After 30 Years in Finance, I Didn’t Know How to Navigate the Identity Crisis that Comes with
Starting Over

“After 30 years in finance,
I knew how to deliver results.

What I didn’t know was how to navigate the identity crisis that comes with starting over.

Leaving that world shook me in a way I wasn’t prepared for. I began second-guessing everything:

“What if I’m too old to reinvent myself?
What if I don’t know the right people?
What if I can’t do this?”

The doubt became constant.
I felt intimidated.
I had the experience — but none of the confidence.

A colleague recommended Vivace.

Her coaching was the first time someone truly challenged my self-doubt and gave me a roadmap.

She didn’t coddle me. She wouldn’t let me hide behind preparation or perfectionism anymore.

She made me pick up the phone. Take action. Redefine what leadership — and self-worth — looked like in this next chapter.

What I loved most was the accountability.
I started making the calls that used to intimidate me.

My boundaries became clearer. I stopped overanalyzing every move — and started trusting myself.

Vivace is much better than books or therapy.
She makes you look inward and holds you accountable to grow.

She was tough when I needed her to be — and that made all the difference.

Vivace, thank you for making me see my worth. You always had confidence in me, even when I didn’t.

If you’ve been successful but are still holding yourself back with self-doubt, Vivace will help you reclaim your confidence and self-worth — and finally make bold moves that actually reflect your potential.”
