Which stage of the transtheoretical model most likely provides an opportunity to regroup and regain your footing so you can keep moving forward?

The relapse stage

Explanation:

The relapse stage in the transtheoretical model mostly applies to people who quits drug use, alcholol, or smoking, only to go back to these unhealthy behavior after a period of time. It can also be applied to individuals who give up on some goal or objective for a period of time and then regroup to continue moving forward in achieving the goal.
