issues with a genuine desire to change the myth that law has to be stressful.
Lawyers find my honest and heartfelt approach encourages them to think more deeply about what changes they would like to see in their own lives. My training and coaching provides hands on help and support for a longer term transformation.
