This plain text version is stripped back on purpose. No fancy layouts, no clutter — just words on the page. It works well with screen readers and is easier if you need a simpler view.

If there’s something we’ve missed or if you’ve got feedback that could make this more inclusive, we’d love to hear it. We’re always trying to do better — and we actually mean that.

There’s no one way. Some people read straight through, others dip in and out. You might only manage one or two questions at a time — that still counts.

This is yours now. Keep it simple. Use it however it helps.

Not necessarily. You can sit with it quietly, but you can also glance at a question while making tea, on a break, or when you need a nudge. There are no rules and no deadlines.

That’s always possible. This isn’t a magic fix. Confidence isn’t something you unlock once and keep forever.

Think of it more as planting ideas and reminders. Some might land today, others might feel useful later. If it doesn’t click, that’s okay — you can come back when you’re ready, or leave it behind without guilt.

No. This is support and reflection, not therapy or coaching.
