A two-minute evening check-in

Choose a small closing question and a clear stopping point so the conversation can stay short.

Try this

  1. Agree that the exchange is brief before starting, and choose one practical question.
  2. Let each person answer without interruption. If the answer reveals a larger topic, name a later conversation instead of forcing it into the remaining seconds.

A worked example

“What should we make a little easier tomorrow?”

An invented example to adapt, not a real exchange or a script you have to follow.

Before you leave it here

End with one feasible adjustment. Do not turn the time limit into a speed test for feelings.

This is a voluntary planning exercise. Keep your notes private, adapt the language, and leave any question unanswered. It does not require Ourling or a purchase.
