A woman stepping into her third act

Third Act Studios

After decades of being everything to everyone else, there's a woman underneath all of that who has been waiting.Patiently. This is her time.

If you're somewhere between who you were and who you're becoming — if the roles that once defined you have shifted, a relationship has ended, or you've simply woken up one day and realised the life you built no longer fits who you are — you're not lost.

You're at a threshold.

And what happens next depends entirely on one thing: whether you're willing to finally, honestly, meet yourself.

That's what EncoreU is built for.

Yes! I'm Ready to Meet Myself →

Later is now. And this chapter belongs to you.

Gia Levé, founder of EncoreU

The Story

I know this place, and I know the way through.

At 55, I had every external marker of a woman who had it together. A career I'd built from the ground up. A life that looked, from the outside, like success. And inside, a quiet, persistent feeling that something essential was missing.

Then everything shifted at once. My father died. Two dear friends followed. A relationship I had given everything to ended. And the business I'd poured myself into began to unravel — not because I hadn't worked hard enough, but because I had spent years choosing from the wrong version of myself.

I wasn't broken. But I was finished pretending that the life I had built was the life I was meant to live. What pulled me through wasn't a plan. It was a question: not what went wrong, but who am I becoming?

The answer surprised me completely. I became a recording artist. A performer. A woman who finally stopped letting fear make her decisions — not because I became fearless, but because I finally knew myself clearly enough to choose differently.

I built EncoreU because every woman deserves what I eventually found: a clear, honest map for this terrain. Not a makeover. Not a career-pivot strategy. A genuine reckoning with who you are so that everything you build next is built on that foundation.

If you're standing at your own threshold, I know this place. And I know the way through.— Gia Levé, Founder, EncoreU

Testimonials

Women who stopped circling, and stepped in.

Before I started working with Gia, I felt stuck and overwhelmed in both my career and personal life. The guidance and support I received were truly life-changing. This helped me set clear goals and reframe my mindset.

Eve M.

I've always been a skeptic about coaching, but my experience with Gia has been nothing short of extraordinary. The sessions allowed me to explore my inner self and confront deep-seated fears.

Karen G.

I was at a point where I felt disconnected from my loved ones, and it was taking a toll on my happiness. EncoreU gave me the tools to improve my communication and emotional intelligence — and Gia was fabulous to work with.

The Collective

The room where every woman truly understands.

One of the most consistent things women tell us is that they've never been in a room — virtual or otherwise — where every woman truly understands what this moment in life feels like. The quiet grief of roles that have ended. The restlessness that doesn't have a name yet.

The Collective is that room.

A curated community of women in the same season of life — honest, warm, and moving forward together. Not a Facebook group. Not a comment thread. A real community built around real connection.

The Collective is currently opening to a founding cohort of members. Founding members set the tone, shape the culture, and join at a special founding rate before we open to the public.

RISE — The Journey

A guided crossing for women ready to step in fully.

RISE is a 12-week online group journey for women who are ready to stop circling the edges of their own transformation and step into it fully.

This isn't a course. It's a guided crossing with Gia and a small cohort of women who are exactly where you are. You will do real work here — the kind that changes how you see yourself, how you make decisions, and what you believe is still possible.

Each week builds on the last, moving you from self-inventory to clarity to action, with the support of women who get it — because they're living it too.

The next journey begins September 2026. Spots are limited intentionally — this is a small, curated cohort, not a mass programme.
