Meet Darline,
Your Perfections Connections Friend
Hi, I’m Darline—a Flaws Coach and the founder of Perfections Connections.
I help people recognize the behaviors, habits, and emotional triggers that quietly sabotage their lives—and give them the tools to break free. Whether it’s fixing your own flaws or learning how to deal with the flaws of others (without losing your mind), I’m here to guide you with truth, heart, and a little humor.
At 72, I’ve lived long enough to understand what really matters—and what happens when we ignore it. I’ve seen how unchecked flaws damage relationships, careers, and confidence. Not just in my own life, but in the lives of people I’ve worked with, loved, and watched struggle unnecessarily.
That’s why I created Perfections Connections. It’s a place where we face our flaws without shame, learn how to grow through them, and build better relationships—starting with the one we have with ourselves.
I believe self-improvement shouldn’t feel like punishment. It should feel like finally giving yourself the tools to stop repeating the same patterns—and the peace that comes with knowing you’re becoming someone you’re proud of.
You don’t need perfection. You just need progress—and someone who gets it.
Let’s grow, flaws and all.

Flaws to Flourish
Welcome to my blog—a cozy corner of the internet where we delve into the art of live organization, the joy of creativity, and the journey of self-improvement. My name is Darline, and I’m here to share insights and stories that inspire and empower.
Born and raised in the scenic expanses of Minnesota, known affectionately as the Land of 10,000 Lakes, I've embraced the character-building cold of the winters and the nostalgic warmth of the summers. Now, splitting my time between Texas and Minnesota, I enjoy sunny winters and lakeside summers, making the most of both worlds with my family close by.
Having recently ventured into the thrilling world of mystery writing with my debut novel, "To Kill a Secret," I've found a new avenue to channel my creativity. However, my lifelong passion remains rooted in organization—a trait that my family often lovingly teases me about.
Here at Perfections Connections, I use my penchant for meticulous planning and list-making to help others bring order to their chaos. From worksheets to journals, I believe in the power of putting pen to paper to capture thoughts, set goals, and mark achievements. At 71 years young, I’m a testament to the fact that age is just a number when it comes to pursuing your passions and sharing your wisdom.
My journey has taught me that while we all have our quirks and flaws, recognizing and refining these imperfections can lead to profound personal growth. That’s why I focus not only on organizing external clutter but also on addressing the internal ones—those human imperfections that we often overlook.
In this blog, I’ll explore how embracing our imperfections and understanding the motivations behind others’ behaviors can pave the way to a happier, more fulfilled life. Whether you’re looking for practical tips to declutter your space or insights to declutter your mind, you’ll find guidance and inspiration here.
Join me as we tackle life’s challenges one checklist at a time, proving that it’s never too late to reshape our worlds and redefine our legacies. Let’s embark on this journey of inspiration and empowerment together.
