Hey, I’m Polina

…or, as you can guess, I also go by the name Poli. I am a full-time recruitment marketing strategist, but also I am digital creator, and music/dance-loving human, continuously searching for balance amidst chaos of our everyday life.

I have too many passions. Here are just a few of them:

Music production

I love dabbling in Ableton and making music. I am far from a pro, but it makes my heart sing.

Check out my music here.

Dancing

Vogue and Waacking baby! I love these dancing styles, their history, their community. Dancing and connecting with the others makes me feel free, express myself and sparks my creativity.

Planning

Believe it or not, I like things to be organised. Because I like so many different things, and there is not an ounce of a minimalist in my being, I need to at least keep all my passions and interests organised.

Creating Aligned

When I was a kid, stationery was my favourite shop. I would stare at all different kinds of notebooks, pens and writing tools. I’ve always loved planners, journals (bullet journals were my legit obsession), and this interest took a new turn when I discovered productivity tools.

But I kept bumping into the same problem: after the initial obsession and a wave of motivation, productivity systems would end up making me feel worse: I would either not know where to start, drop the system and in general get intimidated, overwhelmed and discouraged.

So I decided take another look at the problem and come up something different. So I created a system that starts with your values, which are uniquely and genuinely yours, before jumping straight into your tasks. Plus, I didn’t want to obsess over the perfectionism, as it would notoriously not stick.

If you are curious how I got here, read about my creation journey in my blog, and discover my end result in the section Aligned.

If the topic of value-based planning triggered your curiosity, but you don’t know where to start, try a short exercise on your core value discovery. For that I have created a free tool. It’s an actual module from my planner, which you can test out for free. It will introduce you to the concept of core values, give you an extensive list as examples, and help you define your top 5 core values, which guide your choices and make you feel like yourself.

I’m so happy to see you here. If you have any questions and would like to connect, drop me a message here.
