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 listeningThis 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.Decoding Money • Power • Love✨ New episodes every Monday | Shorts all week ✨💌 Want to partner with us?Sponsorships: [email protected]⏰ Timestamps1:18 You’re not behind — you’re in a transition phase3:12 Why “starting over” feels harder than it should5:46 The emotional reality no one talks about when you reset your life8:41 Why January 1st is overrated (and what actually creates change)11:07 The six-framework reset system we personally use14:02 William Bridges’ transition model (explained simply)18:36 Why identity loss is the hardest part of change21:58 Carol Dweck and the mindset shift required to move forward26:14 Designing Your Life: prototyping your next chapter32:09 Atomic Habits as the foundation for real change37:44 Why vulnerability accelerates growth (not weakness)42:18 Rewriting your personal narrative47:01 How to apply these frameworks immediately50:09 Final reflections: choosing who you become next👀 Newsletter: https://cherieluo.substack.com/Why trust us?▫️ Cherie Brooke Luo — 100M+ views demystifying tech, finance & MBAs▫️ Jean Luo — ex-Goldman Sachs, ex-Snapchat exec, 50+ AI patents, startup investor▫️ Together: 4 Ivy League degrees • built billion-dollar products • two startups — decoded for youWhat you’ll get (and keep):▫️ 🚀 Ivy League cheat sheets — no $250K tuition▫️ Personal finance playbooks — salary jumps, investing, negotiation▫️ Networking scripts — behind $100M+ deals, job offers & VC intros▫️ Real talk with CEOs, investors & world-class operators▫️ Mindset resets — clarity without the pricey coach▫️ Lifestyle, wellness & productivity systems that actually work💛 LET’S CONNECT:~ CHERIE ~🤳🏻 Instagram — / cherie.brooke📱 TikTok — / cherie.brooke✍🏻 Substack — cherieluo.substack.com👩🏻‍💻 LinkedIn — / cherie-luo~ JEAN ~🤳🏻 Instagram — / jeanluo_👩🏻‍💻 LinkedIn — / jeanluo👉 Hit Subscribe & tap the 🔔, then leave a ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ review on Spotify & Apple Podcasts.
