Episode #93 Claim Your Name

What’s in a name?

Everything.

Until now you thought your name was just a name.

It is so much more than that.

Your name is your anchor. It’s your identity. It’s your brand. It’s the connection to your capability and a powerful reminder of who you are at your core.

This week on Legal Imposters we’re talking about the value of your name and the potential it has to make you feel unique and valuable and confident in who you are so you show up to your potential.

But before your name can have such a powerful impact on how you feel and the work you do, first you need to claim it.

That’s exactly what I help you do in this episode.

I give you 3 simple steps for claiming your name so you can connect to it, identify with it and utilise it as a confidence building tool.

I share how your name is the first (and, when used intentionally, the most important) line of your IMPOSTER SPEECH, which you build inside CONFIDENT Black Lawyers. This is the pep talk you need when your Imposter Syndrome has been triggered, to overcome the feeling of not-enoughness and give you the confidence to do great work.

If you’re a black lawyer, at any career stage, and deep down you know you’re capable of more, join CONFIDENT Black Lawyers and claim your name as part of a 5 step process for building confidence in who you are so Imposter Syndrome never holds you back.
