    From Imposter Syndrome to Unstoppable Force, with Sheila Murphy

    I got to hang out with Sheila Murphy, CEO of Focus Forward Consulting and former senior vice president and associate general counsel at MetLife, about her journey as a woman lawyer. We discuss various topics, including what inspired Sheila to go to law school, her experience in law school, and her love for the character Beth Dutton from the hit TV show Yellowstone. 🤠 Sheila shares her journey as a lawyer and how she initially wanted to avoid public speaking and court appearances. However, after realizing the importance of self-advocacy and making herself known in the office, she began to change her approach and focus on becoming a leader in her company. The conversation also touches on the importance of self-care and taking up space, as well as the need for more female leaders in the legal industry. Sheila also talks about her transition from being an attorney to starting her own consulting firm, Focus Forward Consulting, and how she primarily works with lawyers who want to uplevel their careers. The episode ends with Sheila sharing her thoughts on networking and encouraging listeners to take breaks and give themselves space to rejuvenate.
