BEFORE THE WORKSHOP

Download Your Resources

Each resource comes in two versions. Online opens in your browser β€” you can type into it directly and your answers save automatically on this device. Printable is a clean, ink-saving PDF β€” best if you want to write by hand.

⚑ Do this one first: run the Distraction Audit before Sunday. It takes about 5 minutes β€” and Part 3 of the workshop will hit completely differently when it's your interruptions on the page, not hypothetical ones.
