Organize Your Life

In Episode 4 of Almost Every Month Podcast, our guest is Yena from Moonlit Planning (@moonlitplanning). Yena talks about the perfect layout and discusses with me all of her tools and tricks for organizing her life with her planner. I spend some time outlining the pros and cons of digital versus paper planning, and provide my best advice to newbies just entering the realm of planning. Plus, I Google the difference between a journal and a diary, and give you a special Hobonichi entry translation just for 4/20 day! If your life could use a bit of organization, I provide some of the inspiration you will need to get started and keep going in this episode!

In his Whiskered Scribe segment, Mike Quest (IG: mikequestst) faces another side to the conundrum of using paper--that planning perfectionism that prevents us from starting to use a new journal or planner because it is too precious and we don't want to wreck it! 

Welcome to Almost Every Month--(Hobo maitsuki no poddokyasuto)--A podcast about all things ephemera—journals, planners, pens, paper, ink and more. In this first series, I delve deeply into the wildly popular Hobonichi planners and all the culture that surrounds them—from the storied history of its founder Shigesato Itoi to the cottage industries and influencers that have sprung up around it. Special guests from the planner, pen and journal world will make appearances in each episode. The name Almost Every Month was chosen as a play on the meaning of Hobonichi (the 'almost every day' blog)
