Description

Think you have to work twice as hard as your white colleagues, to level the playing field and progress your career? This thought leaves you frustrated and resentful and puts you in the dangerous territory of overworking - doing more work that adds less value. Progressing your career isn't about how hard you work, it’s about the value you add. So instead of working twice as hard, add twice the value. Adding value will transform your work practices and make you more focused, proactive, and impactful. Which means progressing your career will be easier. And you'll build your confidence much faster. Tune into the latest episode of The Legal Imposters Podcast to learn: ??The emotional toll of striving to work twice as hard. ??How adding value will make you feel less resentful and frustrated and more in control. ??What you need to believe to add twice the value ??The confidence that comes from knowing you are valuable. Don’t work twice as hard. Add twice the value. Happy listening! P.S. In Be The First Progression for Black Lawyers I give you the tools and strategy to progress your career in a white world. If you’re a mid to senior-level black lawyer and you want to progress, I invite you to join. The next enrolment is coming soon. Places are limited so make sure you’re ready.

Welcome to Legal Imposters - the podcast for lawyers who are making Imposter Syndrome their strength and using it to their advantage in their career. If you've ever felt like a fraud or that your success is down to luck; if you ever have that fear that you're going to be found out - you're in the right place. I'm Caroline Flanagan, ex-lawyer and proud Imposter, and I'm here to show you that Imposter Syndrome isn’t here to hold us back. It’s here to distinguish us. To elevate us. We were never meant to blend in with those who feel entitled to be here We are not interested in being excluded. We don’t need permission to succeed. We are Legal Imposters. We are meant to stand out. Our value lies in who we are and what makes us unique. We're changing what it means to succeed in this industry. We don’t succeed in spite of our Imposter Syndrome. We succeed because of it. Welcome to the club. Are you ready?
