Intentional Productivity Essentials
I have a hybrid-style in managing life and business (analog+digital) and here are the tools I recommend.
1. NOTION
I manage my business and side gig using Notion. I’ve been using Notion since 2019 and still love it.
2. SUNSAMA
I used this for a while and still recommend it. If I wasn’t using Bullet Journal, I’d still be using Sunsama.
3. Bullet Journal / Notebook
I’ve been using the Leuchtturm1917 for my Bullet Journal since 2016. I also used Moleskine but I keep coming back to Leuchtturm1917.
Personal Growth Essentials
When I was younger, I couldn’t afford books, so I borrowed them from the library. As soon as I could, I started building my own collection and lived what I learned.
The ideas I share here come from real experience, I tested, personalised, and lived them.
And in 2022, the Universe gifted me the best life coach and mentor/friend. One of the best gifts I’ve ever received that year.
1. Dr Fran Whitaker / She Creates Colour
When I grow up, I want to be as kind, generous, fun, and smart as this amazing woman.
She won six Paralympic medals and five World Championship golds for Great Britain, yet she stays humble.
Her achievements shine, but her kindness and humility inspire me even more.
2. Bullet Journal Method
The core of my productivity system is a combination of Bujo (bullet journal method) and GTD (getting things done).
3. Effortless
This book taught me the value of finding simpler, more sustainable and easier ways of doing things.
4. The One Thing
This book helped me stop trying to do it all and start focusing on just one thing. When I give my best to just one thing, everything else starts to feel simpler.
5. Atomic Habits
This book taught me that small habits can make a big difference. Just doing little things each day really adds up over time.
6. Getting things Done Method
This book taught me how to clear my mind which makes it easier to stay focused and get things done.
7. Building a Second Brain
I learned how to save my ideas, notes, and tasks in one place so I don’t have to remember everything. It helps me think more clearly and find what I need when I need it.
8. L’art de la Liste
Now, I see lists not just as to-dos, but as a way to slow down and live more mindfully. It made me enjoy planning and brought more calm and clarity to my days.
9. The Barefoot Investor
My family are now even more intentional with money, including our children 9 and 15 y.o. This book helped us take control of our money in a simple, no-fuss way.
Blogging Essentials
If you’re a blogger or thinking about starting, here are the top 9 essentials. Of course, you don’t have to use them all, but I believe the top 3 are absolute must-haves.
1. Lyrical Host
I like them because the company is heart-centred and it’s owned by beautiful people.
Use GRATEFULHEART code to get 10% off your first hosting plan payment
2. Contract Club
From day one I made sure to invest on Legal Templates. Worth every cent.
Have a peace of mind for you and for your business.
3. Keysearch
Affordable SEO tool which has what you need to grow your traffic.
4. Heartbeat
A fun and less noisy platform to connect with your community.
5. RightBlogger
I use day every day for brainstorming sessions. It’s like having a bestie to bounce ideas off.
6. Rank IQ
This helped me get enough traffic to qualify having ads on my website. No social media just by SEO. [Note: In June 2025 I removed the ads for better experience for you.
7. Six Figure System
One of a few memberships that I love and I use all the time.
8. Essential Business Builder
My favourite membership for everything Google Sheets.
9. Passive Income Journeys
Not a membership but a collection of courses that helped my side-gig grow.
