Part seven · Week one

Day 1 — Fuel, and the love question
Write your Chapter 18 fuel statement: the wound, what it taught you, the specific goal it's fueling. One paragraph. Add one honest line: is a romantic wound in the mix, even if it isn't the loudest one?

Day 2 — Four-day write, day one
Begin the writing exercise from Chapter 7. Pick one specific wound. If the romantic one is loudest, pick that. Write, unfiltered, 15 to 20 minutes.

Day 3 — Same wound, day two
Continue the writing exercise. Do not switch wounds to stay comfortable.

Day 4 — Same wound, day three
Continue. Name which animal is running: regret, shame, or grief.

Day 5 — Finish the write
Day four of the exercise. Set up your small-wins tracker from Chapter 19 and log today's entry.

Day 6 — The funeral nobody gave you
Run the private grief ritual from Chapter 8 for one specific loss. If this is a relationship, write to the future you lost, not only to the person. Close it deliberately.

Day 7 — Week one review
Reread what you wrote this week. Log the tracker. No new writing today: just notice what's already different. Name, in one sentence, whether you have been in the orbit or in the armor.
