✨ Thank you SoFi for sponsoring this video. Sign up here: https://www.sofi.com/Tiger If you’re feeling behind, heartbroken, stuck, or in a weird in-between, this episode is your roadmap. We break down what it actually means to start over — not as a single decision, but as a group of frameworks that touches your emotions, habits, identity, health, career, and relationships. We walk you through 6 proven frameworks we personally use when we’re rebuilding our lives — whether that’s after a breakup, a layoff, a career pivot, or an identity shift. You don’t need January 1st to reset. You need clarity and a system. In this episode, we cover: ✅ Why starting over is emotional and practical ✅ The “transition phase” no one talks about (and why you’re not behind) ✅ How William Bridges’ transition framework explains why change feels so hard ✅ Carol Dweck’s mindset work and how it applies to reinvention✅ Designing Your Life: how to prototype your next chapter without blowing up your life ✅ Atomic Habits as the foundation for sustainable change ✅ Why vulnerability (Brené Brown) accelerates growth, not weakness ✅ How to rewrite your personal narrative using Esther Perel’s framework ✅ Practical exercises you can do while listening This episode is split into two parts: Part 1 is the emotional map of starting over. Part 2 is the toolkit you can apply immediately.Whether you’re starting over in your career, in love, after a breakup, after a layoff, or you simply want to reinvent yourself — this is the reset playbook we wish we had sooner. 🐯👯♀️ We’re the Tiger Sisters — your Wall Street & Silicon Valley big sisters.
