A creative at all fronts— Noelle Lejano shows us a glimpse of how her background, the little pieces that make up her routine, and a strong affinity for putting in the work & discipline to make goals happen, all work together in her journey as a Woman in Progress®️. Get to know more about her:
Tell us something about yourself!
I used to be a competitive dancer in high school and college, which I believe has influenced much of my work ethic today.
Where or which aspect of your life do you want to see progress in?
I want to see more progress in my creative process, from inspiration to execution!

Talk us through your favorite routine (day or night).
Every morning, I'm up at 6:00 AM and go straight to do my daily devotion and journaling. Afterward, I work out for an hour and then make a cup of coffee (my favorite part of the day!). I'll shower, go over my calendar and to-do list for the day, then snack on something nutritious like greek yogurt! Typically I'll be done with this routine at around 8:30 AM, which gives me enough time to relax before the work starts pouring in.
