Vivek spent 20+ years in journalism, became India's youngest TV channel head at 27, then left media at 32 to start over. He has since built six businesses and guided 2,000+ people through transitions. He doesn't coach from theory. He has lived a restart himself.

A career counsellor helps you pick a path. A Restart Coach helps you with the harder part: deciding whether to leave what you have, what to move towards, and how to make that move without betting everything on a leap of faith.

No. Sessions are strategic and practical, focused on decisions, options and action. If you're going through significant emotional distress, please also reach out to a qualified mental health professional.

He won't make the decision for you. He'll help you make it with clear eyes. Sometimes the honest answer is "not yet," and he'll say so.

It's for working professionals thinking of a switch, people returning after a career break, founders rebuilding after a setback, and anyone in a midlife "ab kya?" moment.

Yes. Vivek has built six businesses across media, branding and consulting, including Semicolons and Bharat Dialogues, and has mentored 500+ founders. He knows the founder's road from the inside: starting from zero, finding the first clients, handling cash crunches, and knowing when to pivot. Sessions can cover business direction, growth strategy, positioning and the tough calls founders often have no one to discuss with.

Yes. This is one of the most common restart questions. Vivek will help you pressure-test the idea, your financial runway, your family realities and your risk appetite. You'll leave knowing whether to go now, build it on the side first, or wait. The aim isn't to talk you into or out of it. It's to make sure your leap is a plan, not a gamble.

Yes. Rebuilding after a setback is at the heart of Restart With Vivek, and it's why he created "Restart Ke Yoddha," a series on entrepreneurs who succeeded in their second innings. Together you'll separate what went wrong from what can still be used, such as your skills, network, reputation and lessons. From there, you'll map a realistic path back, whether that's reviving the business, pivoting, or starting something new.

Yes. Brand positioning, PR and thought leadership are core expertise. Vivek co-founded Semicolons, a brand communications and PR agency, and has advised 65+ brands.

Bring a short note covering where you are now, what's no longer working, what you've already tried, and the one question you most want answered. The more honest you are, the more useful the session will be.

Many clients act on the roadmap on their own. If you want continued support, you can ask about 1:1 coaching programs or the Restart Inner Circle community.

Hindi, English or Hinglish, whichever feels most natural to you.
