Expect miracles

Expect miracles. I have been taking deep dives lately (some of them into woo woo land) and trying to practice self-care and all that good stuff. Last week’s #homwork assignment to watch a video of someone who inspires you and to take notes. Gabby Bernstein has been a huge source of inspiration for me since I met her almost 9 years ago at the Brentwood Lululemon store when she was promoting her first book, Add More ~ing. Last week my assistant and I took a mid-day break to watch the Ted Talk, How to be a Miracle Worker, and used the brand new Koi Creative Art Colors set from Sakura and my favorite Tim Holtz water brush to write down what resonated with us.

Thanks Lauren Hom for the fun! Any videos inspiring you lately?

Bullet Journal Weekly Before + After

This is what my bullet journal looked like at the beginning of the week. The spread took a little too long to put together and I’m rethinking continuing with a bullet journal after this month is over. Just when I thought I was close to “planner peace”. Ha! My main motivation for moving onto another system is that I would ideally just like more time to create/decorate/journal instead of having to set it up every time.

Although now that the week is nearly over, I am loving the way this looks. So who knows what I will actually do. When I was at PlannerCon, I bought the Hobonichi Cousin Spring edition (April start), so I am really excited to give that a go. We still have some planner pouches left - if you haven't gotten yours yet, I would highly recommend doing so soon! Also, how cute is the rainbow suitcase from Rabbit Ladders? What are your plans for the weekend? 💛

Planner Pouch Pre-Sale is on!

We are bursting with excitement over here 💕  This has been in the works since last summer and it's finally here! Well, almost... The new Planner Pouch is now available for pre-order!! 

We designed it so it’s perfectly sized to fit your favorite supplies including pens, stickers, and even an A5 bullet journal! And for those who asked, traveler's notebooks also fit in it! Use it for planning and memory-keeping on the go - or whatever you want - and fill it with all the good stuff.

Planner pouches will begin shipping at the end of February, but all pre-orders placed before 2/20 will receive the cutest mini rainbow washi tape!

If you have any questions, leave them below and I will try and shoot a YouTube video with the answers. I can't wait to see how you put your own planner pouch to use!

Last week in my Bullet Journal

Throwing it back to last week in my bullet journal. Had to add Oprah's speech from the Golden Globes to the Love List too after taking this photo. If you missed it, definitely watch it and here is the full transcript of her inspiring and powerful words.

This weekly vertical format is what I think I will do for most of January. It did take quite a bit of time to put together, which is motivating in the beginning of things and can be hard to sustain for someone like me. For those asking if I will put together a video, I will likely do a flip through and insights into what’s been working. Going to do a currently list (like I used to do on this blog) about once a month. Thanks for all the suggestions on what to do at the bottom - turns out it’s easy to maintain a weekly habit tracker. What’s your favorite thing about your planner and what system works for you?

Happy New Year!

Back in the studio today after an eventful last couple of weeks! Hope your holidays were wonderful. In case you missed the big news on Instagram, I thought I would include it here as well. And over 10,000 likes - whoa!!! I think I will work on a comprehensive blog post about it, so if you have any questions, let me know and maybe I can answer them! 

I've decided to start a new bullet journal (in Emerald) even though I failed miserably at keeping up in December. Do you think I should color this in or leave it as is?
