An informal chat where I focus on understanding your business needs and goals, making sure Notion is the right fit for you. If I can help, you’ll receive a project proposal outlining the scope of the project and a quote.

2. Onboarding (TBC)

We’ll move forward to onboarding if you accept the project proposal. I’ll send you an invoice for a 50% deposit and an invoice for the remaining 50% will be sent prior to the handover of the Notion workspace.If you have any spreadsheets, screenshots or other useful information to share, this is the perfect point to share them with me, so that we can have a great Project Briefing call.

3. Project briefing (1 to 3 hours)

This is where we will dive deep into your operations, workflows and processes.I’ll be asking you key questions to get an in-depth understanding of your goals, needs and wants, so you get the Notion workspace that actually solves your problems and that you enjoy using for the long term.

4. Design and build (TBC)

A typical custom build takes ~4 weeks to complete. However, we’ll be working within our agreed-upon timeframe and project scope, to design and build your workspace.

5. Workspace handover and follow-up, (1.5 to 3 hours)

Once the custom workspace is ready to be handed over to you, you’ll receive a detailed run-through to make sure you have a thorough understanding of the new workspace.After 1-2 weeks, we’ll do a follow up office hour session so you can ask any questions and we can make sure you’ve fully adopted the workspace into your business.

6. Feedback and iterations (TBC)

Minor adjustments can be discussed and made during the workspace handover and follow up sessions. Major adjustments or additions outside the original project scope can be discussed further.

What People Have Said...

Janice changed my life. Before my Notion consulting call with her, I struggled with converting my ideas into articles.The problem was my an idea capturing system spanned three tools. When I had time to write, it took me a while to identify which article ideas to work on, what phase the article was in, and where the most recent information was. This is because I used Trello to manage my pipeline, Notion to record my ideas, and Microsoft Word to write my article drafts.Janice has excellent coaching skills. She identified my pain points and offered specific suggestions to create a streamline content creation system. Before my call with Janice, I had not published my newsletter for nine months. But after the call, I published weekly for eighteen weeks until I decided to focus on writing my book. I highly recommend working with Janice!

JENNY M.


So incredibly helpful, 10/10! I think the capture system alone will completely transform the way I use Notion, and really make it work for me! My main goal was to figure out why I found my existing system so clunky, and you solved it super quickly! With the capture/data base system you’ve reduced most of my clicking from like 10+ clicks to less than 3 clicks for any given action.Notion is like that spiderman quote: “With great power comes great responsibility”! It’s such a customizable system that it’s actually quite easy to shoot yourself in the foot and make something that’s difficult to use and maintain…. That’s why it was so valuable to get to learn from your experience and get direct troubleshooting.

KELLY C.

When I started using Notion, my goal was to set up a system with a set of rules so I could do what I needed to do with some intentionality. However, the system quickly became exhausting and unmanageable, and by the end of 12 months, I was frustrated with Notion. I didn’t know how to get back to the basics.Having a 90minute session with Janice brought back clarity and showed me how to simplify my Notion setup. I’m not a big fan of templates, and following another Notion designer's template made things way more complicated for me. Janice helped me identify the core problem and provided a straightforward solution: "eliminate that database from your dashboard." You see how simple that is?Now, I’m back to using Notion effectively for project management. She helped me remove unnecessary complexities, and my workflow is now much more efficient.

DAYO S.


I loved the specificity of the advice I got on the call. I finally felt that I have a chance at making a Notion system that works for me rather than the other way around. Janice addressed all my challenges and the next time I have a particular project to manage in Notion I know I now have the ability to do it a lot better.A personalised call like this is so much more valuable than consuming static content and trying to make it all work for yourself. The expertise with productivity tools/ software is a real thing. And consulting with an expert like Janice is worth the time and money. I did not even know such help was possible to access before our call. Thank you for that session.

About Me

My Story

Before I found Notion 5+ years ago, my digital tool stack for managing my life, day job and business was complicated. I used a mix of physical notebooks, to-do apps, Excel spreadsheets, OneNote, Trello etc.Even writing that list makes me feel overwhelmed!When I found Notion, it blew my mind and it totally changed how I managed everything that is important to me.I shifted from the overwhelm of using multiple tools that did not talk to each other. To an all-in-one digital tool where I manage all my tasks, projects, goals, notes, writing, content creation, travel plans, clients etc. in the one digital workspace that I can access anywhere I have an internet connection.Notion completely simplified and decluttered my digital life.It’s freed up more time, energy and focus.


Why Embrace Slow Productivity Systems in Notion?

I had an unhealthy relationship with productivity.Before I found Cal Newport’s Slow Productivity philosophy in 2020, I drank the productivity culture kool-aid. I bought into the idea that a productive and accomplished life was all about optimising for getting more and more things done in less time, and with fewer resources.So I focused on the tactics and strategies on how to efficiently tick more things off the to-do list.I saw “do nothing” time as unproductive and I would feel bad about it.Couple this unhealthy mindset and the pandemic that pushed the workload at my day job to new levels of stress and overload (I worked in the healthcare)...It was a one-way road to burnout.Creating and then using my Slow Productivity systems in Notion (and in my life), has helped me slow down, rethink my approach to work, recover from burnout and put in place better habits to stop burnout from happening.It's completely improved my relationship with productivity.I like Notion because it’s flexible and customisable. Making it easy to design systems and workflows in Notion, that integrate Slow Productivity strategies and tactics.With 13+ years of real-world experience in workflow and process design, project management, training and leadership management, and 5+ years of designing Notion workflows and systems, I'm excited to help you get organised and more productive with your time and efforts.
