STOP obsessing over timelines! -sunk costs, turning 30, and starting over at any age

from The Sober Scoop · host India Gants

In honor of my 30th birthday, this episode is about timelines, expectations, and the sunk cost mindset that keeps us stuck in situations we’ve outgrown. We convince ourselves that because we’ve already invested time, history, or effort into something, it’s harder (or even too late) to start over.But life doesn’t actually work on a schedule. There is no “too late,” no perfect timing, and no point where you lose your ability to change direction.We talk about releasing the pressure of timelines, letting go of sunk cost thinking, and remembering that you can restart your life at any moment. The best time to change your life is simply when you decide to.More resources: TheSoberScoop.comFB support group: @The Scoop TroopIG: @thesoberscoopPersonal IG: @indiagantsTikTok: @thesoberscoopYouTube: @thesoberscoopEmail: [email protected]
