Hello there! Thank you for visiting Imperfectly Planned, my little corner of the internet. As I thought about countless ideas for my first blog post, I realized the importance of delving into the "why" behind starting this blog. Why did I start this journey in the first place? To answer that, I need to share how I arrived here. By day, I'm a lawyer, but by night, I transform into a passionate lifestyle planner. A little cringe I know, but it’s true!
While the term "lifestyle planner" may not be entirely new to some, it's a concept I hadn't seen before. Honestly, I hadn't even realized that I was “lifestyle planning” until recently. After spending long hours at my legal job, I would spend countless hours meticulously dreaming up my ideal life. I would imagine where I wanted to live and vacation, how I wanted to decorate my home, my dream exercise and skincare routines, the perfect date night plans, the bags and clothes I wanted to include in my capsule wardrobe, and all the fun experiences I wanted to fill my time. I would create elaborate PowerPoint slides, essentially crafting a vision board on steroids. It was a dream come true for my Type-A personality. However, I constantly came across the same hurdle when it came to making this dream life a reality: execution.
After several failed attempts at achieving this "perfect life," I decided to make a change. I started reverse engineering my concept of perfection. I focused on what my daily routines should be and what my finances need to look like for me to have the time, energy, and resources needed to genuinely live my version of a "perfect life." It took time and a lot of frustrating tries, but I'm finally seeing some progress! Although my life is far from perfect, it’s slowly starting to look like those PowerPoint vision boards I obsessed over for years.
My motivation behind starting this blog extends beyond my obsession with all things home decor, travel, fashion, and beauty. I also hope to help others in discovering their own version of a "perfect life" and helping them transform their current life to match their vision.
If you've managed to read this far, thank you so much for joining me on this fun, new adventure and extend a warm welcome to Imperfectly Planned!
Xoxo,
