140 - The Lawyer’s Identity Trap

My guest today is none other than Liz Smith, a charismatic lady who is the Head of Talent at Bamboo Platform, which provides a centralised operational support to a group of legal businesses.One of those is Carbon Law Partners, a consultancy law firm.Through her work at Carbon, she helps lawyers step away from the structure they’ve always known and build something that gives them more freedom, control, and balance.She knows that moving from a firm to self-employment is a big emotional shift, so her role is all about guidance, reassurance, and showing lawyers what’s really possible when they start to design work on their own terms.She’s passionate about changing the narrative in law, proving that you can have both success and a life, and that you don’t have to sacrifice one for the other.Before joining Carbon, Liz owned her own headhunting business for over 20 years. She understands both the ambition that drives lawyers and the fear that can hold them back.What we're covering today is The Lawyer’s Identity Trap and how this often holds them back from creating a truly fulfilling career.Here is a link to Liz on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/lizziesmith/About Dan:Currently, Dan is seeking a London Law Firm turning over £3M or more to invest in, so if you are interested in receiving investment to grow or sell your law firm or know someone who might be, please contact Dan on: [email protected] also provides law firm owners with skills that increase their profitability while reducing their workload.
