Break Vape Podcast with Tami Ernst | Quit Vaping in 6 Simple Steps

What do you do when the excitement wears off and staying vape-free starts to feel harder than it did at the beginning? That first burst of motivation is powerful, but it doesn’t last forever, and when it fades, it can be easy to question your progress or lose steam.

In this episode, we’re talking about how to keep going when motivation dips. You’ll learn why those highs and lows are totally normal, and how small, consistent wins are the key to long-term momentum. I’ll share practical ways to keep your progress visible, including one of my favorite visual reminders from my own quitting journey.

You’ll also hear how gratitude and affirmations can help shift your focus, especially on the hard days. This isn’t about being perfect; it’s about building a system that helps you stay committed even when your energy changes. If you’re ready to feel more steady, more grounded, and more confident in your progress, this episode is for you.
