Starting Over After Setbacks: How to Rebuild Your Life When Everything Changes

Starting Over After Setbacks: How to Rebuild Your Life When Everything Changes

What do you do when life knocks you down… and you have to start over again?

Carrie DuBord Atkins lost nearly 80 pounds, rebuilt her life, and discovered a mindset she calls: "do the do to get the get."

If you've ever wondered whether it's too late to change your life, this conversation will show you what starting over after setbacks really looks like.

But her story doesn't stop there.

In this episode of The Acceptance Project Podcast, Bryan sits down with Carrie to talk about starting over after setbacks, building resilience, and rediscovering the strength to rebuild your life.

Carrie shares her powerful story of personal transformation — losing nearly 80 pounds, reclaiming her health, and rediscovering her sense of self. Along the way, she developed the simple but powerful mindset she lives by: "do the do to get the get."

She also opens up about advocating for her son after he experienced bullying and violence at school, and the courage it took to uproot their lives and start over in search of safety and healing.

In this conversation, we explore:

  • How to start over after setbacks and rebuild your life
  • Why resilience and personal growth are built through small daily decisions
  • The mindset that helps you keep going when motivation disappears
  • The courage it takes to advocate for your child after bullying
  • Why the labels placed on you never define who you become

If you've ever wondered whether it's too late to change your life, this conversation might help you see your own strength a little more clearly.
