The Real Reason I Built My Productivity Tools (And Why They’re So Damn Simple)
Let me tell you something I don’t say enough:
I didn’t start building planning tools because I was the most productive person I knew.
I started building them because I was the one drowning.
Drowning in tabs.
Drowning in to-do lists that never got shorter.
Drowning in responsibilities I technically chose, but somehow resented.
I didn’t need another 90-day goal planner that required me to map my entire life on color-coded paper with four different pen colors and a sticker system.
I needed something that would meet me where I actually was: tired, overwhelmed, and doing my best.
I didn’t need “motivation.” I needed relief.
It wasn’t that I didn’t know how to work hard.
(If anything, I was working too hard for too little.)
It was that I didn’t know how to build a system that could hold me when I didn’t feel like holding myself.
I needed something flexible, forgiving, and functional.
Something that didn’t assume I was waking up at 5am to conquer the day. (Because some days, I just cannnnnoooottt.)
Something that wouldn’t fall apart the minute life got chaotic.
Something that helped me see myself clearly—not just check theboxes.
So I made it.
For me, at first. And then, quietly, for other people too.
Everything in my shop started with this question:
What would make life just a little lighter today?
Not: What’s the most “optimized” way to organize my day?
Not: What would make me look like I’ve got it all together on Pinterest?
Just: What would help me show up with more clarity, calm, and kindness—especially on the hard days?
That’s how every tool I’ve created was born.
The Time Audit Challenge came from noticing how disconnected I felt from how my time was actually being spent. I didn’t want to micromanage every hour—I just wanted to understand where my energy was going and why I was so exhausted all the time.
The Clarity to Completion Course wasn’t built around hustle. It was built around self-trust. Around breaking that loop of “I should be doing more” and instead, learning to do the next right thing.
The Notion templates? Those came from craving a calm, flexible system that worked the way my brain works—not how some productivity guru told me it should.
Why they’re so simple (on purpose)
My tools don’t require 15 hours of setup or a certification in workflow design.
They’re intentionally lightweight. Because the people I built them for—maybe people like you—don’t need more noise. They need clear, supportive structure that adapts with their life.
Most of the people I work with are brilliant, capable, high-functioning humans… who are also low-key exhausted and deeply craving a better rhythm.
They don’t need someone to fix them.
They need tools that support who they already are.
If that’s you…
If you’ve ever thought:
“I know what I need to do, I just can’t seem to make myself do it.”
“I’m constantly bouncing between ideas but never finishing anything.”
“If one more person tells me to just ‘prioritize better’ I might scream…”
Then just know: I see you.
And I built these tools for exactly this version of you.
Not your ideal self.
Not your ‘someday when I’m more disciplined’ self.
You. Right now.
Simple. Supportive. Unintimidating.
Like a warm reset button with a clean interface.

If you’ve never explored the shop, now’s a good time to poke around. You might just find the thing you didn’t even know you needed.
🛍 Here’s where everything lives
And if you already have a few of my tools? First of all—thank you. Second, maybe this is your nudge to re-open one of them and check in with where you are. You don’t have to be behind to begin again. Or if you have questions about them, or need help making them your own. Shoot me an email! I’d love to hear from you. (And pssst…. this also helps me figure out ways to make my templates better and smarter. So seriously, don’t hesitate to reach out!)
We don’t need more pressure. We need more permission.
And sometimes, the simplest systems are the ones that actually stick.
