How do I find an accountability partner?
Having an accountability partner is an optional, but highly encouraged supplement to the program.
An accountability partner is a fellow student that you meet with regularly-- to hold each other accountable for doing the work you committed to, to give each other feedback, and to have fun and connect!
To find an Accountability Partner:
- Log into the program platform (learn.punchybooks.co)
- Navigate to the #AccountabilityPartners channel on the bottom left of your dashboard
- Post in this channel your topic and availability
- If you don't get a lot of engagement on your post, we also recommend scrolling through the Member Directory to find someone you think might be a good fit based on their info, and sending them a direct message or email.
- You can filter the results by tags such as Location/Time Zone, Book topic, etc. in order to find a good fit!
- Additionally, make sure to mark "yes" on your profile under Looking for an Accountability Partner-- so that when other members are scrolling through the directory, they know they can reach out to you!
- Once you've found your good fit, reach out to the person of your choice directly and schedule a meeting with them via any platform you'd like (Zoom, FaceTime, phone call, etc.).
If you're happy with your match-- great! I recommend meeting once a week if your schedule allows. If you are unhappy with your match, simply repeat the process as many weeks as needed.
Please show up to your accountability partner meetings, or at least be courteous enough to reach out to your partner to cancel/reschedule. If your partner is ever unsupportive during your call, please email us at
support@punchybooks.co and they will be removed from the program. We expect you to be respectful of each other, and have no tolerance for other behavior.
