ABOUT ME

So who is this Productivity Diva?

Hey hey, I’m DaVette 🤍—mom of 3, wife, and a former hot mess express who could not stick to a routine to save her life. I tried everything—planners, apps, waking up earlier—and nothing stuck. My brain felt like 47 tabs open, I was constantly overwhelmed, and I was snapping way more than I wanted to. Honestly, I started to believe I just wasn’t the kind of mom who could “have it together.”

After 6+ years as a health and wellness coach (and deep in my own postpartum mom brain era), I realized something huge: everyone tells moms what to do—but no one shows us how to make it work in real life… with kids, chaos, and zero uninterrupted time. So I stopped trying to force systems that weren’t built for me and created one that actually worked with my mom brain.

Now, I help moms do the same—build simple habits that stick, create time for themselves, and feel calmer, more present, and in control (without becoming a type A robot). Everything inside my courses, planners, and tools comes from what I needed when I was in survival mode—so you can stop feeling like a hot mess and start feeling like the mom you know you can be.
