2023 Year in Review 

  • My Review of 2023 For Myself and Business 



2023 year in review- what a year. As I look back at this year a lot has happened! I found out I was pregnant in August 2022 after having a miscarriage in May 2022.

I laugh looking at some of these goals because I am and have always been overly ambitious and driven. A lot of these goals didn’t happen.. yet. But the personal changes that have happened in my life have of course been worth it! 

Even though not all my goals happened - it’s still important to celebrate them. This is something I struggle with. Do you struggle too?



Goals for 2023

I want to have 500 email subscribers on my email list. -I am still working on this

I want to have over 1000 followers on Instagram on both of my accounts - @jackiepartridge_ and @jackiepartridgeart. I have over 1000 on @JackiePartridgeArt. Make sure to follow my accounts! I appreciate your support!

I want to try running ads on social media to help me grow my list. I haven’t tried this yet - but did try ads with my new book

Review of the Year 2023 

A lot of the goals I had for the year for my art and business didn’t happen. That’s okay this year has been very transitional and new to me with moving and having a baby. We are far from family and don’t have frequent help taking care of the baby. I am still pleased with the progress I have made on my goals. I know I am someone who is overly ambitious.
