Why You Keep Starting Over Every Monday (And What To Do Instead)
from The Leo Alves Podcast · host Leo Alves
Ever wondered why you keep starting over every Monday? In this episode, I break down the real psychology behind the “fresh start” mindset — why it feels good in the moment, why it keeps you stuck long-term, and what actually creates consistency that lasts longer than a week. I share coaching lessons, real client examples, and personal stories about perfectionism, snacking triggers, weekend spirals, and the start-stop cycle so many people fall into. 🚀 Work With MeBook a Consultation Call • 1:1 Online Coaching🎯 Start Free14-Day Fat Loss Kick-Starter • Free Fitness Guides📘 Read My BookYour Fat Loss Journey Starts Here📲 FollowInstagram • Threads • YouTube⚒️ My Personal ToolkitTools I use for training, work, and daily life Timestamps:00:30 Why Mondays Feel Like A Reset06:44 The All Or Nothing Trap07:16 How Weekends Destroy Momentum08:59 The Psychology Behind “Starting Fresh”10:50 Snacking, Stress, And Dopamine Loops12:20 Why Motivation Isn’t The Problem14:15 The 3 Steps To Breaking The Monday Cycle20:44 Final Thoughts And Practical Takeaways
