In this video I’m catching up with you on how I usually plan my week—very casually, from my little “journaling/planning corner” that I’m still workshopping in my bedroom. I walk you through how my two main systems (my TRAVELER’s notebook and my PLOTTER) work hand-in-hand to manage both my work life and my personal life, including how I assign tasks, color-code, and try to make planning feel easier… although honestly, sometimes I’m like, is it really easier? I’m just trying to make it work in my favor. I show you my Monday planning flow: I start from a digital list as a jumping-off point, then I translate that into my weekly and monthly pages with simple color logic (red for urgent, blue for meetups/meetings). I also share how I give myself permission in January to test systems without forcing myself into a setup that doesn’t fit—because I’ve burned out doing that before. Along the way, you’ll see how I track things like workouts (with tiny star stickers), coffee runs, and online orders (because my brain likes batching purchases), plus a new vertical weekly insert I want to use as a daily log. If you’re trying to balance structure with flexibility, my biggest takeaway is: build a system that helps you reflect and remember—not one that pressures you to perform. I’m not here to push overconsumption; I’m here to help you find what you’ll actually use.
