It’s the most versatile and customizable platform for personal and professional organization + productivity—one you can use to run every area of your life and business:

That’s why I created Notion Mastery

Hi, I’m Marie Poulin, Notion Ambassador and Notion Certified Consultant.

When I tried Notion for the first time back in 2017, it didn’t quite “click.” I knew it had potential, but wasn’t sure how to harness it.

As a long-time Evernote + Asana + Dropbox + Google Drive user, I was frustrated that my planning, tasks, files, ideas, and resources felt messy and fragmented.

It wasn’t until I tried using Notion to help me manage my permaculture diploma that I began to see what was possible, and why this tool was so incredible.

I took a chance and moved everything over to Notion, and it was a complete game-changer. I was finally able to build a system that worked for my ADHD brain.

I could now visualize all my work and commitments in one place, and got better visibility into where my time and effort was going (compared to where I thought it was going).

But even with years of systems training and design experience, it was still a time-consuming challenge. Notion is wildly open-ended, and if you don’t already have well-established systems, processes, and routines, it’s easy to recreate the same dysfunctional patterns from your old tools within Notion.

Since 2019, I’ve taught thousands of people how to use Notion to design their life and business operating systems and workflows, and have built a team that specializes in workflow optimization with Notion.

We’ve condensed our best practices and workflows into a robust online course and community to support you through the process of going from scattered to streamlined with Notion.

Let us show you what is possible with this incredible tool!

**If you’re ready to stop procrasti-planning and playing whac-a-mole with your to-do list, join us in Notion Mastery.**

Who this course is for

Notion is ideal for you if you want more granular control over your task management, goal setting, and personal knowledge management systems, and value integration.

You’re a good fit for this course if:

You’re ready to commit to Notion as a key part of your technical stack.
You are the owner of your workspace, and work either solo or with a team smaller than 5.
You generally feel overwhelmed or frustrated with your current workflow, and your task list is giving you major side-eye.
You’re looking for long-term shifts in your systems and workflows, not quick fixes.
You recognize that despite all the fanciest templates, you will still need to put in the work to customize your workspace to your own needs.
You’re willing to be patient with yourself as you learn both a new tool, and a new way of being. This may involve confronting feelings of frustration or perfectionism!

You’re NOT a good fit for this course if:

You’re still on the fence about Notion, and — OH LOOK A NEW SHINY!!
You’re rushed or panicked, and don’t have time to invest in developing a workspace that works for you.
You’re trying to get a large team onboarded onto Notion quickly.
You’re looking for a quick fix for years of disorganization and lack of good systems.
You expect/require your workspace to be perfect and aren’t interested in the work of customizing your space.
You’re looking for Notion to behave exactly like all the other tools you’re used to.
You’re concerned you might be joining a cult.
