For Episode 64 of Lawyerpreneur, Annie Little and I had one of those conversations that I thought about for a long time afterward. She is a career coach who helps other lawyers understand and recognize the skills that they have developed and put those in the context of how they fit in the job market. What really stood out to me is how ineffective we tend to be at self-assessment and the value someone else can provide in identifying for us what we don't see in ourselves.When Annie Little figured out that practicing law wasn't the best use of her unique skill set, she had to figure out what was. Now she spends her time helping others do the same thing.You can find Annie at her website, jdnation.com, and sign up for her weekly LinkedIn newsletter, Lawyer Love Letters.Support the show

Today I'm sharing a bit from my conversation with Annie Little, a former lawyer turned coach for lawyers. I had spoken to her before for the podcast. But, I wanted to talk to her again because she has recently been diagnosed with ADHD. This is something that I wanted to talk about but didn't have my own experience with it. So, I'm happy to share it with you because this is the experience of lawyers having ADHD. After all, so many lawyers have ADHD and feel like it's something they can't talk about. Let's get into my conversation with Annie Little about ADHD and lawyers, so we can all gain some knowledge and compassion surrounding neurodiversity in the legal progression.

Have you ever heard the phrase “A confused mind says no”? Basically, when faced with too many options, our brains freeze and we choose nothing. That's the trap this week's guest, Annie Little found herself in with her business. Annie is a voice coach who helps passionate singers finally find their full, true voice without strain, breaks, or cracks so they can express with freedom and authenticity. She's also my voice coach and she's helped me finally be able to sing without breaking into tears, so I adore her. Now, Annie's business is growing quickly and she sees how she's the bottle neck. She has a bunch of creative ideas and important tasks on her to-do list. Her private client roster is basically full and she wants to create a group offering or membership. But, she still doesn't have all the foundations in place to put consistent content out in the world. And, she's stretched thin. With so many possibilities and must-dos, Annie came to our session feeling pretty paralyzed. But we worked through it together to help her prioritize the most immediate tasks and create a timeline for the year. If you're stuck in analysis paralysis, this episode will be a life saver because it offers a framework to make decisions and commit to action.

For the first episode after this Covid-19 break, I'm speaking again with Annie Little, a former lawyer turned career coach specializing in coaching lawyers. We jump right into what this new reality means for lawyers thinking about career shifts. There are obviously a lot of challenges in this new reality, but there are also a lot of opportunities. And I hope this episode is more hopeful than anything. We discuss: Big firms are generally cutting salaries over laying off lawyers  Will some of these structural changes, like remote work and flexible hours, become permanent or more prevalent? Will law firms lean on people working from home to be available 24/7? It's ok to feel disoriented, off-balance, and anxious How people are proceeding with exit planning in a world of uncertainty Be kind to yourself - don't judge yourself more harshly than you would someone else Some people need a break from making big moves, others might find they have the time and space to give it more attention Don't let this totally derail you from your hopes and dreams Take the time to speak to people and network We've spent our lives trying to keep “stable” jobs, just to find out that nothing is truly risk-free Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thelawyersescapepod/  Website: www.thelawyersescapepod.com

Today's guest is Annie Little. She is a former lawyer, and now a career coach specializing in coaching lawyers. Annie walks us through a very helpful framework on thinking through a career shift. It means going back to the drawing board and asking ourselves about our core values. It means training ourselves to think differently. It's not a quick fix, but a helpful approach for long-term satisfaction. In this episode, we discuss: Taking care of your physical and mental health The difference between working for lawyers and working with lawyers There are easily accessible, low-investment programs that could be a starting point for you If you prioritize the deeper self-reflection, clarity can come quickly Turning an epiphany into action is challenging; it's tempting to fall back into the status quo Lawyer-brain is a thing; it will make you focus on all the possible negative outcomes rather than positive possibilities The fear of making a mistake can be paralyzing; you have to work through that You can change your thought patterns to break away from the limiting stories you tell yourself  Identifying your core values Identifying the place you want your career to fill in your life What would you do if you knew you couldn't fail? The process may be non-linear. And that's ok Resilience is a skill, you can build it JD Nation: www.thejdnation.com Website: www.thelawyersescapepod.com  Facebook Group: www.facebook.com/groups/465965087538268/
