Amanda, I sent my daughter your video on the MomAgenda; she sent back a note, “Mom, that’s the most perfect planner for YOU, order it!” I did (thank you for the affiliate link). I am going back to my old-fashioned command central planner, with an EC monthly for projects. I enjoyed my foray into C&P and others, but I’m actually old-fashioned and simple. I think MyAgenda will suit me and stop the “try it all” anxiety 🌸

This might be my favorite video of yours. I love seeing how you are using all these planners. I was feeling really guilty as this year I have a Day designer weekly, sugar paper weekly, Steph Pase daily (australian), spaces planner, whitney english undated weekly, and my usual fall back Mom agenda that I have been using for over 10 years. I play with all the others for a few days or weeks at the beginning of the year then end up back in my momagenda or myagenda complaining that it doesn't have everything. After seeing your video, I realised I could use the others for something else. So many good ideas in today's video - thank you!

One, I love that EC pouch and am looking forward to not only the video you described but I am sure you will be doing an EC launch video and look forward to both! I went down a rabbit hole myself in the planner world this year, but I ended up in the EC monthly which I kinda use as a bullet journal. I keep trackers and yearly lists in the back notes section and my weekly to dos up with my month. It has been the best change for me.

I feel like I've been all over the place which usually doesn't bother me. Now it has been bothering me so I'm trying to go back to basics. Flipping through old planners has helped. I've kind of jumped ahead to 2025 and what I will not be doing next year planner wise. A planner find for me has been the Inamio weekly planner that I got from Amazon. I've also been really enjoying the She Plans Sewn Daily Planner. Also still enjoying my Happy Planners.

I love these video. I always appreciate being able to see how the planners are actually used functionally. For myself, in previous years I used simplified daily consistently and the weekly I changed but I always went back to simplified as well. This year I decided to change and started with hobonichi weeks and a6. It was great at first I really loved the portability for my daily as well as my weekly. Couple weeks ago I jumped back to my simplified weekly, and really enjoyed it. As small as it is, after being in the tiny hobonichi weeks, it feels like it has so much space and I love it. I don’t know if I’ll stick with it until the end of the year because I don’t think the size of their new weekly will work for me. I don’t know if I’ll try to go back to my hobonichi weeks or try to find something else. Oh and I also grabbed your collab planner with Ashley Shelly and I love it!

I also have tried too many planners this year. I was sticking pretty good to the Common Planner A5 from November to February, and then March came and I've been in Makeselife, a random bullet journal, and an Amplify Planner quarterly. My main thing is that even though I liked the Common Planner, the paper was thin and the grid was small, so I was using a 0.28 pen to make it work. I also missed having a coiled book. So. When April 15 comes, I decided I'm starting FRESH in July with an Erin Condren, horizontal Evolve layout academic year. I want to be in tune with school years when my kid starts school in a few years anyway, so the academic should be perfect. To fill the additional need that I liked about the Common Planner, I've already gotten a coiled EC notebook in the grid layout so the two books together should be exactly what I've been looking for.
@AmandasFavorites 3 ай бұрын
Oh, lovely combo! And I always like the academic year too...especially when my kids were in public school;) Sometimes we have to try a few before we land on what works for the season we are in;)

I love your videos! I am using Laurel Denise (as reviewed by you). I really love it! I can put all of my thoughts and structure out my time wonderfully in it. I use a notebook to write down new To-do's or just clear my head of important to-do's during the day and transfer to Laurel Denise later. I also love the monthly Planner Perfect planner. I use it for my fitness and it is perfect (ha!) because of the 4 days of notes in between each month. Still I love to keep learning about planners and planning!

I purchased the Erin Condren weekly planner last year and didn't care for it. I have purchased the MakseLife weekly flagship planner for three years in a row now. I especially love and respect CEO Sierra Friend, and am impressed by the MakseLife corporate values and philosophy. I also purchased the Sprouted Planner 2024 daily planner for the first time this year and am really liking that too. I will probably purchase these same two planners in 2025. Thank you Amanda for telling me about these planners.

Oh, this was so much fun, Amanda. Thank you for sharing. I have a corporate job, and we use Google Calendar for work, so all my schedules are on the computer. However, I like paper planners for personal use. I use Planner Perfect for daily routine and habit tracking. Inspired by you, I ordered your ASHLEY SHELLY planner and useing it as a wall planner at work (I loved that idea from you). For the top three daily priorities, I have a LAUREL DENISE planner. I also ordered an ERIN CONDREN life planner just because I love it and can't imagine my life without it. For journaling, I use Hobonichi; the ghosting doesn't bother me, and I love the paper quality. I'm also using a Hobonichi A6 for journaling.

Oh, okay! I understand the question now;) There are so many sticker companies out there. Most are not made specific for A5 horizontal spreads. But most decorative stickers will work...you just need smaller ones. The Erin Condren monthly Edition sticker book that has a page per month has a few small decorative stickers for each month and I think that would work great in the A5:) Hope that helps.
