I honestly can't believe I'm writing these words...
We're officially live.
There have been so many moments over the last year where I thought, this is just too hard.
Too much to do.
Too many decisions.
Too many moments of wondering whether I was capable of building what I could see so clearly in my mind.
But somehow...
We're here.
It's been a rollercoaster in every sense of the word, and looking back, I think the biggest lesson I've learnt has been this:
You have to believe in yourself before the world can.
Thankfully, Jake has believed in me and this enough for the both of us at times, because if it were only up to me, I probably would have thrown in the towel a few more times than I'd like to admit.
He's been my biggest supporter, reminding me why I started whenever I forgot.
But something else happened along the way.
I realised I had become so focused on creating tools to help everyone else become the best version of themselves... that I'd forgotten to use those same tools myself.
Funny how that happens, isn't it?
You believe in something so deeply because you know how much it can change someone's life.
You tell everyone else to slow down.
To take care of themselves.
To dream bigger.
To believe in themselves.
And then one day you realise...
You've stopped doing those things too.
So over the last few weeks, I've been taking my own advice.
I've slowed down.
I've started prioritising sleep.
Looking after my body.
Making wellness a non-negotiable.
I've even started meditating... something I never thought I'd actually stick with!
And honestly?
It's working.
I feel calmer.
More present.
More creative.
More like me.
One of the best parts?
I was lucky enough to receive an early sample of our planner... so naturally I started using it straight away.
And... not to toot my own horn...
...but wow.
I genuinely created this planner because it was everything I wished I'd had years ago.
Somewhere to organise my week, but also organise my mind.
A place to set goals that actually matter.
To reflect.
To practise gratitude.
To check in with myself instead of constantly rushing to the next thing.
It has become part of my sunday reset already, and I honestly can't wait for you to experience it too.
If there's one thing I hope Kindly & Co becomes, it's a reminder that becoming your best self doesn't happen overnight.
It happens in the small choices.
The five minutes you spend journalling.
The goals you write down.
The boundaries you keep.
The way you speak to yourself.
The moments you choose to believe that maybe... just maybe... you're capable of creating the life you've been dreaming about.
So...
We're officially live.
And while it feels surreal, I know this is only the beginning.
Thank you for being here.
Thank you for believing in this little dream.
And if you've been waiting for a sign to start choosing yourself...
Maybe this is it.
With love,
Lacey 💛
P.S. I know I might be biased... but I genuinely believe everyone needs one of these planners. I poured my heart into every page, and I can't wait for you to start creating your own future with it.
