Woohoo! Super excited to bring you this episode because we have our very first guest in the house 🙌

Cathryn Lavery is the CEO and co-founder of BestSelf Co. As a creative and award-winning entrepreneur, Cathryn is known for creating top-rated planning and productivity tools including the Self Journal, the Weekly Action Pad and a range of Discovery Decks.

Cathryn is also an avid journaler and I was super excited to get inside her head and figure out how this high-performer uses journaling for more productivity, clarity and ideas.

  • Journaling revelations and unlocking life-changing events that weren't on the radar previously. 
  • Being the devil's advocate for yourself to make confident, all-in decisions. 
  • Cathryn's journaling routine.
