What's Next After Success
Formerly Underneath The Title, What’s Next After Success explores the personal and strategic questions that emerge on the other side of achievement.
You built the business, earned the title and reached the goal. Now you are asking a different question: What comes next after success?
Underneath The Title: What Comes Next After Success is a podcast for founders, business owners, executives and accomplished professionals navigating life after selling a business, leaving a leadership role or reaching the point where the success they built no longer feels fulfilling.
Hosted by Kevin Simcock, the show explores the personal and strategic questions that surface on the other side of achievement: Who am I without the role? Why can success feel unexpectedly empty? What gives me meaning now? And what do I want to do next?
Through candid conversations and solo episodes, Kevin explores founder identity after a business exit, finding purpose and meaning after success, executive and career transitions, redefining success and building a meaningful next chapter. Rather than telling listeners to reinvent themselves, Underneath The Title offers another possibility: reconnecting with the parts of themselves they left behind while becoming the version success rewarded.
Kevin brings more than two decades of global creative and corporate leadership experience, along with the perspective of navigating his own major career transition at 50. He is the creator of the RECLAIM methodology, author of Whose Ladder Is This?, and a private advisor to successful founders, business owners, executives and accomplished professionals world-wide.
New episodes every two weeks. Follow Underneath The Title wherever you listen to podcasts, or subscribe to the video version on YouTube.

What's Next After Success
New Beginnings: Building What's Next After Pivotal Transitions in Life
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this episode of Pivotal with Kevin Simcock, we are talking about new beginnings, and why they rarely feel like a fresh start at first. More often, they feel like an ending that left you standing in a quiet room with an empty calendar and a loud question: Who am I without the role?
If you are a former executive, exited founder, or senior leader in transition, you might know the “dog off the leash moment.” The structure is gone. The title is gone. The pace that used to define you is gone. What is left is you, and the opportunity to build what’s next from truth instead of pressure.
In this conversation, I share personal stories and the inner shift that changed everything for me: identity decoupling, reclaiming self-authority, and choosing a legacy after exit that actually feels like yours. Not the version that looks good on paper, but the one you can live with.
You will leave with a grounded reflection you can use today:
Six months from now, what do you want to be true about you? What is one behaviour you will start today to build it, and one behaviour you will stop because it belongs to the old version of you?
If this episode strikes a chord, share it with someone who might need it. And if you are navigating a career transition, executive exit, or founder reinvention and want support building what’s next, you can find me at kevinsimcock.com.
