Section One: AFTER-ACTION REVIEW
Let’s zone in on your third Big 3 commitment: Lock in three intentional “connection” sessions (meetings or collaborative working blocks) to boost creativity and accountability—spread across different projects if possible. This is a fantastic goal for both productivity and energy, so let’s unpack it.
Here are several issues you’ll want to consider as you work toward making good on this commitment:
1. Clarity of Intent:
Who do you most need to connect with? What specific outcome do you hope for from each session—idea generation, feedback, momentum, shared problem-solving? Getting clear about the purpose will help you match the right people and format to each connection.
2. Scheduling Logistics:
How easy—or challenging—is it to get on people’s calendars right now? Will these be virtual or in-person? Do your collaborators have preferred times for deep work or meetings that align with yours?
3. Project Diversity:
Since you want these sessions spread across different projects, what projects matter most right now—and which would benefit from an infusion of collaboration or accountability?
4. Collaboration Styles & Energy:
Are there certain colleagues who energize your creative process more than others? Have past collaboration styles worked well—or left something lacking?
5. Follow-up Mechanisms:
How will you capture insights or next steps coming out of each session so nothing gets lost in the shuffle?
Before I nudge deeper into strategies tailored just for you, I want to make sure I’ve heard you clearly: When thinking about locking in these “connection” sessions this week, what feels like your biggest opportunity—and what feels like a sticking point that could trip up your progress?
Would you like me to expand further based on where things feel stuck (or exciting) as you look at this third Big 3 goal? Or share examples of specific tactics that have helped other professionals keep their connection commitments intentional and effective?
Last week's Big 3
Your Weekly Big 3 are clear, actionable, and directly aligned with your purpose:
1. Propose UI changes—mainly around top and right navigation menus—with David and Jeremie.
2. Set up meetings for dialogue with pairs/small groups of teachers—during TTT time or at another more convenient slot.
3. Activate new or dormant connections with Writing Project directors and others—stir the pot a bit more.
What I love here is that each Big 3 item moves you further toward meaningful impact. You’re not just “doing stuff”—you’re pushing for visible change (UI progress), deepening feedback loops (teacher dialogues), and expanding your network’s energy (reaching out to WP folks).
To help these stick, consider:
- For UI changes: What exactly will you deliver—a clickable mockup, annotated screenshots, or a written spec? When will this get reviewed?
- For teacher dialogues: How will you invite participation? Any specific questions or goals you want to draw out in these sessions?
- For connection-building: Have you identified who gets first contact? Is your message ready so it’s easy to send/repeat?
How do these Weekly Big 3 feel compared to last week? Anything that feels sharper—or any concerns about scope/feasibility this time?

You have built a fantastic service and the time is right for it to reach a wider audience of teachers. Thank you for sharing your progress with me and please don’t hesitate to reach out if I can be of any help as you move it all forward.
Happy 4th!
Iva.
Absolutely, that’s got some real encouragement packed in there! The way she says, “you have built a fantastic service” really boosts y’all up, giving credit where it’s due. Plus, mentioning the right time for it to get out to more teachers shows belief in your potential and what you’ve accomplished so far. That kind of support can definitely keep a team motivated.
Do you want me to go further and point out other features that give this message its encouraging vibe?

Questions for Exploration
- This question digs into the power of routines and whether they actually help maintain momentum or just create busywork.
- Why it might interest you: Your notes show a clear structure with morning, startup, shutdown, and evening rituals, and repeated lists of “Daily Big 3.” This suggests you’re experimenting with routines to see what works for you.
- Quotes:
- “Morning Ritual | Workday Startup Ritual | Workday Shutdown Ritual | Evening Ritual”
- “List your 3 most important tasks.”
- This question explores whether setting up structured “connection” sessions and dialogues with others really fuels innovation and keeps you on track.
- Why it might interest you: You prioritize meetings, dialogues, and outreach in both “Big 3” lists and reflect on their effect: “boost creativity and accountability,” “deepening feedback loops,” “expanding your network’s energy.”
- Quotes:
- “Lock in three intentional ‘connection’ sessions (meetings or collaborative working blocks) to boost creativity and accountability.”
- “Set up meetings for dialogue with pairs/small groups of teachers.”
- This question focuses on the difference between tasks that truly matter and those that are just “busywork.” How do you know the difference, and how do you keep yourself focused on what matters most?
- Why it might interest you: You highlight “not just doing stuff,” but “pushing for visible change,” “deepening feedback loops,” and “expanding your network’s energy.”
- Quotes:
- “You’re not just ‘doing stuff’—you’re pushing for visible change…”
- “Each Big 3 item moves you further toward meaningful impact.”
- Pick one of these questions that grabs your attention the most.
- Think about why it stands out to you—does it connect with something you’re wrestling with or excited about?
- Jot down a few notes on what you’d want to explore if you wrote about this theme.
Next up, we’ll shift gears and get into the kinds of questions that can help you start writing about your chosen theme. Exploring your routines, collaboration, or the meaning of “impact” can open up new insights about your work and yourself. Would you like to see the next section—Questions for Writing?
Try it yourself! Remember, these themes are just starting points. Choose one that feels important to you and start your composition! We can’t wait to see what you have to say about your chosen topic. Start your composition right over there on the left side. Add to Document, come up with a working title, and let it fly! Want to see the next section?
Section One: AFTER-ACTION REVIEW
Let’s kick off your review and preview session with the After-Action Review. You’ve already outlined both your current and last week’s Big 3, which gives us a great foundation.
First up:
List 3-5 of your biggest wins from this week—these can be accomplishments, breakthroughs, or even small victories that made you feel good or moved things forward.
Take a moment to reflect on what went well for you this week. What felt like a true “win”—personally, professionally, or otherwise?
Would you like to see more after you’ve shared your wins?
So, Monday and Tuesday were mainly days when I focused on projects by myself, and this work set up meetings on Wednesdays and Thursday, then I returned to more solitary design work on Friday.
You shared that Monday and Tuesday were dedicated to focused solo project work, which in turn set up the collaborative meetings on Wednesday and Thursday. Then, you looped back to more solitary design work on Friday. This shows a rhythm in your week—alternating between deep individual focus and intentional collaboration.
I’m hearing that you value both heads-down creation time and the energy from collaborative sessions. That blend often sparks creative breakthroughs yet also lets you process ideas before or after group input.
Reflecting on your wins from this week (like launching the Dr. Anne Case Simulator, meeting with Melanie Hammer for writer feedback, TTT with Andrea Zellner, and wireframing progress with David Cole), how did this rhythm—solo then collaborative then back to solo—impact those successes? Did it help your momentum or clarity? Would you want to shift anything about how you balanced these modes next week?
Would you like to see more of the After-Action Review now?
You mentioned that Monday and Tuesday were mainly solo project deep-dives, which then set the tone for collaborative meetings on Wednesday and Thursday, followed by more solitary design work on Friday. That alternating structure—individual focus feeding into collaboration, and then back again—can be a powerful way to maintain both momentum and creative clarity.
It sounds like you’re tuning into what works for your flow. How did this rhythm of heads-down time leading into collaborative sessions (and vice versa) affect your energy or sense of accomplishment this week? Were there specific project breakthroughs or interpersonal wins that felt tied to when you scheduled each type of work?
Would you like to move forward with the next part of the After-Action Review?
Great reflections—let’s keep this momentum going. Next, let’s look at your progress on the Weekly Big 3.
For each of your current Weekly Big 3 goals, estimate how far you got on each (as a percentage):
- Complete an actionable prototype or wireframe with David Cole to share with Iva Koberg by Thursday.
- Reignite marketing outreach (including NWP Directors)—set up at least two concrete next steps or send two key messages this week.
- Lock in three intentional “connection” sessions (meetings or collaborative working blocks) to boost creativity and accountability—spread across different projects if possible.
How close did you get to finishing each one? Please add a quick percentage for each, and share any quick notes about your progress!
Would you like to see more after sharing those details?
- Complete an actionable prototype or wireframe with David Cole to share with Iva Koberg by Thursday. 80% We might have had more ready for Iva, but it was enough for her to appreciate what we had there and she inspired more work on the wireframe. I’m confident about the direction of this work.
- Reignite marketing outreach (including NWP Directors)—set up at least two concrete next steps or send two key messages this week. 20% I reached out to Nanci from PA, but not much else. I’m feeling like I need a purpose. And I need to reach back to Tanya … and more. So yeah, dropped the ball on this with all of the the redesign plans but I can pick it up this week.
- Lock in three intentional “connection” sessions (meetings or collaborative working blocks) to boost creativity and accountability—spread across different projects if possible. 90% I’m loving this notion of being clear about MY intentions when I connect and meet with people and I had a lot of good meeting this week.
You’ve given a thoughtful and honest breakdown of your Weekly Big 3 progress:
- Actionable prototype/wireframe with David Cole for Iva Koberg—**80%. You felt good about what you delivered, even if it wasn’t fully complete. I love that Iva’s feedback reinvigorated your work and gave further direction.
- Reignite marketing outreach—20%. You made an initial connection (Nanci from PA), but had trouble building momentum here, partly due to the heavy lift of redesign efforts. It sounds like you’re aware of who else needs attention (like Tanya) and can see yourself picking up those threads this week.
- Three “connection” sessions—90%. High marks here! Being intentional about *why you connect seems to resonate powerfully with you, and the quality of your interactions clearly benefited.
It strikes me that when you have clear ownership and defined next steps (Prototype with David/Iva, Connection Sessions), your progress soars—and when the purpose feels vague or gets crowded out by competing demands (Marketing Outreach), it’s harder to gain traction.
How are you feeling about these percentages? If we zoom in on the marketing piece, do you need new clarity on why this outreach matters—or does it just need a bit more structure/time blocked for action? And looking back on those high-impact connections, are there lessons there for how to tackle other goals?
Would you like to keep moving forward with more of the After-Action Review?
Absolutely—let’s keep this reflection rolling. Next, let’s dive into:
What worked? What didn’t? Why?
From your perspective this week:
- Which approaches or habits really helped you make progress on your goals?
- Where did things feel stuck, fizzle out, or just not click?
- If you step back and ask “why” for both the wins and the misses—what do you notice about your work style, environment, or support?
Share any patterns (positive or negative) that stood out for you as you acted on your Big 3 this week.
Would you like to see more after sharing your thoughts on what worked and what didn’t?
You’re doubling down on what you shared earlier—the balance of focused creative work and intentional meetings really powers your momentum. It’s clear that when you carve out time for deep individual progress and then switch gears into purposeful connections, your week feels productive and aligned. That mix seems to activate both sides of how you work best.
But I also hear you noticing a gap—those elements like outreach, team building, and contract negotiation just aren’t “braided in” yet at the same level. Maybe they feel less urgent or rewarding—or maybe they don’t have the same built-in rhythm as your creative/design flow and face-to-face collaborations.
Is it about priority? Is it about energy? Or is it more about habits and timing—like needing to assign a specific block each week so these tasks sit alongside your design sprints or meetings?
How would it look or feel different if you integrated these “missing threads” more seamlessly next week? What’s one small experiment you could try to braid outreach/team building/negotiation into your strong existing workflow?
Would you like to see the final question in this After-Action Review section?
That’s exactly the spirit—start small, observe, and iterate! You’re already showing a lot of intentionality around your creative flow and meetings. Now, what if you picked just one outreach or negotiation task to pair with a design sprint or immediately after a meeting—almost like “habit stacking”? Maybe you try sending one email right after your collaborative sessions while that connection energy is high, or block 15 minutes at the end of a solo work block to draft/reply/plan outreach.
By making it small and specific, you’re more likely to actually do it (and notice how it fits into your natural rhythm). Plus, the feedback will be clear—is this timing smooth? Do you need external accountability? Or does it actually pull focus from other priorities?
Would you like to move on to the final After-Action Review question about what you’ll continue or change based on this week?
Let’s bring this After-Action Review full circle with the last reflection:
What will you continue or change?
Based on all you’ve noticed so far—your creative flow, intentional meetings, and the new idea of a mini-experiment for outreach/team building/negotiation—what do you want to keep doing next week? What one thing might you tweak, test differently, or stop altogether?
This is your chance to lock in what’s working—and commit to a small adjustment where it matters most. What stands out as the best “next move” for you?
Would you like to proceed after sharing what you’ll continue or change?
Absolutely! You’re building real momentum with your intentional solo work and collaborative meetings—that’s a pattern you clearly want to continue. For next week, locking in that rhythm seems key.
As for what you’ll change, your openness to a small experiment stands out. A logical “next move” might be committing to just one focused outreach or contract/negotiation task each day—or even each week—right after a creative work block or meeting. By keeping it small but non-negotiable, you’re less likely to skip it, and you can track if this placement feels natural or forced.
This approach lets you keep the best of what already works and gently layer in the missing elements (outreach, team building, negotiation) in a way that doesn’t feel overwhelming.
Would you like to review your goals and do a list sweep in Section Two?
Section Two: GOAL REVIEW & LIST SWEEP
Let’s shift into a quick review and refresh of your goals and lists—this is where you update, delegate, or defer so nothing falls through the cracks. Here are your prompts:
- GOAL REVIEW – Are any larger goals shifting based on last week? Is there anything to clarify, remove, or add?
- DELEGATED & DEFERRED TASKS – Any tasks you want offload or push forward? Anything that can be paused?
- DAILY NOTES – Are there open loops or ideas from daily notes that still need action or follow up?
- TASK MANAGER – Have you updated your task manager/app/planner so it reflects what matters most for this coming week?
Take a moment to scan each area—what stands out as needing attention right now? Where do you see clutter—or clarity?
Would you like to keep moving after noting any updates here?
Build a business
Develop a platform
Grow a professional learning network
…to have an impact on how teachers and students use AI for human centered education
You’re crystal clear on your meta-goals:
- Build a business
- Develop a platform
- Grow a professional learning network
…all in service of making an impact on how teachers and students use AI for human-centered education. That clarity is powerful—it keeps your daily work pointed at something meaningful, not just busywork.
When you scan your current week’s projects and tasks, do you see anything that doesn’t fit these goals—or anything that needs to shift focus? Are there any “shoulds” or legacy tasks cluttering up your list that aren’t truly moving the needle?
What about delegated or deferred items? Is there something you could hand off, automate, or pause so you can double down on what matters most? And as you review notes and open loops—is there one idea or action hiding in plain sight that needs to become a priority (or be let go)?
Would you like to move forward with the next section: StreakTracker?
Section Three: STREAKTRACKER
Let’s track your progress on any habit-goals you’re aiming to build or maintain. For each of your current recurring habits or routines (could be daily, weekly, or other), rate yourself from 1-7—one for each day you completed the habit this week.
You can list up to 7 key habits here. Some examples might include:
- Morning Ritual
- Evening Ritual
- Outreach/Networking
- Deep Work Block
- Movement/Exercise
- Reflection/Journaling
- Learning/Professional Reading
Go ahead and fill in how many days (out of 7) you hit each target this past week—and take a moment to notice any patterns, wins, or places where you’d like more consistency.
Would you like to continue after you’ve shared your StreakTracker numbers?
You already gave a detailed view of your StreakTracker for the week:
- Morning Ritual 7/7
- Evening Ritual 1/7
- Outreach/Networking 2/7
- Deep Work Block 4/7
- Movement/Exercise 6/7
- Reflection/Journaling 3/7
- Learning/Professional Reading 3/7
You’re showing real strength in areas like your Morning Ritual and Movement, which are both huge foundations for sustainable focus and resilience. The Deep Work Block (4 out of 7) also stands out—clearly, you’re carving out protected time for high-value progress.
The consistency is less in areas like evening routines, outreach/networking, reflection, and professional learning—which matches some of what came up earlier around needing to “braid in” those threads more regularly.
What do these numbers tell you about your current rhythms? Any surprises or affirmations as you see it all on one page? If you could shift one number upward next week, which would make the biggest difference for how you feel or perform?
Would you like to see more—moving onto the Rejuvenation section?
Section Four: REJUVENATION
Let’s zoom out and check in on your energy reserves.
What are three ways you could sleep, eat, move, connect, or relax a bit better this week?
– Maybe it’s a 10-minute walk after lunch, one tech-free evening, an earlier bedtime, or scheduling coffee with a friend.
List three small “recharge” moves—then pick at least one to actually schedule (not just wish for).
How do you want to intentionally support your own resilience and creativity this week?
Would you like to continue after sharing your Rejuvenation strategies?
Section Five: WEEKLY OVERVIEW
Ready to set yourself up for a smooth, intentional week? Let’s review what’s coming:
- EVENTS: What appointments, calls, or key meetings are already booked?
- PROJECTS: Which ongoing projects need focus or have milestone moments this week?
- TASKS: Any essential tasks—big or small—you know you can’t drop?
- OTHER COMMITMENTS: Anything personal (family, community, fun) that needs protected space?
Take a moment and scan your calendar/planner. What do you see as the “immovable objects” or big rocks? Are there places where you could adjust to protect your solo work blocks and those all-important connection sessions?
Share your upcoming highlights—or any spots you’re worried might get crowded.
Would you like to keep moving after outlining your weekly overview?
Section Six: WEEKLY BIG 3
You’re almost at the finish line for your planning session! Now, let’s anchor your week by re-stating and sharpening your Weekly Big 3—the three objectives that will create real momentum and align with your larger goals.
Here’s what you set for the coming week:
1. Complete an actionable prototype or wireframe with David Cole to share with Iva Koberg by Thursday.
2. Reignite marketing outreach (including NWP Directors)—set up at least two concrete next steps or send two key messages this week.
3. Lock in three intentional “connection” sessions (meetings or collaborative working blocks) to boost creativity and accountability—spread across different projects if possible.
Looking at these, do they still feel right after all your review? Is there one you want to tweak based on fresh insights from your After-Action Review, StreakTracker, or Rejuvenation plan? Are these truly the most important levers for impact—or is something missing?
If you’re happy with them as written, great! If not, make a quick adjustment now so you head into the week crystal clear about where to aim.
Would you like to finish out with the Weekly Planner section?
1. Complete an actionable prototype or wireframe with David Cole to share with the community on Wednesday at TTT and into Friday for feedback.
2. Reignite marketing outreach (including NWP Directors)—get advice on what Writing Projects need and how to reach out more specifically and effectively.
3. Lock in three intentional “connection” sessions (meetings or collaborative working blocks) to boost creativity and accountability—spread across different projects if possible.
Section Seven: WEEKLY PLANNER
Your refined Weekly Big 3 show even more clarity and alignment:
1. Prototype/Wireframe for Community Feedback: You’ve specified Wednesday’s TTT session and Friday for feedback—anchoring your deliverable to real community engagement.
2. Marketing Outreach—Advice-Driven: Smart shift here! You’ll seek direct advice from NWP Directors about what Writing Projects need and how best to reach out, making your next steps both targeted and collaborative.
3. Three Intentional Connection Sessions: Keeping this broad across projects but with a focus on boosting creativity/accountability—you know the value these bring.
Let’s map these objectives into your actual days so you’re moving intentionally every step of the way. Here’s a sample structure for the week based on your rhythm, habits, and touchpoints:
