My goal was to get smartsheet certified and learn how to build a Dashboard. I obtained the Core Product certification in June and have now built and deployed two dashboards for my department. My next goal will be obtaining the Smartsheet Project Management Certification before winter.

Wow, this is a great question. Well during COVID, I bought a home, we are a one-income household (like many people these days), but I managed to afford a big house for us. We have the ability to host for the holidays, as we are in a central location for everyone. Yes, it is a lot of work cooking and cleaning all week. But there is nothing more important than family! In fact today (7/3) in my grandson Liam's FIRST birthday. And despite owning our home for only 4 years we have paid off $40K and have over $100K in equity. In our down time my husband. These are the moments I live for!

My personal fitness goals are going well. Have I missed a few gym days? Maybe… Overall though I've never been healthier or felt [physically] better!

What is a personal goal you've set for yourself this year, and how is it going?

I made a promise to myself, when my kid was more independent (now 17+), I would focus on me more. This year I have taken steps to do just that and am on my wellness track- mental and physical. It's been painful and peaceful, eye opening and thought provoking.

My goal was to pass the Core Product Certification test…and I did June 29th 😁

Even though I didn’t share a goal back in January, I’ve had a few personal milestones in mind this year—and I’m excited to share that I’m making solid progress!

😉 Get Smartsheet Certified – Completed just this past weekend!
😁 Understand Formulas – After six weeks of focused study for the certification exam, the concepts finally clicked.
😃 Reapply for the Overachievers Program – Submitted!
☺️ Gain deeper knowledge of core Smartsheet functionality – With three years of daily use under my belt, I’m continuing to explore features and best practices every day.

It feels great to pause and reflect—this software continues to empower me and challenge me to grow. Looking forward to what the rest of the year brings!
