About Nifty Thinking

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. Purchase Kevin Simcock's Book: Whose Ladder Is This?
