What surprised me most is that we’re both working on the same module, but almost opposite problems. Tom used to run until he was wiped out. He’d push hard enough that the next couple of days became recovery days. Lately he’s been learning to back off a little, add strength training, and leave enough in … Read more
Six weeks ago, Tom and I started working through the Framework. Most days, we sit down and answer three prompts. Ten or fifteen minutes. Sometimes less. At this point, it’s simply part of the week.

This is part of Building It Live — a weekly dispatch from inside the Fully Lived Framework as we run it on ourselves before the September beta. Start from the beginning here. The question the workbook kept circling back to this … Read more
Day 1. Module 1, Phase 1 — Awareness. We opened the workbook last night at the kitchen table and began. Not planning to start. Not talking about starting. Actually opening the pages and doing Day 1.
