Free Period Press exists to help you slow (way, way) down, take care of yourself, and focus on what’s most important to you. We believe that our best days are not the ones where we cross everything off our to-do list. They’re also not the ones where we spend a ton of time staring at screens. We believe our best days are the ones where we feel connected to our body, our mind, and our community. We try to help you do more of that.

Writing a novel? Running a marathon? Learning a new language? These big goals can be overwhelming, but they are all accomplished the same way - by making progress one day at a time. The Progress Tracker will help you visibly track your progress on your big goals and projects.

Poster measures 11 x 17 inches
Clip it to your wall, bulletin board, fridge, wherever!

By breaking down your projects into small wins and tracking the one metric that matters most, you make your daily progress visible. And studies show that making progress on meaningful work is the single most important way to boost motivation during a workday. 

The Progress Tracker works with pretty much anything you want to track. The first step is to identify the metric that matters most.

Words written // Hours spent drawing // Sales prospects emailed // Logo concepts designed // Minutes outside // Push-ups completed // Lines of code written // Number of people pitched // Number of people helped // Pages read

Here’s how it works:

1. Break down your goal into a daily habit that you can track
2. Do the thing
   
3. Track your progress with a checkmark or number
4. Keep going-- we’re rooting for you!

Daily ADHD Notepad Planner

Neurodivergent Planners? Here for it. Snarky stationary? Without question. Witty stickers? YOU BET. Clever gifts for humans who are prone to impulse shopping? We're your brand! I started Imperfect Inspiration in February of 2021 after being diagnosed with ADHD as a 34 year old woman during a mid-pandemic breakdown. So many things about my life, my habits, my struggles, and my overall function finally had answers and the more I dug, the more I realized most neurodivergent adults had very few supports, tools, and resources designed specifically for them. I took my design degree and dove into researching what could be better and designed my first planner. Since I have designed hundreds of planners, products, tools, resources, and strategies for thousands of humans who have helped me grow as a small business but also as a mom of five, an employer of ten employees, a partner to my spouse, a community asset by opening a storefront, and most importantly in my own mental health journey. It's messy af, but it's happening. And I'm here for it. At the end of the day, I'm here to make good design, productivity, functionality, and awareness accessible to as many humans as I can. But hell if I'm not going to throw some sparkle on it before I ship it out. Follow the dopamine, party people. And let's get busy. :)
