What if the life you want is one courageous choice away? We explore how to start over with clarity, from the first honest look in the mirror to the daily habits that rebuild identity. This isn’t hype. It’s a step-by-step path for letting go of what drags you down and moving toward a future you design on purpose.

We begin with the real benefits of a fresh start—new motivation, freedom from old patterns, and space to set goals that match your values. Then we dig into the hard part: leaving the past where it belongs. You’ll learn how self-forgiveness unlocks progress, how re-framing thoughts turns pain into fuel, and why focusing on what you can change is the strongest antidote to regret. We share clear examples of re-frames and walk through practical shifts that actually compound: healthier routines, a new hobby or sport, and a calendar that reflects what matters.

Courage grows when you stretch on purpose, so we show simple ways to step out of your comfort zone without burning out. We also talk about the people factor: auditing your circle, setting boundaries with chronic pessimism, and building a supportive tribe that reflects the future you’re working toward. You’ll hear a personal story about cutting negative ties and choosing education, work, and environments that elevate—not erode—your ambitions. To make change stick, we close with a seven-step framework: reflect, practice mindfulness, set goals, assess what works, try something new, recognize progress, and get help from a coach or peer group.

If you’re craving a reset after a tough week, a breakup, or a season of loss, this conversation offers tools you can use today and a mindset that lasts.

Good morning, good afternoon, good evening, and good night wherever you are and however you are watching or listening. Welcome to Food Blendish Podcast. On today's episode, our main topic and subject is starting a new life. Starting fresh, let's begin. Changing your life and starting over, all over can feel daunting, but it's never and it's not too late. So you ask yourself, what are the benefits of starting a new life? Well, fresh starts have a number of benefits. They can help you move on from past regrets, overcome patterns of reminiscent, reframe your goals, and find fresh motivation. So you wake up and ask yourself, How do I start a fresh life? How do I start fresh in life? How do I start over in life? Well, start with reflection. Mirror yourself. Who do you see yourself in that mirror? In that reflection. Examine your value system. What do you value most in life? Whether it's a person, a place, an object, it could be anything, education, whatever. What do you value in life? Don't also forget to revisit and rewrite your goals. Work up the courage to change. What will you change in your life? Who will you have in your new life? Is it by yourself? Is it with somebody? Is it somewhere new? Where do you begin? But revisit that. Revisit your goals. Work up the courage to change. Make your next move. Whether it's moving somewhere, meeting somebody new, focusing on your goal, or attacking what you've been looking for. Attack it. Get yourself a coach, a life coach, someone who can always be on your neck, pushing you to do better every single day. First and foremost, just remember. Keep checking in on yourself. Don't forget about yourself who brought you there. You did. You had the courage to change. You wrote your goals. You want to attack your goals and complete your goals. Okay. But let's not forget where this all begins. We all believe in the power of a fresh start and fresh beginnings. Deep down, we know that it's possible to create space for new and better things until we let go of things that weighed us down. Yet, starting over is one of the hardest things to do. I mean, how often have you woken up feeling exhausted or weighed down by something that happened the previous day? I mean, how often? Or in some cases, by things that happened the weeks before or the month before, or even years ago. We want to believe that there isn't anything that we hold against anyone that we are living in the present moment. Completely free of our past. But often the truth remains that we are what our past experiences and life events have made us to be. Hence, by default, some of our past always lives in us. Nevertheless, there are many times when we just have to start over in life. At work or in personal life. We need to start over even after a bad, unproductive week. We need to start over even if we just got out of a relationship. We need to start over even if we lost a loved one. Life has many things to offer, but yet comes with so much to lose. Why are we? I mean, just think about it. Everybody wants to start all over in life. But we all forget that someone can always stop us from starting over in life. Whether it's a family member, a friend, a previous, you know, ex, a previous partner. Sometimes people envy you. They don't want you to gain anything, anything new in life. So be careful with that. Yet, on top of that, we all forget, in order, in order to begin a new life and start fresh, you must leave the past behind. Leave it all behind. Good and bad things have happened, and there is nothing you can do about it. Just leave it behind.

It doesn't matter. It's in the past. Yeah, but it still hurts. Oh, yes, the past can hurt. But the way I see it, you can either run from it or learn from it.

So what are you going? You ask yourself, why is it that someone, some people go through life feeling frustrated and stuck, while others are able to make massive positive changes no matter what the universe throws at them? Why do some people become angry, bitter, and spiteful after adversity? But others grow more resilient, compassionate, and determined. Part of the answer lies in the ability to leave the past behind. While many people fixate on the past, others successfully move on from difficult experiences. I mean, these people understand that they can't change the past, but they can work towards a better future. They commit to focusing on what they can change rather than what's already occurred. Let's get started on the fun part. Let's get started on the tips. On some of the tips of how to leave the past behind that will drastically improve your life. Let's begin. How do you do it? Well, number one is to forgive yourself and others. Forgive them. Well, the truth is, unless you let go, unless you forgive yourself, unless you forgive the situation, unless you realize that the situation is over and you cannot move forward. That's a quote. No matter what mistakes you've made in the past, you won't be able to move ahead unless you forgive yourself and let go. Focus on the future and how you'll use your passions and talent to serve the world. Rather than wasting time and energy dwelling on the mistake you've made and who has hurt you. Regardless of what you've been through in life, you can always work on making your future better. Number two, reframe your thoughts. Reframe your thoughts from negative to positive. For example, saying, My last relationship ended so badly that I'll never trust anybody again. Dwells on the negative. To focus on the positive, you could reframe it too. My last relationship had a rough ending, but I'll work on loving myself and learning how to trust others again so I can have a healthy relationship. Always reframe your thoughts, reframe everything. When you work on taking control of your thoughts and accept that you're responsible for your own happiness, your life will greatly improve. Just take responsibility and accountability for your own happiness. Number three. Change your daily habits. Have you felt stuck year after year and want to ditch your past for a better lifestyle? Have you? Try working on your daily habits. Doing what you've always done in the past will likely continue to bring you the same results in the future. If you want to move on from your past and have different outcomes in the future, you'll need to put significant effort into changing how you do things. Find a new hobby. Find a new sport. Okay, find better habits, find healthier choices, make healthier choices, find a new diet, and your mindset all at once. The goal is to simply be healthier, and being healthier is just a positive start. Number four, get out of your comfort zone. Get out. I mean, get out, like get out. If you don't get out of your comfort zone, you'll never leave the past behind. If you want to leave the past behind, the best way to do it is to make your life better than what it was in the past. And the best way to do that is to regular to take regular steps out of your comfort zone. Commit to pushing past your fears and trying new things. It's essential. It's essential for growth. It is. Number five. Build an amazing tribe. You're the average of the five people you spend the most time with. If you want to create a different future, a different future, consider who you spend the most time you're with. Are these people building you up? Are they encouraging you and supporting you to do your best in life or to be your best in life? Or are they usually negative? And pessimistic people. Pessimistic people are people who always expect the worst of the worst. A pessimistic person or their attitude isn't very hopeful. It shows little optimisms and can be a downer for everyone else. To be pessimistic means you believe evil outweighs the good and the bad things are more likely to happen. These are basically negative people around you, the negative energy. Keep them away from you. So in order to start fresh, you must be ready to be dedicated. And you must not give up. You must not give up. Okay? Never ever give up. You have to think about your life. So here are some indications that you need to start a new life. You have been thinking about how your life used to be or how you would like it to be, and feel helpless over how it is at the moment. You feel like your current obligations are weighing you down, and you might be sacrificing too much of yourself to meet expectations. Your hometown or workplace is starting to seem suffocating, and the people you make, the people who make you feel like an outsider are present. You have been crying due to dissatisfaction with your life lately. It is important to understand the fact and the impact of a situation on your body or on your health. You would much rather accept death than continue with your life the way it is going at the moment. If these apply to you, then you weigh your opinion and seriously consider a fresh start in life. Consider it. Move on. Get it started. Now, the way I started my life over was separating myself from negative energy, negative people, pessimistic people. Those are the type of people you want to get yourself away from. They are Debbie Downers, they will drag you down with them. If they aren't going nowhere and they see you trying to be successful, they will take you down. So it's important to get those type of people away from you. Far, far away from you. And if you can't escape it, or if they won't let you, you must find a way to get away from that energy. Whether it's family, friends, peers, coworkers, colleagues, partners, ex-partners, anybody, anybody, get away from them as far as possible. And to be honest, personally, in my life, I had to get away from those who were dragging me down. Who were trying to drag me down with them. I I'm uh uh I will not let you take me down with you. You are not my boss, you are not in control of my life, I'm getting away as far as possible. I'm gonna get a better education, I'm gonna go to better schools, I'm gonna get a better job, better apartment, better living condition. I'm gonna position myself to be successful without you. And if you're not coming out with me to be positive and to be a great leader, then I don't want to be around you because I want to be a leader. So I had to get away from those who were affecting me, whether they were family, relatives, friends, ex-partners, whomever. I had to escape that, and it was the best thing I did. I'm so grateful that I left because those folks have been negative to me ever since high school, college, and the only reason why I was around is just because hey, you know what? They need to see my face from here on, you know, here and there. I won't say no names. Even though I love you guys, I love y'all, but I must love you guys from a distance. Because if I don't see your life going nowhere, and you can't take me anywhere with you in a successful world, then I can't be around that negative energy or that guilt of failure. I can't. I'm an ambitious person, I know who I am. I'm motivated, I always want to get it, I always want to go above and beyond, even if it costs me to take more risks in life. Okay? But hey, anyways, if you want to start life, I'm gonna give you the seven steps to number one reflect on your past experiences, two, practice mindfulness, three, identify your goals, four determine what's working and what needs to change. Five, try something new, and six, recognize your progress always, and seven, reach out to a life coach, reach out for some help, okay? Reach out, but hey, if you want to change, start a fresh new life, it starts now. If you need some help, you let me know, you call me, you call us, we will help you, we will send you those steps to changing your life.
