About Excellently Imperfect
Hi! I’m Crystal Gordon Tate and I am the founder and CEO of Excellently Imperfect. I’m 37 and just celebrated my 3rd anniversary with my husband, who is my best friend, business partner, ministry partner, sounding board…and oldest child 😉 I’m the bonus mom of an 11-year-old boy whom I fell for just about as quickly as I fell for his dad. Raising a boy is an experience like none other, but he’s a very loving, smart and respectful kid so we really couldn’t ask for anything more. Except maybe a clean room and not to find socks all over the house 😛
So what is Excellently Imperfect? It’s a philosophy, a lifestyle, a standard; it’s a way of life. It’s…me. I strive to do everything with an attitude of excellence but keep myself armed with a healthy dose of forgiveness. That simply means that I always want to give my all, in excellence, but I recognize that perfection is unattainable.
What you’ll find on Excellently Imperfect
My goal is to help each one of us live our individual best lives. I want us all to identify what our individual core values are, what our true desires are and make sure the two align. I will share my excellently imperfect life with you and challenge you to find your own…YOUR dreams, YOUR desires, YOUR beliefs, YOUR standards and much more. I desire for us to all strive for excellence in whatever we do, but be ready with loads of self-love, forgiveness and plans B-Z for when we miss the mark…because we will. I will talk about all things related to faith, fitness/wellness/health, life, love and food because I believe we can’t just focus on one area if we want to be well-rounded.
A word of “caution”
Before she passed, my mother would always tell people “Crystal will stay out of your business and keep her opinion to herself, but once you ask her, you open the door…so don’t ask if you aren’t ready to hear the truth, because she’s going to tell you the truth.” So I hope you seek truth, because that is all I give. Not out of cruelty or callousness, but out of a desire to help us all be the very best versions of ourselves that we can be – to enable us to decide who we
want to be and push to become those excellently imperfect people.
Thanks for stopping by!
Crystal
