Transitioning from Solicitor to Writer

Redefining Identity: From Solicitor to Storyteller

For decades, I was known as a solicitor, navigating the legal world with precision and dedication. But life had other plans, leading me to embrace my true calling as a writer and storyteller. This transition wasn’t just a career change; it was a journey of self-discovery and empowerment. As I pen my stories, I invite you to join me in exploring the power of words to heal, inspire, and transform. Let’s celebrate the courage to redefine ourselves and pursue our passions.


Have you ever redefined your identity? I’d love to hear your journey. Comment below and let’s connect!”

Happy clients

I had the privilege of working with Daxa Patel as my coach, and the experience has been truly transformative. She helped me develop my professional skills and equipped me with invaluable tools to navigate challenging situations in both my career and personal life. Daxa’s guidance also played a crucial role in strengthening my resilience, allowing me to approach difficulties with confidence and a positive mindset. Her expertise, support, and encouragement have had a lasting impact on my growth, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for an exceptional coach.

I was looking for someone who could help me think more creatively and take decisive action so that I could move my private practice forwards. Daxa did this and more! Daxa's clear and empathetic style gave us a great framework to get laser focussed very quickly. She can see the bigger picture and also has a creative eye for detail which helped me focus on the specific actions. But more than just the 'mind' side of business, she gets the 'heart' side too - a rare quality indeed!! If you are looking for someone who can deliver on 'hearts and minds', Daxa is the one for you.

I can highly recommend Daxa as a coach and mentor to anyone who is looking to grow both professionally and personally. I have worked with Daxa both in her capacity as a solicitor and partner in a law firm, as well as a coach and mentor. Daxa has also been coaching some members of our team helping them to thrive on their professional journey.

I would be happy to recommend Daxa as an executive coach. She blends extensive experience as a senior lawyer in the medical negligence field with a very human and empathetic understanding of grief and loss. She is a keen listener, allowing you to find your own solutions as needed but also coming up with some very good lateral ideas, if you require them. I personally have found her sessions immensely useful.

Kristina Tomkeviciute

I would definitely recommend Daxa as a coach! She is a very good listener and finds the best way to achieve my personal and business goals. I found Daxa‘s coaching sessions very interesting, unique and rewarding. I am so grateful to Daxa for bringing out the better me!
