Tracy Teskey

Hi, I’m Tracy! I was born and raised in Kitchener-Waterloo, Ontario. I’ve always enjoyed planning. I remember as a young girl, I would ‘play business’ vs Barbies. I love a good calendar and all sorts of office supplies. I’m a creative person and danced competitively until I was 18. 

To this day, I love ballet. Tip: Ballet is a great way to stretch our hip flexors, which will help with our aging process gracefully.

When I was in my 20s, there was nothing better than on a Friday night to be in my home office, with a glass of wine and updating my net worth. I didn’t want to waste one penny of interest as I tried to dig my way out of some credit card debt, student loans, and life in general. My spreadsheets were born.

In 2019, I got serious about how to transition from corporate life to doing what I love. I am passionate about seeing women be financially confident, independent, and secure. This gives women power and a voice. Design Your Reality was born.

I’ve enjoyed a 25+ year career in the telecommunications industry. In October 2021, I officially took a six-month sabbatical to pour myself into Design Your Reality and my clients. I have been working to design my own reality for over 10 years, making a lot of tough life decisions.

I took my passion for my spreadsheets and the visual elements of planning with my calendars and created the “Ultimate 5-Year Design Your Reality” sessions. I love owning my rental properties and figured out I run a really good rental property business and can help others to do the same.

I love to ski, e-bike, swim in the lakes, and float in the sea. I love to travel (I’ll have to count the countries, but I’ve seen a lot, including Asia, Australia, and a lot of Europe). I built a house in Costa Rica in my 30s. I have a life partner that supports me on this journey, and I have clients that appreciate me.

I’m living my designed life and would love to learn more about you.
