I help lawyers like you get clear on what you want so you can stop over-thinking and start making progress.
You want to be recognised for the contribution you make, but in reality, you find it hard to articulate what makes you stand out, especially in interviews, appraisals, and other high-stakes conversations.
Maybe you’ve tried talking it through with friends or family, but every time you try to map out a plan for the next step in your career, the doubts creep in and nothing feels like the right answer.
It doesn’t have to be that way. I can help
Hi, I'm Paula
I help lawyers like you take control of their career so they can create a future they’re excited about — not just the logical step, but the right one.
I trained at a Silver Circle firm as a project finance lawyer I loved it — for a while. I was ambitious, curious, and ready to grow. But as the months went on, I realised I was navigating my career alone.
There was no mentorship, no structured support and no real interest from those around me in helping me develop or progress.
I had ambitions - perhaps even to go for partnership - but the barriers felt insurmountable. The more I tried to push forward, the more stuck I felt. I was stressed, tired and constantly questioning whether I was falling behind or missing something everyone else seemed to understand.

I knew something had to change. I just didn’t know what that change looked like, or how to make it happen.
HERE'S WHY I CAN HELP with that
Then, by chance, I found myself sitting next to a leadership coach at a legal conference. She challenged me to stop waiting for someone else to change things and to become the change myself. That conversation changed the course of my life and career.
That day, I experienced the power that even a short coaching conversation can have.
The leadership coach predicted I would be running my own business within three years - I did it in two.
