ACC AustraliaCan I be happy and a lawyer?
Why does a thriving professional career as a lawyer so often seem to be mutually exclusive with little things like… time with your family and friends, a good night’s sleep, feeling calm, enjoying your day, feeling confident and on top of things, doing work you enjoy, being able to speak up at work, progressing up the career chain without needing to give up the rest of your life, feeling constant guilt whatever you choose…
If all it took was brains to solve that problem, you’d have done it long ago. So what now?
Common unhelpful patterns for lawyers include
· Perfectionism
· People pleasing
· Conflict avoidance, or frequent conflict
· Difficulty making decisions
· Overwork and burnout
· Micromanaging and difficulty delegating
· Clashing demands in different areas of life
Paradoxically, it’s likely some of these patterns helped you succeed – but now they are holding you back. Rather than eliminate then, learn to harness and work with them.
Join Madeleine Shaw and ACC Australia for Thriving as a Lawyer. In this powerful, 8 week coaching program you will gain some quick wins and explore the deeper patterns, habits and subconscious beliefs that may be holding you back from setting up your work and life so you can thrive in both.

“Madeleine being a lawyer made a huge difference. She really understood my world and how I could - and couldn’t - change it. It meant I could explore possibilities in ways that were actually practical and achievable.”
Rebecca – Corporate Counsel
“The best thing about this program was the sense of calm empowerment Madeleine was able to unlock for me. I was able to bring a sense of control and calm to a tumultuous year because of the work with Madeleine and especially the tools we used.”
Elise – Special Counsel
