When I first created the Thriving in Motherhood Planner, I was deep in survival mode, barely keeping up and looking for something that made life feel more doable. Over the years, it’s become so much more than a planner.

It’s a tool that grows with me. The fact is, no one stays in one place for long. We all move through seasons, sometimes thriving, sometimes surviving, and our planning needs change with them.

In this week’s episode, I’m walking through what it looks like to use your planner along the five-step path from surviving to thriving and how it adapts to whatever season you’re in.

Here’s a peak inside:

• Surviving: When life feels heavy and unpredictable, the planner helps you focus on what’s actually true, not just what your brain is telling you.

• Reentry: As you start to get back on your feet, I’ll show you how to brain dump, sort through the chaos, and gently find your footing again.

• Normalizing: This is where you rebuild your rhythms. Learn how to use your weekly pages and routines to create structure that supports you, not stresses you.

• Exploring: When you finally have a little breathing room, it’s time to experiment. Test ideas, track habits, and see what works (and what doesn’t).

• Thriving: Here’s where the magic happens. You’ll see how the planner helps you build systems that bring joy, peace, and momentum (without perfection).

The Thriving in Motherhood Planner was never about doing more. It’s about building a life that fits who you are and what matters most, one small, intentional step at a time.
