OpenAI-powered post-class recovery workflow that validates student workout input, returns mindful guidance for invalid submissions, and generates personalized recovery advice for valid responses.

Context
Students needed a simple guided way to check in after barre class and receive tailored recovery advice without requiring manual coaching or staff follow-up.
Approach
Built two connected n8n workflows: the intake flow validates and sanitizes form input, returns a mindful response when data is invalid, and otherwise sends the submission to an OpenAI recovery assistant before formatting and returning personalized advice; a separate error monitor logs failures and emails the admin.
