I’m not sure if this tip is a true”hack” or if it’s just a really clever way to jump start your new year’s planner, but here goes… This tip actually came from an unusual source, a book called The Scent of Lemon & Rosemary by Raechel Henderson, about caring for your home using earth magic.…

A Deep Dive into All-In-One Planners
Our final planner category is all-in-one planners (see our previous posts on Ringbound, Discbound, and Elastic Bound)– these are bound books with hardcover, softcover or spiral binding that feature some combination of calendars and other features for planning.

Another Effin’ Planner: Effin’ Birds 2023 Monthly/Weekly Planner Calendar
