why you keep starting over every monday (and how to stop)

Sarah Aufdenblatten

if you’re stuck in the cycle of aunday night panic and monday morning promises, this episode is for you.

starting over every monday isn’t a discipline problem. it’s not a motivation issue. and it’s definitely not because you’re doing something wrong.

in this episode, we unpack why the “fresh start” mindset keeps you stuck with food, how perfectionism fuels the binge–restrict cycle and what actually helps you stop restarting without burning out.

you’ll learn:

  • why sunday nights feel so intense around food
  • how perfectionism keeps you trapped in the start-over loop
  • what’s really happening in your nervous system
  • why “just be consistent” never works
  • practical steps to keep going instead of starting over

this episode is about becoming the version of you who knows how to continue - even after messy days, emotional weekends, or imperfect choices.
