Why Most People Quit When They Do Something New
Ever started something new — full of excitement and energy — only to find yourself losing motivation when things get tough?
In this powerful episode, Cindy and Sophie dive into why most people quit when they start something new — and how to break that cycle for good.
They unpack the emotional high of starting, the dip that tests your commitment, and the mindset traps that cause so many to give up before success has a chance to show up. You’ll learn how to stay consistent when motivation fades, shift your self-talk when doubt creeps in, and fall in love with the process instead of chasing instant results.
Whether you’ve just launched a business, started a new habit, or set a personal goal, this conversation will remind you that the discomfort you feel is not a sign to stop — it’s proof you’re growing.
✨ Key takeaways:
Why motivation fades and how to replace it with discipline
How to push through “the dip” instead of quitting
The mindset shifts that turn discomfort into growth
Why success comes to those who love the process, not the outcome
💬 “Don’t let temporary emotions make permanent decisions. Keep showing up — your future self is waiting.”
