You are nearly there. These two weeks are about consolidation — distilling what you have built into something you can carry forward past Day 90 without needing the scaffold anymore.
This week, each corner writes a personal protocol — a one-page document you can return to. Not a list of intentions. A set of working agreements you have made with yourself based on the past 11 weeks of practice.
Corner One
Your Corner One protocol
Write your personal working agreements. Include: the three things you will protect, the script you will use when you are over-extended, the one person you will call when it gets heavy, the signal that tells you it is time to step back, and the one structural ask you are still pursuing. This document is yours. Keep it somewhere you will see it.

My signal that I am over-extended: ___
My script for that moment: ___
One person I trust with the weight: ___
The structural ask I am still pursuing: ___
One thing I will not do again: ___
Corner Two
Your Corner Two protocol
Write your working agreements. Include: the competence ladder rung you are on, the questions you can now answer yourself, the script you use before asking for help, the one area where you are still learning, and what you will do the next time you freeze at the door.

My script before asking: ___
What I do when I freeze: ___

Corner Three
Your Corner Three protocol
Write your working agreements. Include: the three habits you have built, the script you use for attribution, the signal that tells you the room is not balanced, what you do with that signal, and the one structural thing you are still working on.

My attribution script: ___
My signal that the room is unbalanced: ___
What I do when I see that signal: ___
The one structural thing I am still working on: ___

Corner Four
Your Corner Four protocol
Write your working agreements. Include: how you choose when to bridge, how you protect your energy when you choose not to, the language you use for your complexity, the one person who sees both sides of you, and what you will do when the organisation's categories don't fit.
Protocol template

How I protect myself when I don't: ___
My language for my complexity: ___
One person who sees both sides: ___
What I do when the categories don't fit: ___

Week 12 — Prepare for Day 90
Day 90 is in a few days. Before you get there, spend this week reflecting on the full arc. Not just what changed — but what stayed hard, what surprised you, and what you want to carry forward.
Corner One
Before Day 90
Three months ago you walked into a workshop carrying something that had no name. Now it has a name. Does having a name for it make it lighter? Or does naming it just make the weight more visible? Both are true for most people. What is true for you?
Prepare for Day 90
Think about: one thing that changed. One thing that didn't. One thing you are still asking of this organisation. Hold those three things — you will articulate them on Day 90.
Corner Two
Before Day 90
Three months ago you were frozen at the door. Where are you now? Not perfectly competent — that was never the goal. But moving. Doing the reading. Showing up imperfectly. That is the whole practice. Has the freeze got smaller?
Prepare for Day 90
Think about: one moment where you acted instead of freezing. One thing you now know that you did not before. One area where the freeze is still real. Day 90 is where you say all three out loud.
Corner Three
Before Day 90
Three months ago you may not have seen the room clearly. Now you do — at least more clearly. Seeing it does not mean fixing it. But it means you are no longer part of the invisibility. What are you going to do with what you see? That is the question Day 90 asks.
Prepare for Day 90
Think about: one thing you see now that you didn't before. One habit you have built. One thing you are still avoiding. Be honest about all three.
Corner Four
Before Day 90
Three months ago your position had no framework. Now it has a partial one — imperfect, incomplete, but better than nothing. You have added to it from your own experience. That is not a small contribution. What do you want the next person in your position to know?
Prepare for Day 90
Think about: what you now know about your position that you didn't before. What the framework still misses. What you want to pass forward. Day 90 is where you say it.
