Session Structure

Phase 1: Discovery & Setup (5-10 minutes)

I'll ask you questions to understand:

Which Life Book resonates with you
Your current life situation
Your transformation goals
Your immediate priorities

Phase 2: Deep Dive Sessions (Each Pillar: 10-15 minutes)

For each of the 7 pillars, I'll guide you through:

Current State Assessment - Where are you now? (1-10 rating + reflection)
Vision Creation - Where do you want to be? (Future state)
Systems Design - What habits/systems will get you there?
Action Planning - Next 30/60/90 day roadmap

Each pillar session creates a markdown file in your personal soulbook folder.

Phase 3: Integration & Export (5 minutes)

Review your complete Soulbook
Make final edits
Generate beautifully formatted PDF

Total Time: 2-3 hours (can be done in multiple sessions)

File Structure Created

When you complete the process, you'll have:

soulbook-personal/

The Questions I'll Ask (Sample)

For Each Pillar:

Current State:

"On a scale of 1-10, how satisfied are you with this area of life?"
"What's working well?"
"What's causing friction or pain?"
"What have you tried before?"

Vision State:

"Describe your ideal state in this pillar 1 year from now"
"What would a 10/10 look like for you?"
"What becomes possible when this pillar is strong?"

Systems & Habits:

"What daily/weekly rituals would support this pillar?"
"What systems need to be built?"
"What needs to be eliminated or changed?"

Action Planning:

"What are your top 3 priorities in this area for the next 30 days?"
"What's one micro-commitment you can start this week?"
"What support or resources do you need?"
