In this episode of the Changeology podcast, I dive into one of the most common roadblocks when considering a major life or career change: the fear of “starting over.”

In today’s Changeology Clinic episode, I share a client case study about Emily, a respected professional in her field who’s facing burnout and the internal struggle of whether to leave behind the successful career she’s built. Emily is terrified of losing the respect, recognition, and financial stability she’s worked so hard to establish—but she also wants to explore something new. I discuss how this fear of starting from scratch holds people back and offer insights into how to reframe and overcome that fear.

If you've ever felt trapped in your current situation because of the fear that changing careers or life paths would mean starting from zero, this episode is for you. I provide coaching strategies to help you overcome this roadblock and embrace change with confidence. You’ll gain a new perspective on how to tackle this fear, reframe the idea of "starting over," and start moving forward toward meaningful change, no matter where you’re starting from.

🌟 How your past experiences shape your perception of "starting over" and how to challenge these perceptions
