E2: Fresh Starts & The Shofar: How to Actually Begin

Victoria explores the psychology of beginnings through the Jewish holidays, especially Rosh Hashanah and the shofar's symbolic wake-up call. She explains the 'fresh start effect' and temporal landmarks—calendar dates or personal milestones that create psychological boundaries and make behavior change feel possible. Rather than relying on perpetual motivation, she encourages using these moments to jump-start action, then building systems to sustain it. Practical strategies include reducing friction, changing your environment, and starting much smaller than you think you need to. The episode blends ritual, research, and coaching tips to help listeners finally start what they've been postponing.
