The Evergreen Rx

Ep. 59 Chasing newness, losing interest, & knowing when to quit


Listen Later

Beginnings are SO fun. The spark, the rush, the fantasy of who you might become once you start something new. But then comes the middle — the part where the adrenaline fades and you’re left with effort, repetition, and maybe even doubt. How do you know if you’re genuinely outgrowing something, or just uncomfortable with the middle part of the journey?


We explore:

  • why the rush of starting something new can feel addictive
  • spotting the difference between genuine disinterest and temporary discomfort
  • how perfectionism and dopamine hits influence what we stick with
  • recognizing when your values or lifestyle aren’t aligned with a new pursuit
  • learning to slow down and appreciate the messy, imperfect in-between
