At Ten Yards Legal, we are thrilled to share that our founder and lead advocate, Roselyn Borg, recently joined the widely popular Growth Schema Podcast. Hosted by organisational psychologist Daniel Cassar, the podcast explores topics of personal growth, self-improvement, and authenticity—subjects that resonate deeply with Roselyn’s professional ethos and personal journey.
The episode offered an engaging and candid conversation as Roselyn drew upon her dual-qualification in law and two decades of expertise in employment law. Here are some of the highlights from this fascinating discussion:
Staying True to Yourself in Professional and Personal Life
Roselyn spoke passionately about maintaining authenticity in the face of criticism, particularly in high-pressure fields such as law and politics. She shared anecdotes about navigating challenging moments, such as presenting at large conferences or handling sensitive legal negotiations, all while staying true to her unique personality.
One memorable takeaway was Roselyn’s belief that authenticity allows professionals to connect better with their audience and clients, even in formal settings.
The Importance of Mental Health and Self-Growth
Roselyn opened up about her commitment to self-improvement through therapy and coaching, emphasising the value of working on one’s mental health. "People spend money on how they look on the outside," she noted, "but investing in how you feel on the inside is even more important." She shared how therapy has taught her to better manage her emotions and reactions, both in her personal and professional life.
Creating Balance and Managing Burnout
A particularly poignant moment came when Roselyn reflected on her own experience with burnout. She candidly shared how hitting rock bottom forced her to reassess her work-life balance and adopt healthier boundaries. "Burnout was my wake-up call," she said, "and it taught me to prioritise switching off and truly being present with my family and loved ones."
Valuable Lessons for Listeners
Roselyn left the audience with practical insights:
The power of effective communication in both personal relationships and the workplace.
Understanding that personal growth requires effort, self-awareness, and honesty.
Embracing kindness and discipline, especially as a parent, to instil strong values in the next generation.
