Who am I & why did I create this?
I'm Destiny Olivia--I’m a hugger 🤗! And also day dreamer, dancer, diver, digital nomad, and (painfully slowly) recovering perfectionist.
More relevant to you, I’m also a writer, and have a blog at adestinybydesign.com, where I share articles I’ve written on mindset, intentional living, and life lessons learned through personal experiences, with a little humor and a little tough love.
I also create resources around personal development to help you reinvent yourself, design your fate, and maximize your potential. This planner is one of those resources.
I like to say “You only get one life, might as well make it fabulous!”
How did this planner come about?
At a time where I was in a much longer than comfortable season of feeling stuck, uninspired, and in an overall slump from…life…in an attempt to get my life back on track and come back to my normal self, I printed out my very own habit tracker that I made years ago, and give away to my newsletter subscribers.
I normally only use it sporadically in more demanding seasons of my life, and this slump was anything but demanding (except emotionally and mentally), but hey, desperate times…
Using that habit tracker made me want to expand upon it, and using it in combination with another pre-made planner drew attention to features I wished that planner had, that I started drawing out in dot grid notebooks.
I also went through a very intense period of work burnout (from self-induced pressure) where I forgot to focus on my mental, emotional, spiritual, and social wellbeing, in the name of "hustling" and getting ahead.
My happiness suffered greatly as a result, and after the very long process of trying to recover from that season, the pendulum swung in the opposite direction, and I abandoned all my ambitions, lost all my discipline, and opted to do nothing in the name of "self care" and "self love."
So, considering all of that, I wanted to make a tool to help keep me balanced and on track in all areas of my life. I wanted gentle accountability without pressure. I wanted guidance without restriction. I wanted something that was going to help me be happy, healthy, and successful holistically.
And that’s how this little (very big) project came to be.
Despite all of the hours that added up to long days, late nights, weeks, and months, filling notebooks with sketches, writing and rewriting content, eyes glued to a computer screen, picking what to include and where to place what, meticulously deciding font sizes, choosing line spacing literally down to the millimeter…I’m not only super proud of what I ended up with, but very grateful for the process…as all of life should be.
I put my blood, sweat, tears, and OCD into this planner!!
And the making of it gave me such tremendous joy, reignited a creative fire in me, and restored excitement and motivation in my life. And I'm not only hopeful, but confident, that using it will gift you the same things it gifted me while making it. I can’t wait to see the transformation and joy it produces for others…like you!
Who this goal planner is for:
People who…
Need structure but want freedom
Are easily overwhelmed without a sense of direction
Have trouble staying on task or knowing what to focus on
Thrive with (gentle) accountability, but not pressure
Can't get motivated to work without seeing meaning behind it
Don't take pride in being busy for the sake of being busy
(Unapologetically) won't use a planner if it isn't pretty 😌😏
(Pictured: Destiny By Design Dated Daily Planner)
It’s not that you failed–it’s that your planner failed you.
So many of us start planners with lofty goals, just to get bored, overwhelmed, and even confused...
Am I planning right? Should it look prettier than this? Is what I’m doing important? Do these tasks actually matter? Am I actually getting anywhere?
We fall off the wagon, we quit, then feel guilty, then coast until the next big societal push comes along (usually new year), just to start the cycle again.
The problem with most planners is they…
Try to fit too much into too small of a space
Are too rigid
Are too open, with blank pages where you have to recreate your own layouts every week and day
Are glorified lists of arbitrary tasks that don't lead to achieving anything substantial
Overemphasize productivity over happiness and mental wellbeing
Are not aesthetic
And as a result, you…
Keep planner hopping
Never find planner peace
Get frustrated with yourself
Keep spinning your wheels and getting nowhere on your goals
Grow resentment towards your work and your life
Burn. Out.
I don’t believe in busy work.
Quite frankly, despite being ambitious, I’m too lazy for that. I like everything I do to count, to matter, and to move me forward towards a better, more effective, happier version of me, and a better, more effective, happier version of my life.
Therefore, every single layout, prompt, and thing in this goal planner is designed with that objective in mind—to move forward and make progress on the things that matter most to you, and make the biggest positive impact on your life.
This goal planner is designed to ensure that every time you make a move, it’s a step forward, not marching in place.
Nothing is more important than charting your course.
Completing daily and weekly tasks that move towards a life you don't ultimately want, goals you don't want to achieve, or just serve as busy work that leads to nothing and keeps you spinning your wheels…is a waste of time and energy.
It’s time to plan consciously, with intention.
This system will hold your hand through the process of creating a new standard in your life.
It will help you turn your dreams into action, and your action into results.
Hello balance, goodbye hustle.
Yes, it is possible to be productive without burning out.
But we can’t execute the plans we don’t make, and we can’t grow from action we don’t take.
If you're ready to reinvent yourself and design your fate, then you're in the right place.
What’s the difference between the Destiny by Design Planner and the Progress Playbook?
The Destiny By Design Planner is one tool that includes a year's worth of goal setting pages, personal growth content, worksheets, trackers, monthly and weekly pre-planning and reflections, plus calendar spreads. It's everything you need to identify, break down, and achieve your goals...and also schedule tasks and appointments day to day.
The Progress Playbook also covers a full year, and features all the same things as the Destiny by Design Planner...minus the monthly, weekly, and daily calendar spreads for tasks and appointments. It's perfect for people who already have a planner with calendar layouts they like, but maybe that planner lacks detailed structure and guidance to help you create, track, reach, and reflect on your goals.
So if you want to add purpose to your plans and supplement a more minimal planner you already have, the Progress Playbook is perfect for you.
This looks awesome, but I need a complete planner with calendar spreads to schedule weekly and daily appointments and tasks. What do I do?

Challenge Accepted is a must-read. It's a book that stays with you, prompting self-reflection and encouraging positive change. Each chapter resonates with a truth that makes you nod your head.
The author doesn't sugarcoat the struggles, the setbacks, and the moments of doubt and despair.
And let me just say, I totally admire the author's skill. Her writing is like a shot of adrenaline straight to the soul, raw, real, and absolutely inspiring. Highly recommend!
P.S. If you're looking for even more inspiration from Destiny, be sure to check out her website and social media channels. She's a true champion of self-empowerment, and her infectious enthusiasm is sure to leave you feeling motivated and ready to take on the world!
I love this planner so much and the design is super cute! It’s so much more than just a place to write down my to-do list. I love how it helps me actually think about my bigger goals and then break them down into smaller, actionable steps.
As someone with ADHD and often feel overwhelmed this would help me out of my constant executive dysfunction.
I love that there’s space for planning, reflection, habits, personal goals, and even reminder to make time for intentional joy which is something that I often forget about.
You can really tell how much thought and love went into creating this. If you’re someone who wants to feel more organized while also being intentional about the life you’re building, I highly recommend it!
LOVED this planner! It’s so well-thought out and helps me really focus on specific goals. Not only is it helpful, but it’s fun! Everyday I just can’t wait til I can fill the pages with more goals and dreams. I really believe in the laws of attraction and not only do I think I was meant to find this planner, but I truly think it will manifest all the goals I’ve been dreaming about. Thank you for this lovely piece of work!
I think this is the best planner I’ve ever had! And I’ve had plenty of planners. Not only is it super organized and detailed, but I love that it gives you room to think about your “ why” When it comes to your goals and the emotions behind your planning.
I’ve never really been much of a journaling or planner person, so I wasn’t sure what to expect. This planner made it surprisingly easy to get started. The prompts give me enough structure to know what to write about without making it feel overwhelming, and I like that it helps me turn larger goals into practical, manageable steps. It’s useful for organizing both my personal life and work, while also giving me space to reflect and track my progress. As someone new to journaling, I appreciate how thoughtful, clear, and easy to use it is. It’s a great tool for becoming more intentional and staying accountable.
I absolutely love this planner! Planners are usually practical and helpful, but not necessarily beautiful. This one is truly everything - it’s feminine, thoughtfully designed, and genuinely inspiring. It gives me the structure I need to stay organized and make progress, while still feeling beautiful and enjoyable to use. I love that it goes beyond scheduling and to-do lists by helping me connect my everyday tasks to my bigger goals and the life I want to create. This planner is both practical and pretty..I love it so much!
I'm excited to start using this planner because I believe it will be a valuable tool for both my business and personal growth.
I'm looking for something that will help me stay organized, set meaningful goals, track my progress, and remain intentional about where I'm investing my time and energy.
What I like most is the idea of having one place to turn my goals into actionable steps while keeping myself accountable.
JH Burton
Exceeded my expectations. Very detailed and packed with useful applicable action items to help me structure and plan a sustainable and obtainable life growth journey. I love it for business and personal growth. Awesome! Levada S.
I absolutely love this planner! It feels like so much more than a "planner". A life coach, career coach, journal, etc. It's helped me to take tangible steps towards my desired life/lifestyle and to show up for my future self. I would highly recommend this for anyone that is trying to get their "spark" back or just be more organized and inspired on a daily basis!

Thank you for sharing your thoughts, Gloria 🤗 This makes me so happy to hear that you're getting value from the Dream Life Blueprint and enjoying using it!
I retired over a year ago from teaching to care for my father who was passing. Once he did, I was faced with a vacuum to fill. Lots of time, but no focus amongst the grief.
Your information and workshops have enabled me to make plans and take the needed action. Thank you!

Eva! 🫶🏽 That makes me so happy to hear that I have somehow been able to help you through a difficult time in your journey. Thank you for sharing your feedback 💛
This book is an excellent reminder of how easily we can let limiting beliefs sneak in and chip away at our potential of living our best life. A must read for those wanting to level up, or simply overcome fear and self doubt!! Dream Big....
This is one of the most authentic and practical self-help books that I've read. Reading this book was a great start to the new year as I've been working on my resolutions! It's given me a sense of fearlessness and courage not only as I approach life, but even the swimming lessons I'm taking as an adult right now as well lol! The best part is, the principles are succinct and easily "approachable". There's not a lot of wordiness or drawn out anecdotes or redundant points. If you ever want to refer back to the book to remind yourself of something or re-read to really make the principles stick, you can easily do so without feeling too intimidated or overwhelmed. Definitely a must-read!
(It matches my nail polish!)
It unmasks the hidden treasures within us, debunks the fears hibanating within that obstructs our next avenue to life.
The simplicity of this book is the exact sophistication of it..it's so practicle.Brief and readable beginning anywhere! I recommend it to anyone anytime ,all the time. Thank you
Successfully well written! Loved this book. It's interesting, provides real life tools to jumpstart your life and has just the right touch of humor to get you through some of the realities we all face when struggling with our "what now?" moments.
I couldn't stop reading! Stirring and motivating. Really great nudges! Just what I needed to help me look and move forward. Challenge Accepted!
A must-read for those who are ready to take control of their lives. This book is a fun, light and easy read for those who want to break free from their limiting beliefs.
Challenge Accepted is an easy narrative that explores the metaphor of learning to swim as an adult as a transformative life challenge. Author Destiny Olivia intertwines her personal story with universal truths of resilience, growth, and self-discovery. As she navigates accepting her challenge to learn to swim, readers are encouraged to embrace personal challenges to lead to personal growth. Olivia draws parallels between the swimming journey and life's trials, emphasizing the importance of courage, adaptability, and the willingness to embrace the challenge. The ripple effect of her experiences extends beyond the pool, offering readers an understanding of facing adversity head-on. Challenge Accepted is a testament to the transformative power of confronting challenges—a reminder that life lessons can be overcome with determination.
