About this listen

When your life falls apart, society tells you to "bounce back" and "pivot." The Art of Beginning Again gives you permission to stop.

Discover the transformative power of the Wilderness—the disorienting but necessary space between your old life and your new beginning. Richard Levi guides you through the psychology, neuroscience, and spiritual wisdom of reinvention with compassion and unflinching honesty.

Through 10 powerful chapters, you'll learn:

  • Why the "Clean Slate" myth sabotages your transformation
  • The neuroscience of uncertainty and how to harness your brain's Default Mode Network
  • How to conduct "The Inventory of the Soul" to discover what makes you alive
  • The Laboratory approach—where failure becomes valuable data
  • Navigating the Identity Gap with micro-habits
  • Managing the social cost of growth
  • Recognizing The Glimmer—your first sign of transformation
  • Constructing your personal Cathedral through devotion
  • Handling extinction bursts and grief waves
  • The Kintsugi of the Spirit—turning brokenness into wisdom

Perfect for: Career collapse, divorce, loss of identity, major life transitions, burnout recovery
