Private Advisory
Valeria Tsoy
For ex-Olympians, post-exit founders, and leaders carrying visible responsibility.Everyone around you is used to you being the strong one. I’m not here for that version.I sit with you while you fall apart quietly, and I don’t flinch.Not therapy. Not coaching. An ongoing, confidential presence for the identity shift no one prepared you for — built from the operating system I used after my own podium.A 6–9 Month RetainerSome things can’t be solved in a single session, because they don’t happen on a schedule. They happen at 11pm before a board meeting. Mid-negotiation, when everyone in the room is watching you for a signal. In the quiet after a launch, when everyone else has moved on and you’re the only one still standing in what it cost.This retainer means I’m already in your corner when that moment arrives — not a stranger you have to loop in from scratch, someone who already knows the terrain.Over the course of our work together:• We map the transition once, properly — the exact mismatch between who you were built to be and what this chapter actually requires — so we’re not starting from zero every time something comes up.
• You have access when it matters — not a calendar of scheduled check-ins you perform for, but real availability for the moments that actually carry weight.
• We pressure-test as things unfold — the stakes that keep you up at night change over months, not in a single hour. This work moves with you.You don’t leave with homework or affirmations. You leave with someone steady, already briefed on your situation, who doesn’t need convincing when it counts.EngagementA 6–9 month retainer, scoped to what the season actually requires — advisory access, availability during high-stakes moments, and in-person time where it matters, including travel with clients when needed.Details and terms are set individually, based on scope.This isn’t a large roster. I work with a small number of people at a time, closely.Who this is forLeaders post-exit, post-podium, or post-promotion, navigating a season — not a single decision — who want one relationship they don’t have to manage, explain themselves to, or perform strength for.Recent clients include a former national team athlete turned VC, a tech founder post-$50M exit, and public company board members.Reach out to see if this is a fit.valeriatsoy.com — Private
