    Episode #142 The Power of Awareness (opens the original)

    Episode notes

    Read excerpt

    You don't need anything groundbreaking to get unstuck. What you need is Awareness. Most people underestimate it. Writing it off as too simple and too obvious. But awareness is one of the most powerful tools you'll ever use — because it's the only thing that turns a problem you can't see into a problem you can actually solve. Once you can name something, you can anticipate it, avoid it, prepare for it or even solve it. Before that, you're just reacting to something you don't fully understand. I l

    Episode #141 Double your confidence (in 30 days or less) (opens the original)

    Episode notes

    Read excerpt

    I want to talk about doubling your confidence in 30 days. Can I actually prove that number? No. But what I'm about to share has worked for me, and it's worked for client after client inside Be The First — so I'm confident it'll work for you. Do you find yourself preparing twice as much as everyone else, just so you feel ready? Rewriting the same email four times before you let yourself send it? Staying quiet in the meeting because you're not 100% certain you're right and doubt you have value to

    Episode #140 The 3 Beliefs Stopping You Getting a Sponsor (opens the original)

    Episode notes · Critical tone

    Read excerpt

    You did everything right. You identified the sponsor. You built the relationship. You made the ask. And the answer was still no. That stings. It's normal to replay it — to wonder what you missed, to assume it was the strategy. But sponsorship isn't only won with strategy. It's won with belief. A belief isn't a fact. It's a thought you've chosen — adopted, imposed, or built deliberately. It's the filter you see the world through. And here's why that matters: what you believe shapes how you feel.

    Episode #139 The Right Time for Business Development (opens the original)

    Episode notes

    Read excerpt

    You've been telling yourself it's too soon. Or too late. Junior enough that BD can wait. Senior enough that you've already missed the boat. Neither is true. Ask most lawyers when the right time to start BD is, and you'll get one of three answers. Not yet — I'm too junior, nobody wants to hear from me. Not yet — I need partner first, then I'll have the credibility. Too late — I should have started years ago, so what's the point now. I hear all three. None of them hold up. BD is relationship build

    Episode #138 Know your numbers (opens the original)

    Episode notes

    Read excerpt

    There's the work you do. Then there's the number attached to it. Alot of senior Black lawyers can tell you, in detail, how good their work is. Ask them their utilisation rate, their WIP, their BD conversion rate — and the fluency disappears. It shows up in small ways first. You're behind on your time recording. You assume the hours you're putting in are "enough." You're constantly being chased for your numbers instead of leading with them. You believe the promotion is owed to you because of how
