The Journey of Personal Development

Compass Journals was born from a deep personal transformation. For over ten years, I was caught on auto-pilot in my comfort zone as an educator. Eventually, I found the courage to start growing. Each challenge I faced unlocked new capabilities, just like advancing in a video game. I believe consistent, small steps add up to significant change over time. Throughout my journey, I explored many methods, tools, and hacks, and learned what truly worked for me. I needed something more structured and sustainable to fit my life. So, I created it.

Looking at the lined paper facing my weekly schedule, I got the idea to combine the weekly planner with a guided journal to lower the friction on self-development. Compass Journals was created to help busy people build momentum in their personal growth. The goal is to nurture confidence without causing burnout. Whether you are just starting out on your own journey or reconnecting with it after a hiatus, this system supports your growth as you gain clarity.

To help more people benefit from the 53-week journaling framework, I will be sharing videos on my Compass Journals YouTube channel throughout 2026. Showing the 2026 Weekly Planner and Guided Journal in action and also sharing the next stage of my personal growth journey. Follow my story on social media and let's grow together!
