WTF is Project GYST?

Written By Gabriella Nolen

Hiii. I’m Gabriella, the owner of Ella Creative Studio, and I’m here to answer the question that’s probably on your mind: WTF is Project GYST? Let’s break it down.

WHERE IT ALL STARTED

At Ella Creative Studio, we’ve always loved sharing our favorite tools and templates. It started as a side thing—a way to showcase the resources that kept our studio running smoothly. But over time, this little idea started growing. It gained a personality of its own, and eventually, it became clear: Project GYST deserved its own branding and dedicated space. And so, it was born.

WHAT IS GYST?

GYST—short for Get Your Sh!t Together ❤️‍🔥— is a project powered by Ella Creative Studio. It’s where we share the systems, templates, and tools that inspire us and make our lives—and our business—more organized, efficient… and dare we say, aesthetically pleasing. From sleek Notion templates to game-changing workflows, GYST is all about helping you simplify, streamline, and succeed.

SYSTEMS & SIMPLICITY, BABY… but make it aesthetic :)

I’ve always been fascinated by systems and the art of simplification. There’s something deeply satisfying about taking a chaotic process and transforming it into something clean, organized, and functional. To me, good systems are like a secret weapon—they don’t just save time and energy; they create clarity, focus, and freedom.

And let’s be honest: life can be messy, especially when you’re balancing creative pursuits, business goals, and personal aspirations. That’s where GYST comes in. It’s our way of saying, “Hey, we’ve got tools to make this easier—and they’re pretty damn sleek too.”
