I made a SUP surf foil board and a wing foil board a couple years ago and here is the status update after using these boards regularly for 2 years.

I first heard of the 5 Levels of Agreement from Dr. Neha Sangwan, she gave a talk at a Hay House event I attended. Phycology today wrote an article on the talk.
If people are not keeping the agreements we make there are usually core wounds from childhood that are coming up. In this next video I give an example from my childhood where my father and I had different levels of agreement on time:
