In this Listener Q&A episode, we’re unpacking two common but sneaky mindset traps that show up in lawyer life: confirmation bias and self-sabotage. A listener asks, “How do I know when I’m making a smart decision versus just sabotaging myself?”—and it opens the door to a rich conversation about how fear, doubt, and our high-achieving brains can shape our choices more than we realize.
We explore how the lawyer brain is wired for overthinking and risk aversion, how perfectionism can become a cage, and how seemingly small habits like procrastination or "playing it safe" might actually be holding you back. You'll also learn a simple 3-question tool that helps you spot whether fear or values are driving your decision-making.
Plus, I share real coaching examples from women lawyers who broke through old stories and found more alignment, confidence, and momentum in their careers.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
- What confirmation bias looks like in legal careers
- How self-sabotage often disguises itself as “being responsible”
- 3 questions to uncover what’s really behind your choices
- Real-world examples from my coaching practice
- How to shift your inner narrative and start collecting new evidence
