ABOUT ME ‘KIM’

Personal History
I grew up in a small town in Ireland and it was great. I got my love for time management from my Dad, he was usually early for everything – and so am I. I guess in my DNA is a slightly time-obsessed person.
A bit about me as a person – I am a very fun-loving person. I love travel, new experiences and being social.
A few extra hobbies are – knitting, crochet, reading and lots of walking. I’m 100% a walker!
ABOUT ME NOW! – I am 41, now live in a Dublin apartment with my incredible husband Matt and my dear kitty Lughan.
Working Life
My background is teaching, but I completed an organising course and a certificate in professional life coaching and Voila!!….planning and coaching became my new future. I love bullet journals and use them to help people develop their own personal planning style. This journey led to the birth of ‘Bujoplanner.Kim’.
That business kept me going for about 1 year but now I have become more focus on getting a clear path in my work and business life, so that has led to the birth of ‘buildyourplanner.com’.

ABOUT ME -The Qualities that Drive me!
Super committed
I constantly learn and improve and find new ways – but I don’t give up. If I commit – I commit. I am usually in something for the long haul.
Deeply focused
I seem to have the ability to stay focused for long periods of time when it comes to mental work. I can sit down and work and work and work – but I don’t because I also try to be balanced.
Balanced
I am constantly monitoring myself – should I stop now. I always want to make sure that I have a good work/life balance and I strive to learn about this always.
