As for Chelsea, she and I came up with a month-long plan of action based on the values that mattered to her. In addition to writing her daily to-dos on Post-its (e.g., work on cover letter, meet a friend for a walk), each week, she’d deliberately consider which values mattered to her, whether being active or strengthening her connections. Chelsea had mentioned that she wanted to contribute to causes, prioritize her health, and pursue closeness with others, so she began researching opportunities to follow her passions.
