Determining actionable events for gamified health goals based upon user communications

A system, comprising:

• a memory configured to store program code;
• and
• a processor coupled to the memory, wherein the processor, in response to executing the program code, is configured to initiate operations including:
• extracting a plurality of conversation elements from communications of a user;
• matching the plurality of conversation elements to activities of the user that are correlated with a gamified health goal of the user;
• determining at least one of the activities matched to selected ones of the plurality of conversation elements having an affinity to the gamified health goal that exceeds an affinity threshold;
• and
• providing the at least one of the activities as an elaboration of the gamified health goal.
