Sound familiar?

• You have too much to do, and you sometimes don't know what you should be doing first.
• The slightest criticism from a supervisor or client makes you berate yourself inside your head for hours afterward.
• You replay difficult conversations with clients or opposing counsel, kicking yourself for letting it all get under your skin.
• You can’t stop thinking about what you wished you had said in court. Arrgghh!!!
• You’ve tried to meditate more, but some days, you’re lucky if you have time to brush your teeth before you collapse into bed.
• At times you’ve just said, “F it,” and found nirvana in the designer shoe section at Nordstrom, or that third glass of wine at the overpriced hipster place flooded with people trying too hard to look cool.
• CLEs that go into mindfulness kind of gloss over the surface or tell you stuff you already know. The rest of the CLEs offer only substantive information, and your brain is already stuffed with that.

You might want to think about personal coaching to create new ways to address these situations, thoughts, feelings and behaviors.

Coaching is a powerful experience. You learn how to manage your mind in ways they do not teach in law school, and do not teach at CLEs. The best trial skills programs will teach you some of it. But even those programs won't do all of what coaching can do....especially when  you bring your commitment and diligence to the coaching process.

Coaching is not therapy. 

(Especially not long, drawn-out, go over the same shit from when you were ten over and over again type therapy.)

Coaching is not yet another litigation skills training.

There's a huge open cavern that exists in the space between law school, CLEs, and mental health counseling that is not filled or bridged by any of those things. I have seen so many lawyers fall into that gaping hole because there was nothing tailored to help them. They give up on the profession, or keep going as burned out ghosts, or become just too cranky to tolerate. And, I've had to crawl out of that stuck place in my head more than once.

It's my conviction that gaping hole is the space where coaching belongs, and the need that coaching can fill. This is why I offer it even though I am also running a law practice. SOMEBODY's gotta do this, right? I wish coaching were mandatory in our profession! Unfortunately, it is not.

But since you're reading this, I know that you're one of the willing.

You're one of the lawyers who wants to show up as your best, and doesn't believe that you have to choose between a happy life and success in the law.

​I agree with you. Anybody who says you have to choose is full of shit.

​Because the truth is, you have a lot more control over your thoughts, feelings and behaviors -- and the results you create from them -- than you have realized you have.

I want to shine the light on the power within you to make your life and lawyering what you want them to be.

I can't wait to meet you.
