Hi, I’m Chelsea — professional dot-connector, part-time dream chaser and supporter, full-time snack enthusiast, and occasional chaos coordinator.
By day, I wrangle timelines and to-do lists like a pro. By night (and honestly, most weekends), I’m designing, writing, building our next home, supporting professional speakers, or trying to tire out our cattle dog like it’s my side hustle.
This website is my digital living room — comfy pants encouraged, perfection absolutely not required. It’s where I share the behind-the-scenes of building a life that’s equal parts organized and “what in the world am I doing?”
Come for the creativity, stay for the slightly unhinged honesty.

But, recently I stumbled across a video on my hard drives as I was perusing it, and it brought back some emotions to me. So I decided to record a reaction video to it…
My Take On and Interpretation of My Own Personality Profiles
I’ve heard it said that people feel like personality profiles are just a way of sticking people in boxes. While I definitely can see how some would appear that way, I personally think that personality profiles are a way to get a deeper understanding of yourself and your traits – and often your strengths and weaknesses. For me, personality profiles are a way to build greater awareness of how you interact with the world around you.

This was one of those “I’m going to just do this right now without too much of a plan” DIY projects, and I’m still obsessed with it and love that it’s what I get to look at every day while I work.
