I love this. And I too started with the Common Planner at the beginning of the year but I realized I missed my hobonichi. I thought I would want the pages undated but for me I need the dated pages. So I picked up the hobonichi Spring and I am now at planner bliss. Back in my fav planner. I hope your year in the hobonichi will go well.

What is the ink on #2?! It's so pretty

I was so happy when I saw a new video from you :) This looks great! Thinking the A5 Common Planner might work best for you. I love mine. Your penmanship is the best.

I call your leather planner (shown on the short video) as "personnal organizer". I like this model with pen.

Love the Sterling inks Nn1 & N2 sizes, taking away the quote and the pages going to the edge of the notebook makes such a huge difference in terms of functional space! Using my hobo weeks as more of a checklist/mental health working great. My NI (standard TN) is more of a work focused planner with meeting notes, continuing education notes, etc. never thought a TN would be good for me but it’s perfect

Love your setup with the separate notebooks. Is your day per page book also Sterling Ink?

I love your videos, your handwriting, your reading planner, pretty much everything 🤣 I was thinking of a B6 for next year but now I'm thinking I might miss the A5 size. Did you think about the A5 Common Planner?

14:32 Just FYI. It’s bigger than the sneaker weeks but not the non-sneaker version. It’s the same size as the other weeks planners.

My main planner is a W222 A5 all in one. But I use it similarly on the dailies to your standard and love it. I have a standard EDC right now and use a Stalogy for my dailies paired with a monthly from SI and love that too. Your bujoplanner cover is gorgeous. I have the same in pocket size. 💗

I like your reading goals. I read a few of Toni Morrison books many many years ago. I am so grateful to have read her books when I was young and just starting adulthood. I never thought to read August Wilson but I did get to see a few of his plays. I do not read a lot but I also read Real Self Care and found it soothing and logical and realistic. Thank you very much for sharing your process and reasoning. It’s very helpful. You have a very lovely setup

Just google what day of the year is today? That’s how I deal with the 365 page. Enjoyed your set up.

You and I read the same way! I've always read multiple books at the same time - usually 5-10. During Covid, I read 201 books that year but now I'm around 75-100.

I'm trying to let go of my mistakes too...I think our mistakes make the journal more "personal"/"real". Sometimes messy like life, but we move on. 🥰

This is the color I am interested in. I have never had a weeks before. Can you tell me if the cover is more like paper or cardstock or is it a hardback?

Such a cute birthday picture! Love watching your process!

Sterling ink has now come out with monthly booklets in different sizes. So far the B6 is working well for me. I’m thinking that maybe a small monthly calendar for on the go and the B6 would be a great combo for 2025

Absolutely loved your set up and style! Can’t wait to enjoy more videos from your channel. 🎉

I set up all my monthlies in all my planners ahead of time too at the beginning of the year. It allows me to write plans directly in them when they are scheduled and color code them to the minimal deco I have on the monthlies too. It’s an amazing benefit imho.

Cool. I love it

I am so happy to see you using a Hobonichi weeks again😁🥳 i also use the my 100 for movies and I watched 91 including cartoons and reality shows😆 I aggree with having the trackers in your edc. I ended up putting all mine in the weeks for same reason. Thanks for sharing, Rachel! Love your videos🥰

What a great setup! I love all of the trackers you've included and how it's bujo-adjacent but without the added pressure of making it look fancy. I actually am using my first Hobonichi planner this year as well, and I have the same weeks mega that you do! I was so excited when I ordered it in October at a clearanced price, and saw that I could start using it during the week of Thanksgiving; it was the perfect way to get used to the layout and try different spreads on the blank notes pages. I'm looking forward to your other setup videos!

i love this set up rachel!!!! wish we were going to the same conference in march 😭

Crazy! We watched 75 movies in 2023 also. Great set up! Thanks for sharing. 😀

Here for travelers co notebooks and inserts planning.... 🥰

Gorgeous!

Beautiful pages ❤

Love everything about this! ❤ Are the washi in your monthlies from washi tape shop too?

Great ideas and I’m glad I found your channel. I’ll be watching for the next reading journal video. ❤

Where did you get the book washi? The one on the Stephen King quote page. Its gorgeous!

Thank you for sharing your system and thoughts on it. I love the idea of a “didn’t finish” list and I will be adding it to my reading journal setup for 2024. This will be the first year I’ve kept a reading journal and I’m hoping it will help keep me accountable to myself as I’ve been wanting to jumpstart my old love of reading both for fun and growth instead of relying on the Internet and articles as you mentioned. Hope your reading journey in 2024 goes well!

love it!!! still debating on whether or not i set up (yet another) reading journal this year LOL

Grid notebooks became my best friends since i figured out how to bujo in them (future log, projects, and before each month : the monthly spread, and all the weeklies fir this month after , and that's it, then whatever i need to write). I might use the printables for the monthlies and weeklies this year, which i might glue inside. It's very convenient, i don't depend on anybody, and i have all the paper i need for the rapid logging and notes, and whatever i need to write.

ahhh loved the video! Can't wait for the video on how you use your work planner! 😍😍😍

Love it! Jealous, sounds like you’ve figured it out! Need to get there. 😊 great video, thanks for sharing! Love the TRC Brass Pen!! 😉

Cheers to Utah, for banning book bans!!!

As I'm contemplating how I'm going to set up my 2024 B6 Common Planner, I'm so glad I stumbled on your video. Lots of great ideas! I also bought the passport size with no idea why. It's soooo tiny. lol I know this is from 3 mos ago, but I'd like to say thanks for sharing your set up.

Loved this video and the functional planning. Always looking for inspo to find a good balance between planning for a busy life and injecting some creativity. Congrats on your PhD! 🎉

Cara Rachel, ti seguo dall'italia da un po ' di tempo e voglio dirti che ti adoro. Condivido sempre ogni tua espressione, utilizzando agende e diari da sempre. Devi sapere che ho 55 anni. E che da te imparo sempre e mi confronto. Nonostante l'eterno conflitto dell'agenda unica.....che non è possibile se sei un pianificatore compulsivo, e la pagina già compilata, ritengo i tuoi video sempre riflessivi , ben consapevoli e pieni di spunti. Io da anni utilizzo l'hobbonici a 5 (anche diario), la weeks e un notes b6 (che io chiamo diario spazzatura.....che invece è quello che mi porto dietro per annotare tutto....es. trek, viaggi,note dei libri ecc.= bujo) Quando non mi è possibile portare con me tutto l'armamentario.....quest'anno grazie a te sperimentero' la common planner ma solo per ob. per la cura personale che a oggi, nella mia vita necessitano di uno spazio tutto loro. La tua caratteristica che apprezzo di più è lo sperimentare. Inoltre nei tuoi video parli veloce e non mi addormento e il decoro (che mi piace ma non ho tempo) ha uno spazio relativo......e tutto sto problema per il recupero della memoria e gli spazi vuoti????? Ma chissenefrega! Pianificare è solo un mezzo per essere più consapevoli del presente. Tu mi aiuti in tutto ciò. Ti ringrazio giovane y.t. Apprendo ora che hai un bimbo. Un abbraccio a tutti e due!❤

Penny Post is great! The last time I went was for the travelers stamps that were touring. It’s a bit of a trek for me (45 minute metro), so I don’t go as much as I’d like. For better or worse, I’m way too close to Jenni Bick in Dupont Circle (DC).

Thanks for this video!! I want to try bullet journaling in a TN but I'm scared of how fast I'll go through inserts....

❤

New sub. Thank you loved your video. 😊

Mine comes today. What pen do you use in yours?

Notebook setup/overview starts at 8:00

I feel like we have a similar planner lineup. I’d rather have my memory keeping separate because I know next year I won’t care that I cleaned out the closet or washed my car - the planner part. I will only care about the memories. Currently I am memory keeping in the back of my Hobonichi Avec and will stick with this until 2024, and then I will have a separate notebook for family memory keeping. I really like how the lady from My Abiding Journal does a monthly recap for her memory keeping. For 2024, I’m switching from the Avec to a Wonderland222 A5 All-In-One planner. I am tired of the Hobonichi quotes. In August, I started a separate journal because I'm using the Avec journaling pages for memory keeping. Again, I doubt I’ll care what I was doing in my planner. I will use the back pages of the Wonderland222 for taking notes of my day so if I don’t have time to memory keep or journal, I can refer to my notes. I also have an A5 five year Hobonichi. I refer to my notes to fill this out about once a week.

Loved seeing your planners. I got some great ideas to incorporate into my planner(s)/collections. I LOVE your family TN. Your son is such a cutie pie!!!

thanks for sharing! I was looking into the curidas and appreciated your thoughts on it :)

How wide are the columns in the weekly spread?

I m watching on my phone. The colour looks dark brown on this. 🤷‍♀️

Love to see your beautiful planners❤ i am the biggest fan of your handwriting too💕 i am always thinking about new things to try out😆 but when I think it through I always go back to same😬 then the new experiments come as journals that i don’t commit as much but I still get to play and sense how it is🤣 so, I will keep using same (hobonichi weeks and tns) next year, but probably will have a ton on the background just for fun😇
