Dear lovely artists, creatives, creators and thinkers! 🙂

Here's again some news from Lari, after a period of super-confusion, caused by tackling millions of things at the same time. Do you know the feeling? On the edge to fully overwhelmed, but still kind-of-semi-on-top-of-things-I-guess. 🥴

Studio Ghibli x Notion

Aaanyway. One super cool thing that came out of it is my new Notion template. An entire DIY Kit for a Studio Ghibli workspace.

It's 2-in-1:

a) A Project Management Setup, a really awesome one based on the P.A.R.A. method for Personal Knowledge Management (shoutout to my genius boyfriend, who's expert in PKM and teaches applying P.A.R.A. in Notion)

b) A set of Studio Ghibli decorations: 19 icons, 33 dividers, 46 headers and 71 images.

It's scalable and adaptable for any type of life organization (school, freelance work, art, business...). I find it super useful, plus enjoyable 😍 If you get it, it's got a humble price of 10€ due to the immense amount of time I invested building and curating everything 😂

Here is a video of me explaining the template in case you wanna see it in action first.

Writing

Another exiting thing is that I submitted some of my writing for the Medium writer's challenge 🤪 The task was to write about one of these topics: death, work, space or reentry.

My submission "Sunglasses in December" is about death of some parts of the ego...
I also wrote "What Drives You?", which is about work, motivation, and the role of emotions in there.

(Btw, I need 44 more followers on Medium to not be kicked out of the paid plan 😂 So feel free to give me a pity-click on the follow-button 🤪)

Real Job

Also, guess what, I finally got "a real job", can you believe it??? 🥳🎉 I am now officially Product Designer at Djeeny, we're building an app that enables you to learn anything you want: you type it in, and an AI provides you with a course that is not only relevant and professional, but also fits your exact learning style. Super excited to join a team so crazy business-savvy and especially visionary. (If you wanna be part of our test group and very first users, you can sign up for it on the website 😊)

Illustrations for Clients

Anything else... Oh, a fan of my 1000faces became a client, and then we even had a lovely tea&chat when he was in Berlin. 😍 Shoutout to Homesick Mac, warm wishes and huge thanks for the awesome collaboration!!

That's all for now... Wishing you a beautiful day, stay safe, goofy and unique. 💎🦾

Warm wishes to all of you from Berlin.
