WELCOME

This blog has been around in one form or another since 2010. It’s an amalgamation of who I was, who I am, and who I’m hoping to be. Sometimes it’s about beauty products. Other times (most of the time) it’s about planning. Occasionally there’s business stuff and even rarer board game content.

So thanks for stopping by, reading somthing long-form in a world of fast information, and hanging out with me on my slice of the internet.

Sincerely,

Kayla

 

it's me

My Quest to Set Better Goals

Everyone always talks about the importance of setting goals, but I'm basically rubbish at it. I've never been good at writing goals down and I'm even worse at checking back in to see progress. That's no excuse to not set goals though. So I'm working my butt off to be...
