About this listen

Feeling stuck? You're not alone.

We’ve all heard of the seven-year itch in relationships, but what if that itch shows up in your job, your hobbies, your friendships, or even your identity? In The Seven-Year (Sw)itch: Why We Get Restless in Work, Life, and Love and What to Do About It, you’ll explore why that nagging dissatisfaction creeps in every few years, and how to turn it into your greatest opportunity for growth.

This isn’t your typical self-help book. With a blend of sharp wit, real-world insight, and refreshingly honest storytelling, this guide dives into the cycles of change that govern our personal and professional lives. You’ll learn:

  • Why the "itch" is more science than superstition
  • How to recognise the signs of healthy discontent
  • What to do when quitting isn’t an option (but neither is staying stuck)
  • Strategies to reinvent, re-engage, or gracefully let go
  • How to turn restlessness into renewal, without burning your life down

Whether you’re on year seven, or year two, and already wondering if this is all there is, this book is your permission slip to question everything. And then do something about it.

Because getting itchy isn’t the problem. Staying stuck is.
