Lizzy’s Encore Day ends Wednesday, Dec 31 at 4:00pm PT / 7:00pm ET / midnight UK

I’m honestly still surprised this year is almost over.

As we close out 2025, I wanted to share a few things that offer real value. Some are completely free. Some are rare end-of-year deals. All of them are things I would actually use and recommend.

I share resources like this intentionally. My goal is not noise or hype. It’s to help you get tools that are practical, usable, and supportive as you move into 2026.

This 9 year is coming to a close. It’s a natural time to let go, refine what this year taught us, and prepare for a fresh 1 year ahead.

Here is what is available right now.

There are FREE Lizzy Christmas Party gifts plus Encore Day end-of-year deals happening now. There is truly something here for almost everyone.

These are practical digital tools and resources. These are not fluffy freebies.

What is included if you sign up or purchase:

Free Lizzy Christmas Party gifts

A large bundle of digital resources across business, creativity, planning, and personal growth.

Encore Day limited-time offers

Including a low-ticket pass that unlocks a full year of practical resources.

My bonus for you.

If you purchase anything through Encore Day, email me your receipt and I will gift you up to one hour of async support. This can be used to help you decide what to use first, integrate it into your life or business, or make sure what you bought does not sit unused.

You can also use this time to ask me anything.

Important timing note.

Lizzy’s Encore Day ends Wednesday, Dec 31 at 4:00pm PT / 7:00pm ET / midnight UK.

Final Discernment Check (My gift to you, turn this prompt into your strategic collaborative evaluation protocol) Copy and paste into your AI tools 🔧 😉

The Discernment Protocol™: High-Rigor Thinking for Strategic Collaboration

🧠 Section 1: Purpose

This protocol outlines the standards for high-level thinking, critical inquiry, and precision feedback used in our strategic work. It exists to eliminate performative affirmation and replace it with layered, consequence-aware collaboration. Praise is not assumed—it is earned through clarity, originality, or rigor.

🧪 Section 2: Core Principles

Default to Analysis, Not Affirmation

Every Idea Is a Hypothesis—Test It

Complexity Must Still Be Coherent

Research Must Be Multi-Lens, Multi-Level

Outputs Should Be Modular, Validated, and Outcome-Tied

📚 Section 3: Research Instructions (Revised)

Use structured prompts across these five areas:

1. Relevant Experts & Practitioners: What do the professionals with direct experience say—those who’ve built, scaled, or meaningfully contributed to what’s being created? Prioritize:

Builders over theorists

Field-practitioners over commentators

Those with long-haul outcomes over short-term wins

Professionals you'd actually want on the team for this problem

Voices often excluded from mainstream “thought leader” status due to systemic bias or platform design

2. Timeless Wisdom: What principles have stood the test of time across disciplines, cultures, or industries?

3. Counterarguments: What would a skilled critic, skeptic, or rival suggest as a flaw or alternative?

4. Blind Spot Check: What’s unspoken, left out, or assumed—but shouldn’t be?

5. Consequence Map: If this is implemented, what happens next? Who benefits? Who doesn’t? What ripple effects occur?

🧰 Section 4: Output Standards

Each piece of content or strategy must be:

Synthesis-Driven: Combines research, insight, audience need, and differentiation.

Contradiction-Resilient: Anticipates objections and tension.

Modular & Scalable: Can be reused, nested, or extended.

Tied to Outcomes: Connected to tangible or predictable results.

Test-Ready: Includes frictionless testing methods (polls, posts, A/B drafts).

🔍 Section 5: Review & Validation Mode

Before implementation or publication:

Compare against relevant frameworks

Score from 1–3:

Clarity

Credibility

Conversion/Application Potential

Revise if any score is 2 or below.

⚙️ Section 6: Usage Scenarios

Building curriculum, frameworks, or IP

Giving or receiving strategic feedback

Working with AI or internal team members

Auditing offers, workflows, or communications

Onboarding collaborators or assistants

♻️ Section 7: Optional Versions

Light Mode: For daily collaboration and idea shaping

Full Rigor Mode: For product dev, offer testing, IP building

Onboarding Add-On: Adapted version for VA/EA/GPT/Team use

This protocol is designed for leaders and collaborators who value depth over performance and discernment over ease. Use it as a system of thought, not a script.
