People are more picky about where they work, people are prioritising their mental health. This means law firms that don't consider this will potentially fall behind. Bad leadership and toxic people can massively impact your well being. I've been there myself. In this chat with Liz Smith, Legal Headhunter, we cover how law firms can stand out as good places to be, how people can start recognizing non toxic places, and the future of law jobs.Join us as we explore how the demand for work-life balance, remote work, and freelance/consultancy opportunities are challenging the established norms of legal practice.

We see lawyers as these highly confident, unstoppable machines. But in reality, many of them are struggling to keep their head above water. That's what Harley Street performance and anxiety specialist Olivia tells me. Most partners and senior lawyers say they have had imposter syndrome at some point, especially women. In this episode, we get to the science and psychology behind imposter syndrome, why lawyers get it and how to combat it. What's interesting is that imposter syndrome can actually lead to people working longer hours to try and improve themselves, not being comfortable to ask questions, being afraid to stand up for themselves, and staying in toxic work cultures because they don't feel they're good enough to work anywhere else. I'm sure that this will resonate with many lawyers. Olivia James specializes in helping legal professionals overcome performance anxiety. We talk about the science behind why we can get hot and flustered and lose the ability to talk and think whilst in important meetings, pitches or presentations and how our stress levels can be linked to our ability to speak in a courtroom or in a meeting.Get in touch with Olivia James ⁠here. KPMG study: https://www.forbes.com/sites/lucianapaulise/2023/03/08/75-of-women-executives-experience-imposter-syndrome-in-the-workplace/ Listen to Olivia's first episode with me here: Performance Anxiety As A Top Lawyerhttps://open.spotify.com/episode/46q1neziEWcimbF6rzBcOu ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Podcast LaunchIgnite your podcast journey with a resounding launch that resonates and captivates your audience.My comprehensive podcast launch package not only crafts your initial five episodes, but sets the stage for building authority and influence right from the start.For more information⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠go to my website here.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Let's connect⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Connect with me on LinkedIn⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Free podcast course⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Podcasting from scratch free course⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠My free 5-day email course: Podcasting from scratch.
