Description
Tired of feeling like a fraud? Worried you will one day be 'found out'?
Come along to Red Arbre's evening workshop for women working in law who are experiencing Imposter Syndrome. We will go through practical ways to manage the effects of Imposter Syndrome and start to overcome it.
"I just wanted to say, your stuff really works, and I wanted you to know it, and to say thank you so much!" (Lawyer)
"I highly recommend this excellent session!" (Lawyer)
Do any of these sound like you?
- "I am not good enough to be here, I do not really belong"
- "I just got here by luck"
- "Any minute now they will discover I should not be here"
Are you doing any of these because you feel like an imposter?
- Frequently overworking or having exceptionally high expectations of yourself
- Hesitating before asking a question or speaking up
- Being a perfectionist and fearful of making mistakes, however small
- Not going for a promotion or asking for fair pay when you should
We know that Imposter Syndrome can make you feel anxious and alone at work, but it does not have to always be this way. There are effective strategies and practical exercises that can help to make things better.
So come along and relax in a friendly, safe environment of like-minded professionals at this workshop and let us help you explore being happier at work.
More about the evening
In this intensive seminar you will increase your understanding of Imposter Syndrome and then learn some key strategies and tools to begin to overcome it and start to feel more in control. Crucially, as everyone is different, you can mould the strategies into what will work most effectively for you.
"The format gave me a rare space to really focus on myself and understand my imposter feelings - I couldn't stop writing!" (Lawyer)
The seminar is focussed on female lawyers but everyone is welcome.
