The Seduction of Starting Over (Why You Quit When It Gets Boring)

In this episode of the Selfwork Podcast, we’re unpacking why so many of us feel most alive when we’re starting over. New routines, new goals, new habits — it feels like growth, but is it actually progress… or just emotional escape in disguise? We break down: • The thrill of reinvention and why it’s addictive • Why consistency feels threatening to some people • Self-sabotage cycles masked as “fresh starts” • How chaos can feel more familiar than peace • The quiet fear of actually committing to change

If you’re stuck in a loop of burning things down and rebuilding them just to feel something — this one’s for you.
