You want clarity.
You want a life that
feels like yours.

But right now? It feels like a lot, and you’re not quite sure where to start.

I get it, I’ve been there too.

I’m Annie, founder of It’s Me by Design and a mum of two. Along the way, I’ve also been a businesswoman, an expat and a woman navigating separation, plus quite a few other versions of myself.

One thing I’ve learned is that life keeps inviting us to meet ourselves again. Sometimes that invitation comes through a change we never wanted. Sometimes it’s simply the feeling that you’d love something different.

Your next chapter, by design.

Whether life has changed in a big way, you’re ready to rediscover yourself, or you’d love more financial freedom, It’s Me by Design gives you the tools, support and inspiration to create what’s next, on your terms.

The By Design way

Discover. Reimagine. Create.

Three simple movements sit underneath every pathway, so you always know where you are and what comes next.

01

Discover

Reconnect with who you are now: what you value, what you’ve outgrown and what lights you up.

02

Reimagine

Open up the possibilities. Explore what you’d love, not just what feels expected.

03

Create

Turn it into real steps, with practical tools, so the life you want starts taking shape.

In their words

I can’t tell you how much I needed this. Everything has felt like such a mess, and I’ve been terrified of getting things wrong. For the first time, I feel like I have some idea of what to do next. I know I’ve got a long way to go, but this has made it all feel a little less impossible.

After 34 years of marriage, I honestly had no idea where to begin. This helped me slow everything down, understand what needed my attention and feel like I could actually handle what came next.

The workbook was the thing for me. I’m a pen-and-paper person and it finally gave the receipts somewhere to go that wasn’t a carrier bag.

There’s so much more to us than the roles we’ve played.

Maybe life has taken an unexpected turn. Maybe you’re ready for something different. Or maybe you’re simply wondering what else could be possible.

Wherever you’re starting from, It’s Me by Design helps you find clarity, explore what matters to you now and take meaningful steps towards what comes next.
