Finally, a planner that actually helps you make time for the things that matter MOST.

Today, I’m thrilled to introduce you to the planner I’ve been using for the last year and a half. I don’t see myself ever using anything else. I’m in love!

See, for years, I’ve shared with you The Ultimate Planner Reviews, while answering questions and helping people choose their perfect planner.

And yet, I’d still been on the hunt for mine.

Don’t get me wrong, I had found planners & systems I really loved…for a time. But I never found a planner that worked for me in every season of my life.

I wanted everything in one place – one central reference guide to organize my chaotic life.

I wanted specific aspects of this dream planner, like monthly, weekly, AND daily views. Like meal planning worksheets and shopping lists that were already categorized. Like ways to track progress on my goals every single day. Like a ton of notes pages so I could keep my master lists right there in my planner. Every planner I found had one or two of these qualities, but never ALL of them. They always sacrificed something.

And I was tired of sacrificing functionality for a planner that was just pretty.

What I needed was a planner that could organize both my home life AND work life, and help me stay on top of both my daily responsibilities AND our long-term goals.

And so, The Organized Life Planner was born. And it has changed my life in the very best way. My hope is that it changes yours too, and becomes a tool that you can use to truly organize and simplify your life – getting everything down on paper so that you can actually clear your head, and make time for the things that matter most.

Ready to take a closer look? Check it out!

The Organized Life Planner Includes:

And the best part? It comes in two versions – a pre-printed version that comes shipped straight to your home, OR a print-at-home version that you can customize with our add-on planner packs!

For years, my “project list” was basically a p For years, my “project list” was basically a parking lot for good intentions.�Half-painted furniture, half-organized closets, half-started ideas.⁠
⁠
And honestly? They were eating up way more mental space than I realized.⁠
⁠
The real reason why I never finished anything is that �I was trying to finish everything.⁠
⁠
�At the same time. 😬⁠
⁠
Now focus on just ONE project to see through to the end before moving on.�⁠
⁠
It’s simpler. It’s doable. And it’s actually fun, because one finished project snowballs into another, and keeps your motivation going!!⁠
⁠
Ready to finish some of your own unfinished projects?⁠
�1️⃣ Brain dump every single project into one list⁠
�2️⃣ Pray + prioritize (urgent, soon, later)⁠
3️⃣ Focus on ONE project at a time until it’s done⁠
⁠
The best part? The list gets shorter. And our brains gets quieter.⁠
⁠
This is Step 4 of our Anchored Life Framework - I’ll be teaching all 4 steps in detail during our Finding Your Balance Workshop on Aug. 26th.�⁠

Confessions of a recovering perfectionist: If I do Confessions of a recovering perfectionist: If I don’t plan my rest, it doesn’t happen.⁠
⁠
For years, I thought rest would just… happen. But the truth is, it won’t. ⁠
⁠
Not in our hustle culture.⁠
⁠
Not when productivity is worshipped and busyness gets a gold star.⁠
⁠
God made us with limits on purpose. And He gave us the gift of rest!⁠
⁠
So for me, making rest a reality means means making it practical:
🗓 I schedule it into my planner every month.
💛 I choose activities that actually refresh my mind, body, and heart.
🙏 I treat it as important as work.⁠
⁠
Try it for yourself: Write down your own rest ideas, then schedule them weekly this month. I promise - it’ll change your pace and your peace!⁠
⁠
Share this with a friend who needs some realistic ideas for rest, too!⁠
⁠
P.S. This is Step 3 of our Anchored Life Framework - I’ll walk you through all 4 steps in the Finding Your Balance Workshop on Aug. 26th. Get the link to RSVP when you comment BALANCE below!
I used to keep my to-do list in about 12 different I used to keep my to-do list in about 12 different places - sticky notes, my phone, the corner of a notebook, my brain.
⁠
No wonder I felt behind all the time!⁠
⁠
Now I run our home from ONE Master Checklist. Everything we need to do fits into ⬇️⁠
* Daily Habits (the little things I want to remember each day)⁠
* Weekly Habits (routines that keep life running)⁠
* Monthly Projects (one-off tasks I don’t want to forget)⁠
⁠
This simple shift has saved me HOURS and so much mental energy!⁠
⁠
Want to try it for yourself?⁠
🖊️ Write down all your tasks
🎨 Highlight them as Dailies, Weeklies, or Monthlies
☑️ Organize the tasks by category⁠
📌 Post the list somewhere you’ll see it⁠, and check things off as you do them!⁠

I used to think saying “yes” to everything mad I used to think saying “yes” to everything made me a good friend, wife, and mom.
⁠
But really? All it really made me was…exhausted.
⁠
Now, when I'm trying to find some balance in our daily life, I start with our calendar - because if our schedule is out of control, everything else will be too.⁠
⁠
Here’s what’s working for us as a family right now:⁠
⁠
1️⃣ One master calendar // Shared with Jon, of course, so we’re always on the same page.
2️⃣ Color coding (IYKYK) // One color per person makes everything visual and clear.
3️⃣ Make it visual // I still put everything on a big paper calendar that hangs in our kitchen so I can see the whole month at once.
4️⃣ Protect the margin // Rest days, family nights, and church on Sunday are all non-negotiables.⁠
⁠
These 4 steps help me keep the calendar in check, and the balance in our home a little more...well, balanced!⁠
⁠
Want to hear more of what's working for me right now? I'll share a few more tips throughout the week, AND a ton more in next week's free workshop!! ⁠

This was a SUPER CUTE tea station not too long ago This was a SUPER CUTE tea station not too long ago.

But school starts tomorrow and we needed a space for homework + backpacks, so here we are! 

📲 Charging station for all devices because those babies don’t go into bedrooms, period. 

🖍️ Planter cups for every kind of pen or pencil or marker a student could possibly want.

🌼 Flowers for me because I cannot get enough of cut flowers in my 40’s. I LOVE THEM. 

This space is right between our kitchen and dining table. Is it the cutest ever? No, it’s not. But it’s super functional and keeps our priorities top of mind - no screens upstairs, family time in the evenings even if that includes homework, our house is meant to be lived in, not photographed. 

As the school year starts, ask yourself: “What can I do to make our spaces more functional? What activities do we need to be able to do here? How can I make that even easier?”

Function over fashion. I promise it’s worth it!

Alright, let's talk back-to-school meal prep!⁠
⁠
With school starting soon (today for my kids! 😭), the mental load of meal planning kicks up fast - but I’ve found a few simple things that help me stay sane:⁠
⁠
🍎 Create a Lunch Station.⁠
This little cart makes packing lunches super easy, and kid led. I have a sign that notes what exactly they need to pack, and that makes the next tip pretty genius ⬇️⁠
⁠
🧃 Teach the kids to pack their own lunches⁠
They can grab what they need from the fridge, pantry, or lunch station when they know what to look for. We keep things super simple - think fruit, protein, and one treat.⁠
⁠
🥪 Freeze-ahead sandwiches⁠
PB&J on sourdough freezes beautifully when you put the peanut butter on both sides with the jelly in the middle - no soggy bread! We make a week’s worth and toss them straight into lunchboxes frozen. Ready by noon!⁠
⁠
📋 Use the whiteboard⁠
We write out dinners, leftovers, and grab-n-go options so everyone knows what’s available - and I don’t have to answer “What’s for dinner?” 14 times.⁠
⁠
What’s helped YOU simplify meals during the school year?⁠
⁠
👇 Bonus tip: Our Back To School Prep Pack has worksheets for planning easy breakfasts, lunches, and dinners - perfect for this season! I'll send you the whole pack for free when you comment SCHOOL below!
