Something got to you this week. More than it should have, probably.
Before you begin
You snapped, or went cold, or said yes again when you meant no. This is fifteen minutes with that one moment.
You write, it asks, one question at a time. It slows you down at the point the feeling switched on and stays there longer than you would on your own. You will not fix anything in fifteen minutes. You will probably see it more clearly.
It is built from the method Chad uses with clients.
You can write or use the optional microphone to dictate one response at a time. The microphone is active only while you are recording. Most sittings take 10 to 20 minutes, and you can stop at any time.
Information notice
How your information is used
Your entries are sent to an AI service so the companion can respond. Herst Wellness also records information about how the companion is used, including page visits, start attempts, session length, response times, errors, automatically estimated topic categories, steps the companion invited, and steps the participant's response appeared to demonstrate. This information helps us improve the experience and understand what people find useful.
Herst Wellness keeps structured usage information, without the exact words of your sitting, for up to 12 months. If you choose to share your sitting or submit a written feedback comment, that material is kept separately for up to 90 days.
If you use voice input, your browser records only while the recording control is active. The audio is sent through Herst Wellness's server to OpenAI for transcription, then discarded by Herst Wellness after the transcript returns. The transcript is placed in the response box so you can review, edit, or delete it before sending. Audio is never saved to the Herst Wellness analytics store.
Your exact written conversation will not be saved for later review unless you separately choose to share it. Please do not enter names, identifying details, or anything you would not want processed by an AI service.
This is an AI-guided experience shaped by Chad's teaching and coaching method. It is not Chad, one-on-one coaching, psychotherapy, medical care, or crisis support.
Optional. This choice is off unless you select it. A shared sitting is kept separately for up to 90 days. It is not permission to use your words in advertising, a testimonial, or a public quotation.
