Hi! I am Nadja Carabulea.

Independent developer.

Former Agile coach.

I build tools for focused, purposeful work.
I call it Fulfilling Productivity.

Fulfilling Productivity is about choosing what’s worth your attention and staying with it. Focused work leads to better results, clearer decisions, and more satisfying work — not by moving faster, but by working with intention.

That’s what I practice and I believe in.
And that’s what my tools support.


The real problem I kept seeing


Across freelancers, teams, and organizations, the same pattern kept appearing: people working on too many things at once, with little clarity what matters most.

The issue wasn’t efficiency, but effectiveness.


One Agile principle captures this perfectly:

“Maximize the amount of work not done.”

Direction before speed. Importance before activity.


Yet most productivity tools ignore this. They help you organize and accelerate work — but not decide whether the work is worth doing.

Why freelancers benefit most


Freelancers juggle client work, operations, marketing, and constant decision-making. That level of context switching makes it easy to stay busy while losing sight of what actually moves things forward.


At the same time, freelancers are expected to experiment constantly: develop ideas, test offers, validate directions, and adjust course. That requires slowing thinking down enough to make deliberate choices, test assumptions systematically, and avoid committing too early to the wrong work.


The Fulfilling Productivity tools are designed to support exactly this kind of work: deliberate thinking, systematic experimentation, and focused execution on what truly matters.
