Ep56: Stop Starting Over: The Soft Restart Your Tired Brain Needs | Quiet Depletion

Описание: Feeling quietly depleted? Join the Delay the Binge community → https://delaythebinge.com

If you’ve ever felt exhausted trying to “start fresh”, this episode is for you.

In this episode of the Delay the Binge Podcast, Pam Dwyer explores Quiet Depletion, the hidden exhaustion that shows up when you’re striving to improve, watching others succeed, and trying not to repeat last year’s challenges.

Pam shares a very real story about helping her adult daughter move across states, juggling family dynamics, missing a flight (yes, really 😅), and what happens when the lower brain chatter takes over — and how to bring the CEO part of your brain back online.

This episode isn’t about discipline or willpower.
It’s about learning how to stop starting over and instead choose a soft restart, one pause, one small step, one next-right choice at a time.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• What Quiet Depletion really looks like
• Why New Year goals can feel heavier than motivating
• How comparison drains your energy without you realizing it
• The difference between lower brain chatter and CEO-level thinking
• How to restart without shame
• A simple “baseline day” for depleted seasons
• Why small, intentional steps create lasting change
• How to pause, pivot, and re-evaluate goals that may no longer serve you

You don’t need a fresh start.
You need a softer one.
