Discover the heart behind Make Your Time Matter — a journey from burnout to balance, built on intentional living and trust in God’s timing.

About the Founder

Hi, I’m Willermine Taloute; but most people call me Mimi. I’m the founder of Make Your Time Matter, and before this became a brand, it was a lesson I had to learn the hard way.

I’m a New Yorker with a full-time career, a driven personality, and big dreams. Like many of us, I was taught that success meant doing everything “right.” So I did. I went to school. I earned the degree. I built a stable career. I worked hard. I stayed busy. From the outside, everything looked fine. But internally, I was exhausted, burned out, and overwhelmed. There were seasons when I felt unhappy and didn’t understand why. I had done everything I was told would lead to fulfillment; yet something felt missing. That was my wake-up call.

Through deep self-reflection, I realized something simple but life-changing: I wasn’t making time for myself. I wasn’t pausing. I wasn’t resting. I wasn’t pouring into my own well-being. I was surviving, not living intentionally.

So I began making small but transformative changes. I started prioritizing self-care. I allowed myself to slow down. I began giving myself the love and grace I had always extended to everyone else.

And that’s where the Make Your Time Matter journey began.

From Personal Healing to Purpose

As I started reclaiming my time, I noticed something else: I wasn’t alone.

My mom. My family. My friends. So many of us were juggling multiple jobs, side hustles, responsibilities, and expectations. We were constantly moving, yet rarely resting. In the chaos of ambition and survival, we were forgetting to make time for ourselves and the people and moments that truly bring joy.

That realization inspired me to create the Make Your Time Matter podcast, a space where I could share my story and encourage others to pause, reflect, and prioritize their well-being without guilt.

But the journey didn’t stop there.

Faith, Peace, and a New Foundation

Along the way, I learned one of the most powerful lessons of my life: to trust God and His divine timing.

When I made God the center of my life, not just an afterthought, everything shifted. My anxiety softened. My heart felt lighter. I experienced a deeper peace that achievement alone could never give me.

I realized that true balance isn’t just about scheduling time off. It’s about alignment: spiritually, emotionally, and mentally. And that deeper alignment became the heart of this brand.

The Vision Today

What started as a podcast has grown into something more. A mindfulness movement rooted in intentional living, faith, and self-reflection.

Through guided meditations, reflective journals, workshops, and community spaces, my mission is to help you:

• Slow down without guilt
• Reconnect with yourself
• Deepen your faith
• Create moments that truly matter

Make Your Time Matter is for those who live busy lives but crave more balance, joy, and purpose. It’s for the ambitious woman who wants success, but not at the cost of her peace.

The journey is just beginning. And I’m building this community for people like us, driven, faithful, and learning how to live more intentionally.

A Personal Note

If you’re here, I believe it’s not by accident.

No matter how full your schedule may be, you deserve a life filled with joy, purpose, and moments that belong just to you.

Let’s make time for what truly matters — together.

With love,
Mimi 🤍

Our Core Values

Intentional Living: We believe life should be lived on purpose, not on autopilot. Through reflection, mindfulness, and faith, we encourage you to create moments that truly matter instead of simply reacting to life’s demands.

Faith First: God is the foundation of everything we do. When we put Him at the center, we find clarity, peace, and the courage to trust His timing over our own.

Growth with Grace: Personal growth is a journey, not a race. We believe in becoming better each day while extending compassion to ourselves along the way.

Community Over Competition: We rise by supporting one another. This is a space rooted in encouragement, collaboration, and shared growth, not comparison.

Peace Over Pressure: Success should never come at the cost of your well-being. We choose alignment, balance, and inner peace over hustle-driven pressure.
