I am so excited to begin a new year full of possibilities to create, motivate and inspire. Part of my journey to do my best is to keep a planner. Do you keep a planner? My usual go to planner was a cheap black planner with the year on the cover and each month in daily squares. Efficient yes, inspiring and motivating, not at all. However, I always love to go back and look at my day to day life over the years. It is almost like a diary, reminding me of many forgotten memories. But this year I am getting the ultimate upgrade in planners. My new Erin Condren planner is so much better and inspires me to create in color and is motivating me to live boldly and to dream of all that can be. In other words, to get out of my own darn way!

I hope by now you have heard of and are familiar with Erin Condren and her amazing journey that is making all of her dreams come true! That was motivation enough for me to check her out and oh my friends what a story she has to tell. From starting in her garage in California to opening her amazing store in Austin what a true pioneer in the world of planning she is. Helping and inspiring people to dream BIG and make those dreams reality is what made her dreams come true and she is helping all of us to do the same. What a remarkable person.

This year I am thrilled to be part of the EC squad for Erin Condren. I will be showing y’all how I dream, plan and use my custom planner to make my aspirations come true! If you have a chance to visit Austin, don’t miss Erin’s beautiful store in the Domain shopping center. It is “like build a bear” for planners. Pick any cover, customize it and have FUN with all the colors of the rainbow. I personally was beyond wowed by my experience there! My cover is a favorite photo with the tag line “More Love”.

Recently, I was invited to Erin’s flagship store in Austin for a celebration of bloggers from across Texas. We all love planning and need it to do our jobs. What a fun day! The best was meeting Erin! What a spirit, she was leaving in an hour to catch a plane to India for meetings and then off to China. I did tell you what a go getter she is! But before she left, she spoke to us all and spoiled us rotten. It was so special and so sweet! Cotton candy, candy from Maggie Louise, drinks, cupcakes from Sprinkles and all the planning tools a girl could dream of! To meet other bloggers I have followed and admired was the icing on the cake!

I wish every one of you the happiest start to the new year. Cheers to making dreams come true!

And, as always, thank you for following along.

XOXO,

Kim
