When You Know Something Needs to Change
You are in the right place. This is the companion page printed in the book: whenseries.com/companion/06/.
For the thing that is no longer working, the reasons you stay, and a change small enough to review. You can take the problem seriously without changing everything at once.
Use the prompt in the book
Choose a chapter and a prompt title that fit today. The numbers on this page match the book.
Type the starting prompt into a text chat. Replace the square brackets with your own context. Leave out names, identifying details and private documents.
Choose a follow-up, correct an assumption, or ask for a smaller step. Stop when the conversation has done enough.
Lines worth keeping nearby:
- Ask me one question at a time.
- That is too general. Use the details I have given you.
- You are assuming something I have not said. Check with me first.
The book is complete on its own. All 64 conversations, follow-ups and stopping points are in the printed pages. This public page helps you use them. It does not stand in for the book.

Keep the choices yours
The exercises help you name friction and test a modest arrangement. They are not a plan for a dramatic exit, and they leave the decision with you.
These exercises support reflection and practical planning. They do not provide diagnosis, therapy, or individual legal, financial or medical advice. An AI can misunderstand, invent details or agree too readily. You can reject its suggestions. If there is immediate danger, or you feel unable to keep yourself safe, contact your local emergency or health service. In the UK, call 999 in an emergency. A prompt is not emergency support.
Public sources
The useful resource in this book is the exercise in front of you: one prompt, your own details, and a place to stop. No separate public organisation is listed for this volume.
