Why I Created Vivela365 - And Why It Matters For You
The Problem - When Life Feels Like a Cycle You Can't Escape
Everything has become too generic and there is not enough time to finish all my to do list. That is a big problem, Why? Because instead of ending your day grateful and fulfilled you are laying on your bed at 10 p.m. exhausted and not knowing how is it possible that not long ago it was 6 a.m and now is 10 p.m. Guess what the cycle starts again in 8 hours. On top of that products sold for productivity seem to be simple and useful, but in reality they are empty and without any real guidance to help you feel accomplished. Does this sound familiar?
What We need to Understand for Once and for all
We were not designed to be the same or identical to our neighbor. We are design to be truthful to our nature and our potential. Our brains are precious but they contain so much information that is hard to keep track of everything at the same time, and don't even make me start with the mother's brain, we go from remembering everything to don't even know what day of the week it is. In simpler words our brains can go from relax to chaotic without you noticing it. All of a sudden you scheduled more appointments you can handle, there is not enough time in the day to spend time with the kids, hubby, friends, or even with yourself. As a 25-year old going from a chaotic college life thinking I could move on didn't realize that a relationship with a spouse, parenting, working, and studying can't just be figured out in my head. By the time I turned 25 I knew I need to break hard and balance my life otherwise I was going to be nuts. I was trying to take care of everyone but was forgetting to take care of myself, the most important person I've ever known.
My Journey - What Led Me To Create Vivela365
I have always been crazy about notebooks, journals, everything that included a cute cover, this doesn't mean glitter, and pages to write things on, and of course pens, it doesn't matter which one because I wanted all of them. As a 10-year old, the content did not matter at all, but then I turned 19 and college hit me. I had so many assignments that I didn't know how to organize myself. After a couple of semesters, I served a mission for my church that helped me understand the importance of organizing my time wisely and planning with purpose. When I returned home, I thought I had it figured it out. I started my college classes again and was putting into my generic planners what I had to do. Here is when I first felt that I was missing something: I had space to write down some of my todo lists but I did not have space for all the other things that were part of my plan. And then the big breakdown happen when I got married and a year later I had my first baby. I felt like my whole world was like a snowball going down hill chaotically, lost, and without any direction. None of the agendas or planners I tried helped me. I needed like four different notebooks to put all my thoughts into paper. Because I got tired and I needed to simplify my planning sessions and because as a mom time alone is scarce, I decided to use my design skills to build Vivela365 and take a leap of faith, or risk it all.
What Vivela365 Is - and What Makes It Different
Because of all those reasons I decided to start a project, and hopefully it will become a movement that gives you the tools to live your days with purpose and end each day feeling truly alive. Vivela365 is a physical agenda with a digital companion designed to help you live every day the way you dream it, desire it, and plan it. You might be asking what any of this has to do with an agenda or a planner. Well, believe it or not, it has everything to do with your whole being.
Vivela365 is not just a planner — it is a complete personal development system. The physical agenda guides you through setting short, medium and long term goals that work together and align with your deepest purpose. Every page was designed intentionally to help you track not just your tasks, but your emotions, your habits, your growth and your connection to what truly matters to you.
But we did not stop there. Vivela365 also has a digital companion app that allows you to scan your handwritten pages and import them directly into your smartphone — because there is something irreplaceable about the feeling of pen on paper, and we never want you to lose that. The app also connects you through QR codes inside the planner to additional resources you cannot hold in print — things like curated music playlists for meditation, affirmations you can record and listen back to in your own voice, and guided tools to support your journey every single day.
Vivela365 was designed for the woman who is done feeling like she is running behind her own life — and for the man who is ready to live with the same intention and clarity. This is why we are creating two editions — Vivela365 Ella and Vivela365 Él — because personal growth does not belong to just one of us. It belongs to all of us.
Why We Exist - Our Mission and Vision
From the very beginning, everything about Vivela365 has been built around one core belief — that every person deserves to feel deeply satisfied with the life they are living. Time is one of our most precious resources, and when we use it with intention, we experience genuine joy and fulfillment. We are committed to helping every individual connect with their inner self, honor all of their emotions, establish healthy habits, and set meaningful goals that create the adjustments and transformations they are seeking. Because when we are aligned with our true purpose, we do not just exist — we truly live.
That belief lives in five pillars that guide everything we build:
Intentional Time — We help you invest your time in ways that generate real joy, meaning and lasting fulfillment.
Inner Connection — We create space for you to connect with your most authentic self and recognize your true potential.
Emotional Wholeness — We honor all emotions as valid and necessary guides on the path to personal growth — yes, even the ones that are uncomfortable.
Purposeful Goals — We guide you in setting goals that create real and lasting transformation, not just a checked box on a to-do list.
Healthy Habits — We support the development of daily habits that build the foundation for the long term wellbeing you deserve.
Our vision is simple. We want every person who uses Vivela365 to end each year feeling genuinely successful, fulfilled and deeply connected to the life they are intentionally creating — one day, one page, one intention at a time.
Where We Are - A First Look at Vivela365
Let me introduce you to the logo of the brand. Vivela365 focuses on the whole being. It is organic and sophisticated at the same time. How is it organic? The characters are connected and there is a natural flow that suggests confidence while being readable and directed. The asymmetrical shape is a circle that suggest the being as a whole in a holistic way.
Over the past weeks, we have experimented with a number of different color palettes for Vivela365, and we settled on this palette that exudes calm confidence and features colors that contrast nicely with one another.
These are some of the first few pages of the agenda. Designing these pages has helped lay the foundation for the remainder of the agenda.
What Comes Next - An Invitation to Follow the Journey
Thank you for being here for the start of Vivela365's journey. Over the next weeks, I will continue to develop the rest of the agenda, along with accompanying resources. Follow along to get a sneak-peek of the product as it moves through development!
Join us to create a deeper relationship with yourself. One day, one page, one intention at a time.
