First — what's prompting this check-in today?

I'm feeling stuck or restless and want to see why

I'm in a big transition — career, move, relationship

Just a regular self-check — I like knowing where I stand

When Monday morning arrives, how do you feel about your work?

Dread — I regularly fantasize about quitting

Flat — I'm coasting, and I know it

Mostly good — engaged days outnumber draining ones

Energized — my work feels meaningful and I'm growing

How does money feel in your life right now?

Stressful — money worries follow me around all day

Tight — one surprise bill would rattle everything

Stable — life is covered, though I'm not building much

Calm — I have a plan, a buffer, and I trust both

How would you describe your energy on a typical day?

Depleted — I'm tired even after resting

Running low — caffeine and willpower carry me through

Decent — solid habits most weeks, with some slips

Strong — I sleep well, move often, and feel at home in my body

When did you last learn or try something that stretched you?

A few months ago — life keeps getting in the way

Sometime this month — I make space for it when I can

This week — growth is built into my routine

How connected do you feel in your romantic life — or with the search for one?

Lonely — this part of my life aches to think about

Distant — we coexist more than we connect, or I've quietly stopped looking

Comfortable — solid and warm, though the spark needs tending

Deeply connected — there's real intimacy, honesty, and fun

How nourished do you feel by your friendships and family?

Isolated — I feel like I'm doing life alone

Thin — most ties have faded into small talk

Fairly nourished — good people around, though I'd love more depth

Deeply nourished — I have people I could call at 2 a.m.

When was the last time you did something purely for the joy of it?

Fun feels like something other people have time for

Months ago, probably — I can't name it exactly

Within the last few weeks — not enough, but real

Within days — play is a non-negotiable in my week

How does your physical space — home and workspace — make you feel?

Trapped — my environment actively works against me

Drained — the clutter and chaos quietly wear on me

Comfortable — pleasant enough, just a little neglected

Recharged — my space supports exactly how I want to live

How closely does an average day match what actually matters to you?

Not at all — I'm living someone else's schedule

Barely — urgent things always beat important ones

Somewhat — the important things usually find room

Closely — my calendar reflects my values

Imagine nothing changes for a whole year. How do you feel about that?

Honestly scared — something has to change

Uneasy — I'd regret letting another year slip

Content — steady progress, no alarm bells

Excited — I'm on a path I chose

How Balanced Is Your Life? The Wheel of Life Scorecard

The Wheel of Life is the classic coaching check-in — used for decades to turn a vague sense of "something's off" into one clear picture. In about 2 minutes, you'll map the eight areas that make up a full life:

Career & Work · Money & Finances
Health & Energy · Personal Growth
Love & Romance · Friends & Family
Fun & Recreation · Home & Environment

You'll get a life balance score out of 100, your personal wheel, and the one area where change pays off fastest. Answer honestly — the wheel only works if it's true.
