I have been a self employed commercial property lawyer for the last 10 years and founded coaching and training consultancy, Authentically Speaking in 2016. I work with legal professionals on key skills such as stress management, improving emotional wellbeing, confidence, and performance, career decision making, and becoming more authentic as lawyers. I am also a podcast host and the author of the upcoming book The Authentic Lawyer.

Changing the culture in law so that stress isn’t just accepted as part and parcel of the job. It’s great to be connecting with others in the industry who want to see improvements and changes for the benefit of the profession.

I have three children and run three businesses. I stopped drinking alcohol a year ago to make sure I have enough brain space for everything and find I can get twice as much done in a week now!
