Some weeks need a planner AND a some emotional support in sticker form. 😂
This was one of those weeks where one day was empty and another was NEXT LEVEL. Working in a deadline-heavy field meant there were a few days when every single must-do needed to happen to get the final product ready for submission. On weeks like this, I am especially glad to have a little cuteness to calm my senses.
This kit had been sitting in my stash for years, waiting for its moment, and deadline week was it. I paired it with the gorgeous sunflower blossoms from HanCanPlan and L🌻VE how it all came together.
We wrapped up the week with an IKEA trip, a Scout scavenger hunt and one very important holiday task: ordering our advent calendars. I had been refreshing the sites like a crazy person since October started, waiting to see if the one we wanted would finally appear. 😂
And that's exactly the kind of little holiday task I want out of my head before December gets here. The Merry Momentum Bundle includes a holiday planner to help you navigate the holiday hustle year after year, plus access to my full goal-setting course so you can keep building that momentum into 2027.

Q4 gets busy FAST. 😅
The holidays sneak up, the calendar fills up and before we know it, every weekend is booked.
So before the hustle takes over, let's take a look at the whole season.
My new Q4 planning video walks you through my 3-step system for organizing the season:
SEE THE SEASON: Get those important dates and commitments onto one big-picture calendar.
DECIDE WHAT MATTERS: Create your Q4 bucket list, star the traditions you'd be genuinely sad to miss and plan for the work that happens before the big events.
PROTECT YOUR PEACE: Look at your weekends, find weekday opportunities, request PTO and get comfortable with "Let me check my calendar."
The goal isn't to pack more into Q4.
It's to create a season that works for YOU.

Paper. Stickers. Stationery. ART. Basically, my love language. 😂
I went to Paperworld Expo with my best friend and our almost-teenage daughters and we had the BEST little girls' weekend.
We grabbed VIP tickets so we could shop before general admission, wandered through all the gorgeous artist booths and somehow managed to bring home enough stuff to cover BOTH beds in our hotel room. Because restraint was not on the itinerary.
And as a designer, I absolutely loved seeing so much original, hand-drawn artwork throughout the show. There were so many beautiful things to look at! And yes... I may have caught a few TYPOs in sticker form. 👀🌴(Publisher Brain!)
I shared the full-ish haul in a new bonus video on YouTube if you want to see what made it home with me.

☕ CAFFEINE + CRAFTS. The real highlight of the week was Paper World Stationery Expo! ( )We turned it into a whole weekend with our best friends, combining stationery, stickers, quality time and a hotel stay. Basically, my ideal weekend. 😂
There is something very satisfying about wandering around a room full of paper and stickers with people who completely understand why you need to stop and examine every single piece of paper.
And yes, there was a haul. Obviously. I'll be sharing more from the experience soon!
And because regular life was happening right alongside the fun stuff, I'm always grateful for a little meal-prep backup.

🍂📒 September = fresh routines & fuller calendars
This month I'm focusing on one thing: creating a little structure before Q4 gets wild. I'm a firm believer that planning doesn't have to be perfect to be useful. Sometimes the win is simply getting the things floating around in your brain onto paper.

NEW RHYTHMS.
Week 37 had a nice mix of work and fun. Labor Day gave the whole family a built-in day of rest, which naturally meant we had to barbecue something delicious. 😂

A little planning, a little grilling and a whole lot of getting back into our fall rhythm. This is also the time of year when I start appreciating anything that makes weeknight dinners easier.

September is giving TRANSITION. 💜
August was... a month. Schedule changes, cancellations, illness and plenty of plans that did not quite go according to plan. But even in the mess, some really good things stuck.

My morning walks? Working.
Reading goal? Barely on track, but still on track.
Girl Scout calendar? FINALLY DONE. 🎉
Closet revamp? Still a work in progress.
And apparently, I have officially learned that I am allowed to DNF a book that isn't working for me. 😂

So for September, I'm focusing on building the routines that are starting to stick, refreshing the things that feel a little stale and getting myself ready for Q4 before the holiday craziness arrives.

I'm also working on:
♥ A rebrand project
♥ A wardrobe refresh
♥ More consistent movement
♥ Decluttering + deep cleaning

And yes, I'm pulling it all together in my Monthly Overview worksheet, which you can download FREE anytime from my website. If you're ready for your own September reset, go grab the worksheet and make a plan that works for your real life.
🎥 The full September Goals video is up on YouTube!

What are you focusing on this month: routines, rejuvenation or a little bit of both?
