Happy Monday!
It’s a damp and dreary looking day here in Central Ontario this morning, on what was supposed to be the first day back to work after the holidays for me. Only Shaun announced last night that he and the GF would be here sometime this morning to spend the day with me.
That’s intentional magic at work #1 – I had asked him a few times to please spend at least one day of the holiday with me, and so today is the day since he goes back to work tomorrow! Of course, I was hoping for just some mother & son time, but I didn’t specify that, so I can’t be too surprised that he’s bringing her along with him.
Learned Lesson #1 – Be very specific in what I’m asking for!
My second example is one of those “blow your mind” moments when it hits. As I was writing my goals and intentions yesterday, I had a thought that for one of the things on my list I’d really love to find someone to work with who already had experience doing it.
And when I logged into Facebook last night for the first time in about a week, there was an invitation to be a part of a group doing the very thing I said I want to do!
I think I was tired when I read that message because it didn’t sink in until I was replying to my friend this morning to say yes, I’d love to be a part of it, that I was like “holy s***… that’s the magic!” and I’m still sitting here thinking about how fast this stuff works if you just get out of the way and let it!
One of my intentions for this year is to read more non-fiction. I have a whole shelf of “to be read” books I’ve bought over the past couple of years just waiting to be dug into. But I’m feeling like the first books on my list this year are going to be a re-read of Big Magic by Elizabeth Gilbert and another round of Julia Cameron’s “The Artist’s Way.”
So, that’s my news for this morning. Here’s what I have for you in the way of deals…

Positivity Printables on Sale with My Bonus Workshop
One of my favourite products of 2022 was Amy Harrop’s Positivity Printables training. If you’re not sure what these are they are products like gratitude journals, affirmations coloring pages, habit trackers, vision boards, etc. Anything really that helps people be more positive and improve their lives. This is my all-time favourite content to create and I’ve spent years making planners and journals to serve the personal development niche.
Amy has updated this training to include a 30 Steps to Printable Success guide, and a set of Affirmation Card templates in both Canva and PPT formats.
Here’s what the main guide covers:
- What positivity printables are and why there is such a big market for them.
- The benefits of positivity products according to science.
- How to identify niches with high popularity and low competition.
- How to evaluate your competitors, including tips on evaluating prices, products, and more.
- Step-by-step instructions to create habit trackers, gratitude journals, positivity and affirmation wall art, and vision board printables.
- Advertising best practices and principles for positivity printables.

And now for my bonus – When this was first launched last year, I did a live workshop on how to create products for the positivity printables market.
