Experts in Residence with Viv Fantin

Published 20 December, 2019

With over 25 years in the Australian music industry as a tour, festival and awards publicist and communications coach – working for industry heavyweights such as the Big Day Out, Livid, Homebake, Splendour in the Grass, ARIA, APRA Music and the Screen Music Awards – Viv Fantin (Next Act Coaching) is an accredited personal coach and recovering perfectionist who specialises in helping people in the music world set boundaries and manage self-doubt, self-care, perfectionism, procrastination and impostor syndrome. She helps people uncover their strengths, skills and values, while setting aligned goals for life and work. 

While our music industry is full of opportunities there are also plenty of obstacles, challenges and frustrations that come with pursuing a sustainable career. The most successful people in this business keep their eyes focused on the goals they want to achieve and the strengths, skills and inner resources they need in order to enact those goals. 

Starting in early 2020, Viv will work with 10 successful applicants within the VMDOs Experts in Residence program. Over the course of three one-on-one coaching sessions Viv will work with participants to facilitate goal setting (short and long term) while also helping you identify and unravel road blocks.

These coaching sessions will help participants identify their values and support them in aligning them to their work within the music industry. Over the course of three private sessions with Viv, participants will tap into their strengths and create a crystal-clear vision of where exactly you want to end up in your career. 

Applications for Round 8 (Coaching with Viv Fantin) have now closed and successful applicants will be notified directly. Please note successful participants must be ready for coaching. Please read the following information to determine if you’re ready for this opportunity: Are you ready for coaching?

Successful applicants must be willing to commit to the coaching process and will be required to complete and return a client intake form ahead of their first session along with subsequent paperwork including follow-up ‘homework’ direct with Viv.
