Project: Improve Me
Small steps to a better midlife
This is the place for women 40+ who want life to work better in the years ahead. Here you’ll find simple ways to clear digital clutter, rebuild money confidence, and capture the stories that matter. It’s about making space for what fits now, and shaping a second half that feels like your own.
Welcome friends!
Hi! I’m Kari and I created Project: Improve Me™ (aka PIM) because I know how messy and surprising midlife can feel since I’m right in the middle of it.
When my son moved out and started his own family, I suddenly had more space to think about me again. But, I didn’t want a full-life makeover. I just needed a way to untangle the parts I’d been pushing aside.
That’s what PIM is all about: one small step at a time. Whether it’s clearing your files, managing your money, or writing your story, this space gives you tools and encouragement to focus on what matters most.
I’m so glad you found your way here!
