A free email course for when pushing yourself has stopped working.
Does this sound familiar?
You know what needs doing.
You’ve told yourself to get on with it, more than once.
And somehow the pushing has become part of the weight.
Is it okay, as an experiment, to see what happens without the pressure?
That’s the question the whole week is built around.
You don’t have to believe it will work. You don’t have to change anything. We’ll simply notice what happens.
What arrives in your inbox
Seven short emails, one a day. Each one holds a small experiment, never a task list.
And the experiments don’t have to happen on the day they arrive. Each one will keep until you’re ready for it.
- Welcome
A question before we begin. Yes, no and maybe are all welcome answers. - Day 1: Just notice
Change nothing. Notice when the pressure shows up. - Day 2: Just this hour
Begin something you’ve been meaning to do, for one hour only. - Day 3: An hour of nothing
Stop on purpose, with things still undone. - Day 4: A longer stretch
Bring the to-do list. Begin, pause, come back. - Day 5: What did you see?
No new experiment. Just a look back over the week. - The closing note
A last hello, and where to find company if you’d like some.
This might be for you if
You’re tired of making yourself do things, and curious about another way.
You’d like to see for yourself whether things can get done without the pushing.
You’re happy to read along even if you don’t try every experiment.
This probably isn’t for you if
You’re after a system, a planner or a productivity method. There’s nothing to follow here.
You’d like to be told exactly what to do and how.

A little about me
I’m Jen. For nearly twenty years I’ve been having conversations with people about what matters to them.
I’ve seen how often things move once the pressure eases. This experiment is a small way of finding out whether that’s true for you.
Ready to try it?
The emails are free, and they start as soon as you sign up.
No pressure, no pitch. Unsubscribe any time.
