From Shrinking to Thriving: Rebuilding Your Business + Founder Mindset After Divorce
Divorce can shake the foundation of your confidence — not just in your personal life, but in your work. Especially when you are the business. Suddenly, everything that once felt steady feels uncertain: your identity, your boundaries, your direction.
And the timing often seems especially cruel — because hey, you’re trying to rebuild your life, and making a living is kind of essential.
In this session, strategist, business advisor, and serial entrepreneur Chedva “Vivi” Ludmir will guide you through the process of reimagining your business and rediscovering your sense of self with clarity and intention. Drawing from her Unshrinking Workbook™ and signature Consider Methodology, Vivi will share practical and compassionate tools to help you reconnect with your power, redefine your professional identity, and lead your business from a place of strength (and yes, a little sparkle).
Through stories, reflection, and strategy, you’ll learn how to:
Rebuild trust in your own decisions after a major life transition
Shift from “freelancer survival mode” to confident founder mindset
Show up with the grounded presence that gets you hired, shared, and seen
Because thriving after divorce isn’t just about moving on — it’s about moving forward, with intention.
Post-divorce glow up for your business? You said it, not us… Okay, fine, we said it.
