Presence Over Perfection: Show Up Even When You're Spent

Your family doesn't need perfection, they need you to actually be there. This lesson gives you a transition ritual, phone-free blocks, and cues that pull you back into the room when your head is still at work.

• Practice a 10-minute arrival ritual that transitions you from work to home for 5 straight days and rate its effect each day.
• Complete one fully present, phone-free 20-minute block with each family member, weekly for 2 weeks.
• Identify your top 3 half-present habits and install a replacement cue for each (like leaving your phone in another room at dinner).
