The Legal Profession’s Top Ghostwriter | 25M + views on LinkedIn | Creative Director at CONTENDER | Co-Founder of UNrationed | Author of In the Creative Arena

If you're an attorney, the people you want to talk to—potential clients, referral sources, and talent—are all on this platform. 

And while your traditional marketing channels are intensely competitive, the feeds of the people you want to reach on LinkedIn are ripe for the picking. 

We're still early in the content creation game on this platform, which has more than a billion users worldwide and ~200 million in the United States. 

Very few attorneys or law firms have even made an effort to stand out.

CONTENDER helps attorneys produce LinkedIn content that resonates with the people you want to reach, so they can Know, Like, and Trust you.


ARE YOU READY TO...

- Become a trusted AUTHORITY in your market?
- Grow your audience and dramatically increase your reach on LinkedIn? 
- Build a recognized PERSONAL BRAND?

🟦 GHOSTWRITING SERVICES 
- Our done-for-you LinkedIn content produces results for growing your presence and your firm. 

🟦 LINKED LAWYER BOOTCAMP
- I’ve developed the premier training program for lawyers looking to level up on LinkedIn. 

About Me 

I’m a former lawyer and current serial entrepreneur based in a forest north of Toronto, where I live with my wife and 2 little monsters. 

I’m the author of In The Creative Arena: Why Creativity Is Key To Building Your Future.

I’m also a co-founder of:

I'm giving 1 person a spot in Darren McKee's Social Selling Cohort that starts next week. 

When I left the practice of law in October 2021, I had no idea how LinkedIn worked. 

I had 368 connections, almost all of whom I'd met in real life. 
I'd never posted beyond announcing new jobs and sharing firm press releases. 

Today, my LinkedIn ghostwriting agency employs 4 people full time and a few more part-time. 

CONTENDER's revenue has grown more than 300% since my first full-time year in 2023. I like our chances of hitting 7 figures in 2026.

We've amassed 75 million + impressions and the strongest roster of LinkedIn lawyers anywhere. 

How'd I get from there to here? 

Thousands of reps. Thousands of hours. A whole lot of motivation. 
And invaluable guidance from people like Darren McKee. 

For my money, Darren is the best LinkedIn social seller on the planet. 

We connected in 2021. He's one of the first people I emulated. 
When he started offering coaching in 2022, I was his first coaching client. 

Since he started offering these cohorts almost 2 years ago, I've done one myself. 
I've put 5 team members through them. 
I've brought Darren in for a private training with my team. 

I can say with 100% certainty that I couldn't have built what I've built here without Darren's example, guidance, and support. 

He plays this game the right way.
He has the right mindset.
He understands the tactics and practices that attract and direct attention. 

If you're looking to lean into LinkedIn in 2026, you want to spend time with Darren. 

Darren has helped hundreds of folks get better at LinkedIn. 
Seats in his cohorts cost $1,500. 
I'm offering a seat in his December cohort on me. 

The cohort consists of: 
• 3 Zoom calls (Mondays at noon EST starting next week) and 
• the most active, supportive LinkedIn DM thread you've ever seen. 

I'm ideally looking to gift this seat to somebody in the Legal world but am open. 

If you're interested, drop DARREN in a comment or a DM to me. Tell me 2 things: 
1. What you're hoping LinkedIn can help you do. 
2. Why you think this could help you get where you're trying to go. 

Since the first Zoom is Monday, I'll pick somebody by EOD today. 

And if you're on the fence about whether to ping me, I told Darren I was going to do this and will look like a total dweeb if nobody reaches out. 

If nothing else, you can help me not look like a dweeb in front of my friend. ;-b

>>> Let's position you as the expert that you are.

I’m staring at my screen and, for the first time in years, I feel invisible here.

(Repost for more women to see)

Lately, whatever I share here feels like it falls into a black hole.
A few month ago, my posts reached thousands.
Now?
I’m lucky if they scratch one thousand.
And it’s not for lack of trying.

I’ve tested everything:

→ content that previously went viral
→ storytelling, thought-leadership
→ new photos, no photos
→ long form, short form, pattern interrupts

Same result: silence.

At first I thought it was just me.
Maybe my content wasn’t landing.
Maybe the algorithm was having a mood swing.
Maybe I needed to “speak louder,” “be clearer,” “post differently.”

Then yesterday, I read Kelly Allison’s post.

And suddenly… everything clicked.

She wrote what so many women have been whispering in private messages for months:

Women’s voices are slipping off the feed.
Not gradually.
Visibly.

Women who run companies.
Women who lead teams.
Women who write with nuance softness.
Women like me …women like you.

Their reach has crashed.
Mine too.

And then came the part that shook me:

Some women experimented with changing their gender on LinkedIn.
Overnight, their reach increased.

Read. That. Again.

It’s not the stories. The writing.

It’s the gender marker attached to the voice.

In other words:

If men share feelings, it’s leadership.
If women share feelings, it’s self-reflection.

This isn’t a glitch.
This is a pattern.

And if women who speak about culture, well-being, leadership, mindset, emotion, healing, performance, and lived experience are being deprioritised… what future of work are we building?

I refuse to perform a robotic version of myself to stay visible.

So here I am.
Naming it.

I see what’s happening.
And I’m still here.

Women’s voices are not optional.
They’re not “nice to have.”
They are the pulse of modern leadership.

And I won’t be shapeshifting to fit a system that wasn’t built for us.

⸻

People think life abroad is champagne skies and freedom on demand.

That distance is glamorous. 
That movement means happiness.

What they don’t talk about is the quiet cost.

Being far. Always being far.

We convince ourselves that time is guaranteed. 
That we’ll go back “soon.”
That love waits. 
That nothing changes when we’re not looking.

And then one call pulls the floor from under your certainties.

Yesterday morning, I called my mother.
But this time, another voice answered.
My heart dropped into my heels.
For a few seconds, everything went silent inside me. 
My heart stopped beating.

In those seconds,
money meant nothing.
Visibility meant nothing.
Achievements meant nothing.

Only one thought remained:
Please, let her be okay.

The hardest part of distance is not missing.
It’s not knowing. It’s not being able to run.
It’s the helplessness of loving
with an ocean in between.

And suddenly, every priority rearranges itself.
Quietly. Ruthlessly.

What is success, really?
A number on a screen?
Or the ability to show up in the good
and the unbearable?

Today reminded me of what actually matters.
Not later. Now.

Distance teaches you what matters the hard way. 
Not through milestones. 
Through moments that take your breath away.

Hold your people close.
Even when you’re far. 🫶

P.S: Ready to fly back home.

CEO | Brand Strategist | Strategic Advisor | Speaker | Neuroscience Obsessed

I did not prepare this post.
( I know, shocking)

No dramatic hook.
No bullet-pointed insights.

Just a quiet moment of reflection after an evening that reminded me what it means to be in the right room.

I was invited to the Mayfair Collective  ball in London by the amazing Corina Goetz.

Not for business.
Not to network.
Not to be seen.

I accepted because something about the invitation felt real, intentional.

The room was beautiful.
The people, even more so.
But what truly stood out was the atmosphere: elegant, intelligent, generous.

No one asked, “So, what do you do?”
Instead, we spoke about ideas. Transitions. Quiet power.
Legacy-building without the noise.
The kind of conversations that stay with you long after the music fades.

There is a quiet confidence in spaces like that.
Where people listen more than they speak.
Where presence is the only currency that matters.

I left feeling inspired and reminded of this:

The right people. The right room. The right moment.

That is where the magic lives.

No call to action. No lead magnet. No “connect with me below.”

Just a reflection:

Put yourself in more rooms that lift you.
You never know who you will walk away with.

P.S: Ever been to a black tie ball before?

Most people think they’re learning.

( they are not)

They binge-watch courses.
They consume content.
They take notes.

But they never implement.

And if they do?

They do it once…and never loop back for refinement.

Real learning isn’t about watching.

It’s about:

- Trying → Failing → Integrating
- Teaching it to someone else.
- Getting real-time feedback from people ahead of you.

That’s how mastery is built.

If you’re consuming more than you’re implementing….

You’re not actually learning. 

Most people will save this.
A few will act.

Which one are you?

P.S: Don’t know about you, but I am so ready for a change?🙆‍♀️ Message me if you are.

Some rooms don’t need an audience to hold power. 

Last night reminded me of that.

A private women’s dinner in London.
Champagne on arrival.
A quiet room. Beautiful energy.

Ten minutes in, I’m invited to a black-tie party and a private lunch.
Twenty minutes later, someone asks if I know anyone selling a hotel in the South of France… 

Around the table:

- A founder raising for the first time after nine years
- My first ever coach, ex-banker teaching women how to grow generational wealth.
- A lawyer turned governance expert

Women raising capital.
Women diversifying empires.
Women advising on governance, wealth…
Women who don’t need to post a single thing online to be influential.

And it hit me:

These women aren’t “visible” online.
They’re powerful offline.

We spoke about portfolio strategy, angel rounds, legacy planning, how you can open a pension for a child with £250/month (news to me).

No noise.
No performance.
No “look how successful I am.”

Just power. Quiet power. 
The kind that doesn’t need an audience.

A few women asked for my business card.
I didn’t have one.

I had… LinkedIn.

And guess what?

Most of them don’t post on LinkedIn.
They operate in private circles.
Closed-door networks...

the opposite of the nouveau-riche “look at my life” energy online.

It made me realise something:

The conversations I love - wealth, identity, legacy, investing, feminine leadership - they happen off-feed.

In rooms where deals start with trust, not visibility.

There’s a bigger conversation unfolding for women in business.

CEO | Brand Strategist | Strategic Advisor | Speaker

I get asked all the time:
“How do you build confidence in business?”

The answer?

Act like you’re already there.

You don’t become a rockstar because people pay you.
People pay you because you act like a rockstar.

→ Write like the leader you want to be.
→ Speak like the expert you already are.
→ Sell like you believe in your offer 1000%.

If you only feel confident once people show up
if you’re always waiting for external validation …

you’ll always struggle.

But if you show up as if they’re already here?

They will be.
One breath, one step at a time.

📌 What’s the ONE thing that instantly boosts your confidence on days you doubt yourself?

P.S : Guess where I was for this photoshoot?

pov: you’re raising your prices…

but your identity is still charging last year’s rates.

That’s the real pattern no one talks about.

You raise your rates…
but then you justify every line.
You overdeliver to “make it worth it.”
You discount even when no one asked.

This isn’t a pricing problem.
It’s a worthiness leak.

Money responds to frequency.
Clients respond to certainty.

When your identity expands,
your numbers rise without negotiation.

Raise your rates after you raise your frequency.

Then let your brand, your voice, your presence….

match the leader. you’re becoming.

Alignment first → Pricing second → Power always.

PS: if selfies boost reach, then today’s algorithm is about to be very happy.

My secret to setting boundaries that work

(Like, save, reshare for the friend who needs this.)

The shift?

It happens when you stop living for others.

When you realise saying “yes” to everything
is saying “no” to yourself.

Boundaries aren’t walls.
They’re clarity.

Clarity about the career you want.
The business you’re building.
The life you’re designing.

2026 is coming…

Step into it knowing WHO you are
and WHAT you stand for.

→ Say yes to what aligns with your values.
→ Say no to what doesn’t.

And here’s how to make it happen:

	1.	Call out what no longer serves you.

	2.	Focus on your desired outcome.

	3.	Protect your energy like it’s your greatest asset

(because it is).

Boundaries aren’t selfish.
They’re where growth begins.

PS: 80% of my biggest wins in 2025
came from saying “no.”

One thing you’ll say no to in 2026?

Most people think you need a massive audience to get noticed.

(You don’t )

Someone could open a brand-new account today, post with precision, and reach millions faster than ever before.

I’ve seen it happen.

No connections.
No lucky break.
No farming pods.

Just one unfair advantage:

They understood attention.

→ Strong hooks
→ High retention
→ Relentless consistency

That’s the game now.

Not who you know.
What you create.

I built my audience the same way.

No inherited network.
No overnight virality.
Just repetition, refinement, 
and showing up when it felt quiet.

Here’s the part most people forget:

The algorithm doesn’t care about your title.
It doesn’t care about your past.
It only cares about one thing:

Does your content make people stop?

So if you’re waiting to be “big enough” to start posting:

Stop waiting.
Start now.
Write today.
Publish messy.
Refine in public.

Small audiences still have big impact.

The shortcut to being the one people remember

(they log off their phone and just want to work with you)

Doing something most people look at and say:

“I could never do that. That’s crazy.”

That’s when they feel it.
That’s when they remember you.
That’s when the DMs start flooding in.

Bravery demands respect.
Not because it’s loud.
But because it’s rare.

We say we want growth.
We say we want visibility.
We say we want wealth and wildly successful.

But what does that actually require?

→ Being part of the 1%.
→ Daring to be seen.
→ Daring to lead.

To march to the beat of your own drum.
To move differently than the crowd.
To make people feel what they couldn’t name.

And when you do that…
You activate something special
they didn’t know they had in them.

The fire it takes to go there?
People will feel it.
Even if they don’t understand it.

That’s why it’s a shortcut.

Because if you let it lead?

You wouldn’t need someone’s else script to speak.

P.S. If this stirred something uncomfortable in you, good. That’s the part of you that’s ready to lead. 🔥😎

If there’s one thing i’ve learned after mentoring hundreds of leaders, it’s this:

most people don’t fail because they’re not capable.
they fail because they keep dimming the very power that would set them free.

the worst part?
they know it.
they feel it.
and they still hide.

the leaders you admire aren’t necessarily more gifted, more qualified, or more “ready.”
they’re simply done negotiating with their fear.

they chose visibility over perfection.
alignment over approval.
energy over excuses.

they looked at someone shining online and thought:

“why not me?”
and actually meant it.

meanwhile, someone with half your experience and a fraction of your brilliance is out there, getting the clients, the opportunities, the spotlight…

you keep telling yourself you’re “not ready for.”

harsh? yes.
but it’s energetically accurate.

so if you’ve been sitting on your story, your genius, your voice…
if you’ve been waiting for the perfect plan, the perfect brand, the perfect moment?

STOP.

own the power you keep pretending you don’t have.
show up with the energy of someone who knows they’re meant to be seen.

because if your vision chose you,
why wouldn’t you choose it back?
 
P.S: In Paris with Joei Chan.✨, celebrating our next milestone with tea and olives.

Your strongest moments aren’t the ones you post.

They’re the ones no one ever sees.

Behind the scenes, I’m not always loud.
Some days I don’t feel profound.
Or poetic. Or powerful.

But I’m still becoming. Still breathing.
Still showing up in the spaces that don’t ask for proof.

Like last night’s event,
the one I built in only 10 days,
when old me would have spent 12 weeks.

I trusted myself.
I didn’t film much.
I trusted the moment.
I trusted the photographer.

And while I haven’t talked about it here yet,
the real magic of it lives off-camera anyway.

(stories on Instagram if you want a glimpse)

This is where a brand is really built:

in the in-between.
In the quiet courage.
In the work no one claps for.

The transformation happens long before the post does.

P.S: Thank you so much London GreenCity for having me. Pics (and story ) incoming soon.

Before you outsource your content: integrate your story.

AI can replicate your tone.
It can learn your syntax, pacing, language.
But it cannot channel your becoming.

Don’t delegate your voice
until you’ve embodied it.

Every word you post 
is an extension of your nervous system.
Calibrate there first.

Then let the tools
amplify the truth
you already hold.

If this landed, don’t scroll.

Repost it for the people who still think AI is the only voice.

P.S: Post fully written with AI. But real pic 🫶

Some people think: “If I just knew the exact step-by-step, I’d be successful.”

But that’s not true.

Even if I handed you the exact playbook,
by step three, you’d do it slightly differently.

And without feedback?

You wouldn’t even realize where you went  wrong.

That’s why success isn’t about information.
It’s about correction.

Try. Get feedback. Adjust. Repeat.

Most people get stuck because they skip the feedback loop.

Progress accelerates when someone sharpens the way you move.

P.S. The fastest way to grow is letting someone mirror what you can’t see yourself.

📌 What’s the most absurd LinkedIn advice you’ve ever received?

➜ I’m Géraldine Spurway, Global Brand Strategist & Performance Coach.

➜ To strengthen your visibility and accelerate your growth, DM me.

Kim Kardashian’s new show got a ZERO rating.
(Yes, zero. Let that sink in.)

She’s still one of the biggest stars in the world.

Still woke up rich, famous, and unbothered.

Visibility dips. Algorithms wobble.

So chill.
You’re going to be fine.
Even if only a few people like you.🫶

“I’m doing all the things, and it’s not working.”

(p.s: I build brands by day AND run wellness events by passion.)

I hear this all the time:

→ I’m posting consistently.
→ I’m having the conversations.
→ I’m showing up every day. 

And still… nothing.

That’s when you learn the hard truth:

Doing the thing isn’t enough. 
You have to do it at a level of excellence.

And that’s where most people get stuck.

You think you’re “doing everything right.” 

But are you?

In some industries, second place gets nothing.

→ The difference between Olympic bronze and fourth place? A fraction of a second.

→ The difference between going viral and crickets? A sharper hook.

→ The difference between a full client roster and struggling? The right offer.

You don’t need a complete overhaul.
You just need to be a little bit better.

And that’s where the magic happens.

p.s.s: like, save and comment if you enjoyed this post. We, small business, need you.

hear me out 🍵 

most people think they're not morning people.

they're just not sypporting their cortisol rhythm, circadian rhythm, and dopamine cycle.

these 11 tiny habits are based on actual
neuroscience and physiology:

1. 5-4-3-2-1: get up before your brain argue
2. Affirmations > scrolling: set the tone
3. Make your bed: close the night, open the day
4. High five the mirror: sounds silly, works
5. Water + minerals: hydration first, always 
6. Sunlight in 30 mins: cortisol reset, mood boost
7. Box breathing: 4-4-4-4, calm + sharp
8. Ice roll: puffiness gone, mind on
9. Protein breakfast: energy > empty carbs
10. Matcha / coffee: steady energy, calm focus
11. Move ( or dance ) for 5 mins: momentum over motivation

hope they help 🤞🏻
