Who We Are
We believe that every person deserves the opportunity to become the author of their own story—and no one should have to write it alone.
Life shapes us through every experience—both joyful and painful. But no matter what chapters have come before, they do not have to define the ones still waiting to be written.
At Set Priorities, we are building a compassionate global community where people reconnect with their authentic selves, transform adversity into growth, and create lives guided by awareness, purpose, and meaningful connection.
Through transformational writing, coaching, mindfulness, creativity, and shared human experience, we walk beside those who are ready to embrace change, discover their inner strength, and write the next chapter of their lives with intention.
Because transformation begins with a single conscious choice.
One story. One conscious choice at a time.
Our mission
Writing as healing
Our mission is to inspire people to live with greater awareness, courage, and compassion.
We believe that lasting transformation begins when we take ownership of our story, embrace our authentic selves, and choose growth over fear.
Through transformational writing, coaching, mindfulness, creativity, and a supportive global community, we empower individuals to turn adversity into wisdom, reconnect with what truly matters, and create lives that reflect their deepest values rather than their deepest wounds.
Together, we are writing a future where every story has the power to inspire hope, strengthen communities, and remind others that change is always possible.
Our Vision
One story. One conscious choice at a time.
We aspire to build a global community of conscious, compassionate, and resilient individuals who choose awareness over autopilot, courage over fear, and purpose over pain. Our vision is to empower people to transform adversity into growth, reconnect with their authentic selves, and live in alignment with their values, priorities, and deepest aspirations. Through transformational writing, coaching, mindfulness, creativity, and meaningful human connection, we believe every person can become the author of their own story rather than a prisoner of their past. Together, we are creating a world where emotional well-being, personal responsibility, lifelong learning, and authentic connection become the foundation of healthier families, stronger communities, and a more compassionate society.
At Set Priorities, we creating sense of belonging
OUR CODE OF HONOR
We believe that every life can change through one conscious choice at a time. This Code of Honor is not a set of rules — it is a commitment to the person we are becoming and to the community we are creating together.
We choose responsibility over blame.
We honor our past without allowing it to define our future. We accept responsibility for the choices we make today because they shape the life we create tomorrow.
We choose courage over comfort.
Growth begins where fear ends. We embrace difficult conversations, honest self-reflection, and the discomfort that leads to transformation.
We choose awareness over autopilot.
We pause before reacting. We become curious about our thoughts, emotions, and behaviors, knowing that awareness is the first step toward lasting change.
We choose authenticity over perfection.
We show up as we are—not as who we think we should be. We believe vulnerability is a strength, not a weakness.
We choose compassion without enabling.
We meet ourselves and others with kindness, empathy, and respect while encouraging personal responsibility and growth.
We choose progress over comparison.
Every journey is unique. We celebrate every step forward, no matter how small, and refuse to measure our worth against someone else’s path.
We choose truth over illusion.
We write honestly. We speak honestly. We face reality with courage because truth creates freedom.
We choose learning over certainty.
Every experience carries a lesson. Every challenge offers an opportunity to grow. We remain lifelong students of ourselves and of life.
We choose connection over isolation.
Healing and transformation happen in community. We listen without judgment, support without rescuing, and encourage without controlling.
We choose creation over survival.
We are not here merely to endure life—we are here to create it intentionally. We use our experiences, talents, and creativity to build lives filled with purpose, meaning, and contribution.
We choose gratitude over resentment.
We honor what life has taught us, even when the lessons were painful. Gratitude allows us to move forward with hope rather than remain anchored in the past.
We choose to become the author of our own story.
Our past may explain us, but it does not define us. Every day offers a blank page. Every decision is a new sentence. Every conscious choice shapes the story we will tell.
OUR PROMISE
Together, we are building more than a community. We are building a movement of people who choose awareness over autopilot, purpose over pain, courage over fear, and love over judgment.
We believe that when one person transforms, families begin to heal.
When families heal, communities become stronger.
When communities become stronger, the world becomes more compassionate.
Why Walk This Journey With Us?
Everything we create is inspired by a simple belief: no one should have to carry their pain alone. We understand that every person’s journey is unique, which is why we offer a compassionate space where stories can be explored without judgment, strengths can be rediscovered, and new possibilities can emerge.
Through transformational writing, mindfulness, coaching, creativity, and genuine human connection, we help people reconnect with themselves, find meaning in their experiences, and move forward with greater clarity, resilience, and purpose.
Our work is shaped by both professional learning and lived experience. We understand that meaningful transformation cannot be rushed, forced, or measured by perfection. It begins with feeling safe, seen, and supported.
Every program is thoughtfully designed to inspire self-awareness, encourage honest reflection, and help each individual discover the strength, wisdom, and resilience that already exist within them.
We don’t promise to change your life.
We promise to walk beside you as you learn to change it yourself.
We believe that the deepest transformations unfold over time, through small, conscious choices made day after day. That is why our commitment to you does not end with a completed program—it grows alongside your journey.
Set Priorities is more than a place to learn; it is a community to return to. A place where you are seen, encouraged, and inspired to keep becoming the person you were always meant to be.
As you grow, new doors may open—to write and publish your story, share your gifts, support others, or become part of the mission that first inspired your own transformation. We believe that those who have found light within themselves often become the ones who help illuminate the path for others.
No matter where you are on your journey, you will always have a place here.
Because every story matters.
Every voice has value.
And every person has the capacity to create a life of purpose, connection, and hope.
Who is behind Set Priorities?
My name is Tijana Tucic but this name and my body is not who I truly am. I wasn’t born into the life I have today. I was born in Yugoslavia in 1977, into a world marked by poverty, fear, and uncertainty. My childhood was shaped by abuse, violence, and experiences that no child should ever have to endure. I survived sexual abuse, war, bombing, and years of living without even the most basic necessities. For much of my life, I believed that pain was simply my destiny. But somewhere along the way, something inside me refused to give up. It refused to accept that this is it – a three dimensional world and nothing more. I began to understand that while I could not change what had happened to me, I could choose what will happen next.
That realization changed everything.
It wasn’t a single moment or a miracle. It was thousands of small, conscious choices made over many years. Choosing responsibility instead of blame. Hope instead of despair. Growth instead of fear. As a single mother, I worked night shifts in a factory while studying at university. I built a home for my daughter one brick at a time. I built a career in corporate leadership, eventually becoming a Lean Manager and Continuous Improvement Consultant, helping organizations transform the way they think and work. Yet the greatest transformation wasn’t happening around me. It was happening within me. I discovered that the principles used to transform organizations could also transform lives. That our thoughts could be rewired. That limiting beliefs could be replaced. That our stories could become bridges instead of prisons.
Today, I know something with absolute certainty:
Our past may explain us, but it never has to define us.
That belief became the foundation of Set Priorities.
People often ask why I do this work.
The answer is simple.
Because I know what it feels like to believe there is no way forward. And I know what it feels like to discover that there is.
My mission is not to rescue people.
It is to remind them of the strength they already carry within themselves.
I believe every person has the capacity to transform adversity into wisdom, reconnect with their authentic self, and create a life filled with meaning, courage, and joy.
Through transformational writing, mindfulness, coaching, creativity, and genuine human connection, I hope to create a space where people feel safe enough to be honest, brave enough to grow, and inspired enough to write the next chapter of their lives with intention.
Set Priorities was born from one simple belief:
One conscious choice has the power to change a life.
And one transformed life has the power to change a family.
A family can change a community.
A community can change the world.
I don’t believe we are defined by the worst thing that has ever happened to us.
I believe we are defined by the courage to keep writing our story.
That is why I am here.
Not because I have all the answers.
But because I have walked through darkness, found light, and now want to leave the path a little brighter for those who come after me.
If my story helps even one person believe that a different future is possible, then every challenge I have lived through has found its purpose.
Welcome.
I’m grateful you’re here.
Let’s write the next chapter together.
One story. One conscious choice at a time.
