Ep #141: Career Crossroads: Why Lawyers Get Stuck and How They Move Forward

The Joyful Practice for Women Lawyers with Paula Price | Career Crossroads: Why Lawyers Get Stuck and How They Move Forward

Over the last six years of my coaching practice, I’ve witnessed many lawyers just like you who are experiencing a feeling of stagnation or plateau in their careers. They question why they’re stuck when it seems like everyone else around them is happy in their practice. If you’re experiencing an internal nudge that something needs to change, you’re most definitely not alone.

 

My clients are invariably brilliant, smart, ambitious lawyers who want to create an impact that is often beyond what they’re currently achieving. They strive to foster professional excellence while cultivating a supporting environment in their personal lives, but face a bottleneck and can’t see a path forward. To make progress, we must first uncover why you’re feeling stuck, and I’m sharing my observations with you this week.

 

Join me this week as I offer the three main themes that may be contributing to your experience of feeling stuck, and a four-step formula for moving forward with clarity and confidence. You’ll hear how to see your stagnation as a positive rather than a negative, what to expect as you commit to getting unstuck, and how to feel empowered moving forward.
