Pro-Tip:
If you’re going to buy planners, get the undated kind.
That way, when you forget about them for a year and circle back, they’re still usable.

💬 How We Talk Around Here
You’ll see words like soft, steady, and spiky throughout the site.
They’re not official clinical terms—they’re just the way we check in with ourselves.
🌸 Soft Categories are for the days when everything feels a little raw. These are warm, gentle, and low-pressure.
🌿 Steady Categories are for when you’re coasting, curious, or just checking in. Think of these as friendly nudges.
🧨 Spiky Categories are for when you’re ready to dig deep or shake loose something that’s been stuck. They can be intense, but they come from a place of self-trust.
You get to pick what fits. Some days we need a whisper. Some days we need a spark.
