— A 5-minute reflection

What are you carrying?

Coaches don't have x-ray vision. We just notice the things you've stopped noticing.

This is for you, not us. Nothing is sent anywhere. Nothing is saved unless you choose to. Tap anything that's true for you right now.

Decisions on hold

Things you keep choosing not to choose.

A restructure I haven't fully decided on Whether to leave this role A hire I should have made by now A hire I should never have made Whether to fire someone A reorganisation I keep deferring

Conversations you're avoiding

The ones that have been on tomorrow's list for a while.

A colleague I should be managing out A boundary I haven't set with my team A conversation I owe my deputy or 2IC An honest conversation with my line manager A clarification I owe a parent or stakeholder Telling someone close to me I'm struggling

Things you've stopped saying out loud

Quiet sentences you've thought more than once.

I don't know if I'm good enough for this I'm not sure I still want this role I think I made a mistake taking this I haven't slept properly in months I'm scared of what would happen if I stopped I'm performing competence I don't feel

Time and energy

Currents pulling at the edges of the week.

A family thing I'm hiding from work A health thing I keep ignoring Movement or exercise I've dropped A relationship I'm under-tending A hobby or interest I've abandoned A friendship that's slowly going quiet

The hidden ones

Older weight you may not have named in a while.

Grief I haven't named A failure from years ago I still carry A regret about a hire or decision A relationship from before this job that ended badly Something I haven't told my own coach, therapist or partner A thing I'd never write down

— Here's what showed up

You're carrying more than you think.

No pitch. About what showed up here, and whether coaching is the right thing for any of it.

— Also worth your time

What this is, and what it isn't.

It is a structured pause — a chance to name what's been background for too long.

It isn't a diagnostic. It can't tell you what to do. It can't tell you whether coaching is right for you. It can't tell you whether what you're carrying is too much.

It can show you, in five minutes, a more honest list than the one you'd write at the top of a Monday.

Most leaders don't need more tools. They need somewhere to set things down for an hour.
