September is before us! No matter how August went, there is a new month ahead. Let's use this month to soak into things that delight us and the people we love so much.

Key Takeaways for your September Prep Pages:
- This is all about progress, not perfection. There is so much joy to be found along the way! Not just at the finish line. It's okay to grow slow!
- Your tending list doesn't need to be perfect! Just choose what you think works best for the month ahead. Remember, you will not finish this month checking everything off your list!
- Have a little fun with your encouraging words section. What are the words you're going to need throughout this month? Write yourself a pep-talk in advance!
- Quick color coding tip: Assign a color to each one of your big picture goals and then assign that same color to each of your action items on your tending list.
- Create momentum! Make sure you take some of your tending list items and do something with them while they're fresh on your mind. Even the tiniest step forward to get the momentum going will help you!
- Take a picture of your tending list and make it your phone background!
