This episode kicks off a three-part mini-series on Bullet Journaling with a personal story. I share how I discovered the Bullet Journal Method at a moment in my life when everything felt like too much—burnout, stress, and decision fatigue were taking over. I wasn’t looking for a planner or productivity tool. I was looking for a way to catch my breath and reconnect with myself. That’s exactly what the BuJo gave me.
I talk about how this simple method—just a notebook and a pen—helped me build trust in myself again, make decisions more easily, and track what actually mattered. It helped me find peace in the chaos and even recover my sense of creativity. Over time, it grew from a personal anchor to an essential tool in how I run my business, support my clients, and structure my life.
This isn’t an episode about how to set up a perfect Bullet Journal. It’s about how the practice met me where I was—and how it might meet you, too. If you’re curious about journaling or just want to hear a heartfelt reflection on what it means to find your own rhythm, this one’s for you.
PS I'm also announcing a very exciting challenge for the summer!
