Show Notes

If you’ve ever felt the slow erosion of staying in a job that looks “good on paper” but feels heavy in your body, this episode is for you. Vivianne shares the real cost of remaining in environments that require self-neglect as a condition of employment and challenges the one-sided way we’ve been taught to think about risk.

This isn’t just about leaving a company. It’s about choosing yourself before something essential in you disappears.

In this deeply personal episode, Vivianne revisits the resignation letter she wrote when she left Salesforce and reflects on how the same cultural patterns continue to surface years later.

But this episode isn’t a corporate takedown ... it's a broader conversation about:

  • What it costs to stay in environments that don’t protect you.

  • How toxic systems require your self-abandonment to function.

  • The difference between confidence and conviction.

  • Why the “safe” choice is often just the familiar one.

  • What it actually means to bet on yourself.

If you’ve been carrying a quiet resignation letter in your head, this conversation will resonate and help you choose you.

And if you’re in a season of questioning what’s next and want a space to talk it through, Vivianne invites you to book a 30-minute conversation at here.

Because sometimes choosing yourself starts with simply saying out loud: “There has to be more than this.”
