The 7-Day Family Reality Check Kit
Discover if you're building the family culture you imagine—or drifting toward a future you didn't choose.
When was the last time your family did something together that felt meaningful, not mandatory?
If you can't remember, you've probably fallen into the trap most high-achieving parents face:
You allocate time to whoever screams loudest and energy to whatever offers the fastest reward. Work gives you immediate feedback—a solved problem, a finished project, visible progress. But creating a family culture your kids will want to replicate? That won't show returns for decades.
So even though you believe family is your top priority, you unconsciously allocate fewer resources to what matters most.
The unfortunate reality: By the time the consequences become visible—distant teenagers, a spouse who feels like a stranger—it's too late to change course.
The good news is you can avoid a drifting family if you take intentional steps now, because aligning your family starts with the example you set. This kit gives you everything you need to set that example and be the parent your family needs to thrive.
What You Get:
📋 The 7-Day Tracking System
Simple daily log (5 minutes) to capture where your time and energy actually go across 5 life areas: Work, Family Time, Personal Goals, Logistics, and Drift.
📊 The Gap Analysis Framework
Compare what you say matters most against where your resources actually go.
💬 A Family Conversation Guide
How to share your discoveries with your family—because kids learn more from watching you course-correct than from you being perfect.
🎯 The Micro-Adjustments Planner
Choose 3 small experiments that close the gap. Includes specific examples for Personal Boundaries, Family Rituals, and Making Your Goals Visible.
💑 Bonus: 10 Questions for Spouses
Deep conversation prompts to discuss your findings together and create a shared commitment to change.

Who This Is For
This is for intentional parents who:
- Feel like they're always busy but never present
- Wonder if their kids will remember a stressed, distracted household
- Have personal goals but feel guilty pursuing them
- Want proof that their daily choices align with their values
- Refuse to just "survive" family life
Not for you if: You're looking for a quick fix or family productivity hacks. This is about identity, not efficiency.
What You'll Discover in 7 Days:
✅ The exact percentage of your time going to each life area (prepare to be surprised)
✅ Where you're unconsciously saying "yes" that's pushing out what matters most
✅ The gap between your stated values and your actual resource allocation
✅ Which micro-adjustments will close your biggest gaps fastest
✅ How to involve your family in the solution (so you're not fixing this alone)
"The time when it's most important to invest in your family is when it appears you don't need to." This workbook helps you invest before it's too late.
Why This Works
This isn't theory. It's based on Clayton Christensen's resource allocation framework from How Will You Measure Your Life?—the same strategic thinking Fortune 500 companies use, applied to what matters most: your family.
One week of tracking won't transform your family. But seeing clearly changes everything.

Frequently Asked Questions:
Q: Is this just a time tracker?
No. It's a resource allocation audit. You track both time AND energy across life areas, then compare against your stated values. The gap reveals where you're drifting.
Q: What if I already know I'm not spending enough time with family?
Knowing and seeing are different. The math makes it undeniable. Plus, the framework helps you see where you're saying "yes" that's pushing family out—that's what creates change.
Q: Do I need to get my whole family to do this?
No. You track YOUR time for 7 days. Day 8 is when you share your findings with your family. This keeps the barrier low.
Q: What if my spouse isn't on board?
Start with yourself. Your changes will be visible. The Day 8 conversation guide helps you invite them in without pressure. Many spouses join after seeing your results.
Q: Is this another thing making me feel like I'm failing as a parent?
No. This is about seeing clearly so you can course-correct. The goal isn't perfection—it's alignment. Small changes compound into transformation.
