It’s beautiful. It’s goal-oriented. It was designed for business owners….BY A MOM. I love it. From its lux gold corner things to its detail-oriented design, this planner has it all. It starts with a goal-setting section that guides you through making goals that are aligned with the values that you hold most dear. Then those goals get broken down by quarter and revisited monthly and quarterly throughout the planner. The monthly goal check-in and reflection is well thought out as is the extensive extras section at the back (budgeting, holiday gifting, savings goals, habit tracking, the list goes on and on). But really what sealed the deal for me is the weekly layouts.
You get two spreads per week. The first has room for reflecting and preparing as well as plenty of free note space. The second is your weekly time layout, complete with a daily agenda, water and movement tracker, top priorities for the week, and a to-do list by day. So here‘s where the magic is. On your Process and Prep page, you have space to brain-dump your to-dos for the week, then prioritize them, and then move them to the daily to-do lists. Daily to-do lists alone are amazing for keeping you focused on each day of the week, but I cannot begin to tell you how often I have to brain dump my to-do list outside of my planner before I can get it organized enough to put in my planner, this planner skips that whole step. My life is changed.
