So happy that we had some sunshine yesterday! 🌞 So happy that we had some sunshine yesterday! 🌞 I took full advantage. I had a walk, did some yoga outside, read a good book, invited some friends over to relax in the garden in the heat and then swam in the sea together in the evening! 🏊🏼‍♀️ But inviting more sunshine into your life isn’t just about the weather (although it often helps!) Creating those happy moments is sometimes your responsibility to be proactive. Put yourself out there. Ask friends over, suggest a walk, make yourself something nice or create a nice moment for yourself with a cup of coffee and a good book. Do a nice thing for yourself 😌 It’s not always easy to find the happy things in the mundane every day. But practice makes perfect and the more you get used to doing it, the easier it becomes to find some sunshine every day - even if it’s pissing it down outside! ⛈ Tell me, how do you find your everyday sunshine? 🌤
If you know you know!!! 🥑😣 This page regula If you know you know!!! 🥑😣 This page regularly makes an appearance in my workshops - even though it’s July 2019... it still looks pretty much exactly the same. Empty!!! You see, last July was probably my busiest month of the year but for some reason I just didn’t think about it and I went ahead and designed the most time consuming elaborate theme I could come up with! I even cut an avocado Dutch door?!?! 🚪 This post is a reminder that the most perfect looking bullet journaling spreads might not be so practical and these days I’d much rather my Bullet journal look messy and basic but full of productive scribbly notes that help me get my sh** done! 🙌🏼🥑 New blog post up all about using productivity triggers to harness your productive energy PLUS there are less than 48 hours to grab your place for the CP club!!! 😱
⁣ Well what an exciting weekend it’s been eh?! ⁣ Well what an exciting weekend it’s been eh?! On Friday I finally put you out of your misery and announced the Creative Productive Club to an absolutely WONDERFUL reaction and a very awkward live launch including a squeaky balloon! And yesterday I opened sales for my VIPs - many of whom jumped at the chance to get involved! 🥳⁣ ⁣ The Creative Productive Club is an online subscription membership community thing that will bring together a close knit community of womxn who want to figure out how to be more productive and gain the confidence to get creative in their daily lives! ✨⁣ ⁣ I truly feel that creativity and productivity are two really important things that we need to pursue in order to live a fulfilled happy life, but this group means that you won’t have to go on that journey alone! You’ll have my energy and enthusiasm to keep you going and keep you trying new things and following through with them. As well as a wonderful support network of all other members. You’ll learn new things in the virtual masterclasses and connect with each other to experiment and chat about your journey in our twice monthly club sessions! ☺️⁣ ⁣ If this sounds like the perfect club for you make sure you’re on the waiting list as the rest of the places are being released TOMORROW at 9am! But you gotta get on that list to get the sign up link. The link is in my bio to sign up to the list ⬆️⁣ ⁣ Feel free to drop any questions down below or send me a DM to chat more!

⁣⁣It’s been like pure sunshine getting to kn ⁣⁣It’s been like pure sunshine getting to know the wonderful lovely creative people that have been following me recently ☀️ ⁣ ⁣ I feel like since I started doing the workshops I’ve been a lot more present on Instagram and on stories introducing myself and talking to you and it’s meant I’ve actually got to know a lot of you better as well either in the workshops, my DMs and the replies from my random stories or in Sunday BuJo club where we’ve had the chance to chat and get to know each other while we journal! ⁣ ⁣ So what better theme for July that some bright happy yellow sunshine - now can the weather so the same please ?!⁣ ⁣ I’m very excited about the next ‘phase’ of my business and the chance to get to know some of you even more!!! This new big thing is going to be a great way to do just that ☺️ I hope you’re as excited as me for Friday! ⁣ ⁣ Hope you’re having wonderful weeks sunshiney people, I’m off to eat curry and watch the Eurovision film 🌞🌞🌞⁣
Morning journaling is something I’m trying to ad Morning journaling is something I’m trying to add into my sustainable morning routine. As you can see it takes me a while, I get distracted by the split ends in my hair and by trying to twirl my pen round my fingers - but I still have a go and I usually manage at least a couple of pages 📃 ⁣ I’m the kind of person who has a lot of thoughts swimming around my brain a lot of the time - especially right now as I’m building and creating a business that’s going to have a positive impact on you... and be sustainable for me!⁣ it’s a lot of pressure 🤯 ⁣ So when I wake up in the morning and I’m lying in bed with all of these ideas and arguments running through my head (accidental rhyming - am I a rapper now?) it definitely helps to get it OUT and put it somewhere else - that notebook full of them! 📒 ⁣ This notebook is full of these weird rambling thoughts of mine that I want to evict from my brain and it clears space up for the rest of the day, so I can function a little better!⁣ ☺️ ⁣ This morning at 10 I’m doing a free live workshop for a local mental health support group @letstalkholyhead on their Facebook page- they do amazing work and have such a positive impact for people who need support in an area that doesn’t have a lot of that available! Talking is a great way to get things out of your head, journaling is like the one person version! 🖊 If you can’t watch the live head to my blog to read the post about morning journaling from @findthegoodeveryday - just search for ‘katie’
Approximately one year ago I posted this spread! I Approximately one year ago I posted this spread! I couldn’t have imagined what my life would be like in one year. This time last year I was still living in Mexico, teaching English to teens and adults, nurturing a huge brood of stray cats, slogging away with my blog (I only considered it to be a blog back then) and just loving life in the sun (and melting a bit!) 😰⁣ ⁣ I started life in Mexico with an idea of what I was going to do afterwards, but a week in it became apparent that my ‘plans’ were never going to happen (oh hey breakup!) Suddenly I was free. But too free. I felt like I was untethered and I didn’t know where the hell I was going to end up!!! At first it was terrifying. Then I somehow relaxed into it. I’ve always been a planner (still am) but where I usually had the next few years roughly planner out this time there was no plan. Not a shred of a plan 😱⁣ ⁣ I’m a big believer in things working out as they should if you’re open to new experiences but also that you still need to work the find the good in the situation you’re in. Right now I’m back living at home, not where I wanted to be at the start of the year. But the world seemed to have other plans for me (Thanks Corona). I’m not making any money and I haven’t really seen my friends properly in months. I haven’t been able to go to all those new clubs that I promised myself I’d try, and I’m severely deprived of my beloved cafe visits ☕️💔⁣ ⁣ Sometimes it’s hard to accept where we are, we almost end up wishing our lives away for when things are better or they’re how we want them to be. But all we really have is the now. Right now I have so much time to be working on my business (yes, business now, not just blog) I can spend time with my mum and trying new things, going on little adventures close to home and just being ✨⁣ ⁣ How are you trying to find the good things in life at the moment? 🧘🏼‍♀️
I’ve had the crappest weekend in a looong time. I’ve had the crappest weekend in a looong time. So what should I do? Mess around with my new pens and journal my feelings out is the answer. Anyone else do anything similar when they’re in a funk? Or how do you get things off your chest? 😔⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ I’m really hoping that next week things will start looking up. At the moment I feel like I’ve been experiencing these celestial highs that suck up all of my energy and then it’s like I crash back down to Earth and I feel worse than I did before! I know it’s part of the ebb and flow of life but recognising your feelings is so essential to learning to cope with them 🌧⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ Not gonna lie my journal plays a big part in me sorting my head out, and finding calligraphy (thanks @blinklettering) has also been a bit of a game changer in terms of having to focus on something so much all other thoughts seemingly float away like clouds ☁️⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ So let’s look forward instead of backwards now, how has your weekend been? And what are you focussing on next week? 🤔⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ I have another Get Started with Bullet Journaling workshop on Thursday at 10am (Wednesday I cancelled nobody was booked on and I need to take it easy for my mental health) and on Sunday I cannot wait to see all the lovely ladies in BuJo Club (1 space still left, dm me for more info!) 📩
⁣ It’s not September yet guys don’t panic! B ⁣ It’s not September yet guys don’t panic! But I wanted to show you this spread and the theme I used as I’m going to be talking about it tonight in my Building Creative Confidence workshop. There are only 2 places left! (and I believe one is about to be snapped up!) 😱⁣ ⁣ In the workshop tonight at 6:30pm I’ll teach you easy techniques you can use to build up your creative confidence and to help you start injecting some fun into your Bullet Journaling. I strongly believe that adding a bit of creativity into our journals can actually boost our productivity when done right 🙌🏼⁣ ⁣ Being creative can be relaxing, it allows us to explore who we are and when we look back on a creation we’re happy with that feeling of pride in your work is almost euphoric. So let’s enjoy our creativity. Whether you believe yourself to be creative or not I still argue a lot of it is confidence in your creative ability 🌈⁣ ⁣ DM me for more info or go to bookwhen.com/stationerymagpie to snap up those last few places! 😨
