Rejection is one of our biggest fears.
Just the thought of someone saying "No" to us can prevent us from asking for what we want and building the life and practice we want.
In this episode of Be a Better Lawyer podcast, I'm addressing three areas I see the fear of rejection come up a lot with my clients.
Left unaddressed, the fear of rejection can cripple you and make your life a shadow of what it could be.
Today we're talking about:
selling your services raising rates asking for what you wantAnd I've thrown in a bit of relationship rejection examples as well for good measure.
Listen in to learn how to reframe rejection, so you can create the life and law practice you were meant to have.

Ever tried something new and it felt impossible to accomplish?In fact, maybe you tried the same thing over and over and over again, trying to get a new workout routine, trying to get your calendar in order, trying to do something new, and it just felt like it was an uphill battle.
So much so that you pretty much gave up and felt like a failure?
In this episode of Be a Better Lawyer, I'm sharing my secrets to moving past failures and accomplishing my biggest desires in a way that didn't feel like I was white knuckling through life.
I didn't need more self-discipline.
What I needed was an entirely different way of thinking about how I was approaching these new things.
Want to know my secrets to doing big things like leaving my job and starting new habits like workout routines and calendar routines?
Keep listening.

Ever wonder why it's so hard to create a new habit?
You're not imagining things.
Creating (and breaking) habits is both an art and a science.
Lawyers tend to underestimate 3 essential steps to creating a habit.
If any one of these 3 steps are skipped, it becomes an uphill battle creating a new habit.
I've noticed these 3 steps play a massive role in helping lawyers create habits that moved them out of overwhelm and feel more in control of their practices.
I'm sharing them with you in this episode.
Listen in to this episode of Be a Better Lawyer Podcast, and start creating better habits faster, my friend.

This episode is for the lawyers dreaming of leaving their offices to start a new business.
A lot of new entrepreneurs donât continue building their businesses because they believe three myths that can crumble your self-esteem if you donât know what to look for.
Believing these myths can have you:
đŤ self-sabotaging a good thing without thinking about long-term consequences
𤯠stuck in frustration
đŽ believing you havenât started the ârightâ business
I donât want to see that happen to you!
If you feel called to start your own business, thereâs a reason for that. Donât ignore it.
You have a special gift youâre meant to offer the world.
