Log your interactions with the people in your life. Record how each moment felt — the energy it gave you, the depth it had.

A pattern you can see. What you'll discover - Who gives you energy — and who quietly takes it - Which relationships are growing deeper over time - How your social life actually feels, not just how you think it does - The moments worth protecting, and the ones worth reconsidering Private by design - Your relationships are the most personal thing there is.
