After she lost her job in a call center and was postponed from her date on top of that, she suffered an allergic reaction in a coffee shop due to a misunderstanding that caused her to be hospitalized. There she is approached by a therapist who himself is Dr. Tom calls.
Erica realizes that she could have achieved a lot more in her life if she had made the right choices. With the help of her therapist Dr. Tom can take her back through time travel to the points in her life where she made these wrong decisions. For this purpose she is supported by Dr. Tom asked to write down any key experiences that she would like to undo. She writes everything down: from the death of her brother, for which she partly blames herself, to the loss of her virginity to the wrong boy. This gives Erica the opportunity to change her past, which is always associated with risks and rarely brings the desired success. But Erica learns from her past and can apply this knowledge to the present. So she manages to slowly get her life under control again, which ultimately gives her the desired success in work and love.
