Podcast appearances and mentions of caroline flanagan

The stage is set for an unforgettable night as the grand finale of Ability's Got Talent which takes place this Friday, April 11th, at White's Hotel from 7 to 10pm. Hosted by Paul Walsh and judged by a stellar panel including Dean Walsh, Michelle O'Neill, Sharon Colgon, and Andrew Berry, the event celebrates the diverse and inspiring talents within our community. Joining me in studio are organiser Caroline Flanagan and one of the talented finalists, Carina Browne, to give us a preview of what to expect.

Danusia Malina-Derben takes on the myth of “having it all” with Caroline Flanagan, author of Be the First and all-round powerhouse. Together, they shred the outdated idea that women need to do everything to have it all—and dig into what your “all” could look like.   But that's not all. Imposter syndrome? They're calling it out for the fraud it is. Caroline shares her real-life experience of feeling like she didn't belong and how she flipped the script to reclaim her power.   This isn't about perfection or keeping up appearances—it's about learning to own your worth, rewrite the rules and reframe your inner narrative to find solutions (instead of self-doubt).   Discover more from us: • Join PWT community on Substack • Follow us on Instagram • Connect with Danusia • Buy Danusia's Motherhood book: NOISE • Caroline Flanagan's book: Be the First • Mentioned reads: Your Brain at Work by David Rock and My Hidden Chimp by Prof. Steve Peters • Leave us a review on Apple Podcasts • Advertising Inquiries here   Credits: • Hosted by Danusia Malina-Derben • Edited, Mixed + Mastered by Marie Kruz • Cover art by Anthony Oram

A magic circle trained ex-City lawyer, Caroline's mission is to bring greater diversity, equality and inclusion to the legal industry by increasing the number of people of colour who stay in the profession and progress to leadership.

She is a recognised expert on Imposter Syndrome and specialises in career progression coaching for black lawyers. Caroline has had the pleasure of working with many of the world's leading law firms, including: Allen & Overy, White & Case, Mayer Brown, Latham & Watkins, Kirkland & Ellis, Ropes & Gray, Ashurst, Eversheds Sutherland and Weil, Gotshal & Manges.

My sincere answer is anything you want to! But if it's more helpful for me to specify: I love Mediterranean food. Light, healthy and delicious. Fish would be delightful (altho I also eat meat) with something grainy or pulsey on the side perhaps.”  I love it when I get a challenge and get to experiment with new culinary recipes! I wanted to include all of the above to Caroline's meal and I decide to make Japanese infused salmon fillet, with buckwheat, roasted vegetables, cucumber & coconut yoghurt salad on a side. It was a very nourishing meal and Caroline enjoyed my creation.   Visit www.mindsetkitchen.co.uk for more information.

Why do you need to change the way you think about career progression goals? Many of You HAVE no career progression goals at all.   You're floating along  You have no intention or direction  Maybe it hasn't occurred to you that you should.  A lot of you have this idea that career progression is only about getting a promotion.  Some of you do have a career progression goal, but it's not the right one.  You have a career progression goal, it's the right one, but the way you're chasing after that goal is going to make it unsustainable when you get there. So you're either  underestimating the IMPORTANCE of career progression and/or you're taking such a narrow a view of it, (I.e. that career progression = promotion) that you are missing out on the VALUE of other forms of career progression.  This means you are denying yourself the opportunity to create the results of: Being in a better place in your career today than you were yesterday Or at the end of this year than you were last year  And to have as your future goal: the ambition of being in a better place in your career at the end of 2023 than you are the beginning.   In this last episode of the Caroline Flanagan Podcast, we cover:  Why you should ALWAYS have a career progression goal. Why it's really important to make sure that your goal is the RIGHT goal.  How to choose the right goal by focusing on the 4 Pillars of Career Progression, the concept we teach in Imposter Syndrome Coaching. What the 4 Pillars of Career Progression are and how to use them. In my Imposter Syndrome Coaching programme, you do a Progression Audit to work out which of the 4 pillars needs the most immediate attention, and we spend 6 months progressing that pillar first.  When you do the work to progress one pillar,  this has a knock on effect of progressing the other pillars too. You can get started RIGHT NOW with identifying your progression goal for the next 6 months. I'm giving you FREE ACCESS to the Progression Audit Form (the exact same one we use when you join in Imposter Syndrome Coaching) to everyone who joins my Waitlist. .    To access your audit now, join the Waitlist. Add your details there, and a link to the Progression Audit will be sent straight to your inbox.   And make a note! Enrolment for Imposter Syndrome Coaching opens on 6th December. So head over to the waitlist and get your Progression Audit. This is your opportunity to be ready for when doors open on enrolment.  This is the last episode of The Caroline Flanagan podcast and we're excited to have recently introduced a brand new podcast, Legal Imposters, which is super tailored especially for lawyers with Imposter Syndrome. You can listen to it here, and head on over to LinkedIn to subscribe to the Imposter Syndrome in Law newsletter. 

This week we're launching a brand new podcast exclusively for lawyers. Welcome to Legal Imposters! The podcast will have all the helpful Imposter Syndrome advice and information you have been used to if you have been following the Caroline Flanagan podcast over the last couple of years, but will be tailored to be even more specific to lawyers, going deeper and serving you better.  This introductory episode is to welcome fellow legal imposters into the fold, and to explain to you how the key to tackling your Imposter Syndrome lies in turning it into your strength and using it to your advantage in your career. We bust the three Imposter Syndrome myths:  That it's ‘just you' and that everyone else is confident and capable.  That Imposter Syndrome is a problem that you need to fix. That Imposter Syndrome is a sign of weakness.   And we explain how rather than ‘fixing' your Imposter Syndrome, you need to change: The way you think about your Imposter Syndrome. The way you think about YOURSELF as a person with Imposter Syndrome. The way you think about what it means to succeed in the legal industry. We'll explore all of this in detail over the coming episodes. But if you're a lawyer, you want more, your negative thoughts about belonging and deserving are holding you back, you're ready to stop doing that, and you're now ready to see what you're capable of, you're in the right place!   Welcome to Legal Imposters. We're so excited you're here.  SUBSCRIBE and tell ALL your fellow lawyers – everyone needs to know how to feel good about their Imposter Syndrome! In Imposter Syndrome Coaching we follow a simple practical process for progressing your career when you have Imposter Syndrome. Enrolment for the next programme opens soon. Join the waitlist so that you'll be the first to know!

This week Shonagh spoke to Caroline Flanagan from Wexford about A-D Caller which is an idea that came to her during lockdown. The campaign enables people with disabilities to make sure their voices are heard.

Caroline Flanagan and Sanja Rahman recall the professional relationships that impacted their early careers and share resources that influence them. Sanja thrived both in corporate life and as an entrepreneur with the help of those who believed in her, who nurtured her talent and had confidence in her abilities. Caroline remembers an absence of senior leaders who mentored her in the corporate environment. One senior lawyer kept her on track despite feeling she was in an alien environment. Professional relationships with peers who were aspirational and mastermind groups, helped her believe in what was possible. But, sometimes relationship evolve and change and this is acceptable.  

In a fascinating conversation, Andy Lopata explores the concept of Imposter Syndrome with Caroline Flanagan and Sanja Rahman. The belief that any success you have, where you are now, is all down to luck and not your own ability. The fear of being exposed as the fraud you think you are. Sanja takes this a step further seeing the Imposter Monster, the inner critic appearing at important moments in career growth. To overcome this you need reminders (receipts) of success and a support network. Imposter Syndrome is more destructive than self-doubt. Caroline and Sanja have both experienced being women of colour in a white corporate world and found the turning point is belief in yourself; when you go from being the only one in the room, to being the first in the room. Imposter Syndrome doesn't go away, but you find tools to manage it. Leaders need to recognize the struggle and encourage the conversation in order to help.

 EP81: “Imposter syndrome is that feeling that you're a fraud, that whatever success or achievements that you've had are down to luck and the fear that any minute now someone is going to tap you on the shoulder and expose you as the fraud you think you are."Imposter Syndrome can be totally debilitating but it can also be used as a force for good. In this episode of the Nicole Bremner podcast, I explore this subject with my guest, inspirational keynote speaker, transformational coach, author and fellow podcast host, Caroline Flanagan. Caroline was the only black student in an all-white school, was one of a tiny minority of students of colour at Cambridge University and one of the only people of colour at two of the world's most prestigious law firms. She now works with some of the most influential international global organisations including Latham & Watkins, Kirkland and Ellis, Morgan Stanley, Google and Shell, to increase the number of women and people of colour in leadership.Caroline talks about her new book Be the First: People of Colour, Imposter Syndrome and the Struggle to Succeed in a White World and how she has used Imposter Syndrome to fuel her own success and improve diversity in the workplace.   “The bit that I want to help us all individually repair is the perception of that aspect of ourselves as a weakness, when actually that is the root, the seeds, of our strength.”We also speak about: Marginalisation of minority groups, particularly people of colour, and the struggle for better diversity in the workplace and beyondTerminology surrounding ethnic minority groups – what language should we use?Meritocracy and systemic bias.The ethnicity pay and ‘stay' gap.The secrets to balancing a career and family explored in Caroline's first book Baby Proof Your Career. You can follow Caroline on Instagram @flan_caroline and Twitter @caroline_flanagan.
