Great video! I love long videos that include process and chatting! Also sending supportive vibes…I left my full-time job in higher ed fundraising in March of 2023. I was burned out after 30+ years. Since then I am working part-time and doing my jam business on the side. It’s been a great change for me…I know your career change will be great for you! You go girl! ❤️
No way!! I have a few friends in Advancement work and my gosh I don’t know how they do it 😂 congrats on your shift, my goodness you must feel so much better! I am already remembering to breathe and slow down, and it’s AMAZING!
Thank you for posting this, and for always being real. I deal with many of your same challenges, and this was SO HELPFUL for me personally. I love your unedited videos! ❤
As a 46-y.o. Mom of a 9-y.o. I totally understand that feeling. I’ve learned to find my fellow “old moms” to connect with, which helps so much. But that comparison sneaks up so easily still. Sounds like you have a very healthy attitude and mindfulness about it all. But I totally understand- being postpartum then perimenopausal is no joke! Cheers to taking care of ourselves. Oh and PS, Tiny Habits is another great book similar to Atomic Habits. 💞
Sometimes you might feel that way about yourself but others might not judge you so harshly and then there are judgy people that we just can’t change. I had my first baby at 32 and my last at 38. (3 total). Starting to take care of yourself is so important. I am glad that it is so much more in focus (trend). I’ve always felt greedy if I did things for myself - even in semi-retirement feel guilty. Trying to get out of that mindset…
Thank you for posting this! I also appreciated the transparency moment that was included. I’m glad you decided to go through with posting 😊 can’t wait to see what else you do with this planner!
Thanks for the encouragement, friend ♥️ sticking with it!! I already have week two up here on my channel and will definitely post weekly through June at least!
I love all your videos. Long, short medium I am here for it. You have taught me so much to appreciate my authenticity and genuineness. Just do your thing how you want to do it and what’s easiest for you. I love the idea of keeping The stickerbook with you for the week. Genius 🤯
Thank you for the health/ wellness “rant” I needed to hear that today! Been down on myself for almost the same as you…🥰 just do it, don’t give up and thanks for being you.
Love your videos of you working through your thought processes. I'm struggling on setting up a wellness planner myself....really trying to get healthy habits started. I'm tracking supplements, skincare, water intake, workout/movement. I totally get the comparison game...dealt with it my entire adult life! Keep going! One day at a time!❤
Loved this! Refreshing to watch someone on YT go thru their thought process in this unedited format vs a perfectly curated planning sesh. Just subscribed & look forward to seeing more LD content from you!
Categories for tracker…how about Quiet Time? I grew up calling my daily reading, prayer, meditation….all together summed up by Quite Time. Blank space could be a gratitude, that could help you be mindful of your blessings and help the focus. Also I appreciate your truth and women in the faith need to know the imperfections are universal. You are doing great. Count the wins, not the losses. Motto being, Do the next best thing. You got this.
You are smart, educated, and have accomplished much, it’s ok to be good to yourself- journaling is helping me and planning - I’m anxious to see if this layout is helpful to you!
Such a great video! Thank you for your processing. It’s so helpful in so many ways!! I never thought about using this planner this way. I always liked it but never knew how it could fit into my planner lineup. Btw love this video change NOTHING about how you approach your videos. They are so refreshingly unique.
Yes girl!! I will indeed- I’ve been using it this month to get a feel for what will work for me, and I’ll post a video later this month with review and set up for next month!!
I prefer holiday stickers that I can add when and where I want and since you’re predating, I would have switched to a Mon start - but I could function in either
I love plan with me videos, I also like tracking the weather. Because we live in the Gulf Coast area, humidity and high/low pressure impact how we feel, what part of Texas are you in?
Loved this video! I was so happy when I saw that you posted a long one 😄 I really like unedited videos. I usually plan while I watch so it's perfect. Also, thank you so much for sharing your feelings about comparing yourself to others. ❤ I struggle with that a lot.
Chatty - yes yes yes. I like listening to the process because sometimes I use videos as more audios when I’m doing something tedious. They pick me up. You have spent your adult life accomplishing a successful double career, family, and touching so many lives online. Now, you are giving up your outside career to devote your life to your husband and daughter. These other women may or may not do anything except pamper themselves, spend money on clothes, or put their children in daycare every day so they can concentrate just on themselves. You will never know. Your goals are admirable and they are YOUR GOALS FOR YOU. 14 years ago, at the age of 60, I lost 60 pounds - FOR ME. You can accomplish whatever goals you determine are the best for you. This is my long-winded way of saying you do you. Ignore other people, because they do not live your life. You are a highlight in the days of many many people. And you might never know the lives you touch or encourage. ❤️❤️❤️
I love both types of videos. I love that you are chatty. Gives a chance to get to know you better. Have you ever thought of starting a Patreon account. I would so subscribe immediately.
1:07:08 u would be surprised how unhappy they probably are. ..but that would probably be me though. Lol I'm 42 and no kids but i do want one, and I'm unmarried so think there are people that would like to have what u have God has blessed you in the way you needed to be, what u prayed for...half then women need therapy
It is so important to remember that we all have our joys and sorrows- seen and unseen. I don’t know their journeys, so it’s best to focus on what God has for me and my life.
Yes to the long unedited videos! ❤
Thank you!! Noted!!
I absolutely looooooove long planner videos!!!!!!

Aw I’m so glad this was helpful Nancy ♥️
I agree with you on the monthly holidays! I do like her undated mini for this reason! It makes for a nice canvas to customize
Yes! It’s one of my fav elements of the undated!

Aw wow thanks Karmen, appreciate the encouragement!
This is great, it's helped me focus on a wellness setup too 😀📒
Oh I'm so glad to hear it!
Yes, the uniball signo white ink is the absolute best! Somehow it doesn’t get as much love
it’s THE BEST!
I love it. Will you be doing any videos with the LD Portrait planner. I bought one and I need ideas to get started. LOL!
Yes girl!! I will indeed- I’ve been using it this month to get a feel for what will work for me, and I’ll post a video later this month with review and set up for next month!!
@@thejoyfulsojourn sounds good. I’m so proud of everything you’re doing. Can’t wait to see what else you’re up to. Miss ya!!
I prefer holiday stickers that I can add when and where I want and since you’re predating, I would have switched to a Mon start - but I could function in either
agreed!
I love plan with me videos, I also like tracking the weather. Because we live in the Gulf Coast area, humidity and high/low pressure impact how we feel, what part of Texas are you in?
Central! Austin
@@thejoyfulsojourn I love Austin! Last time we were there we went to see Santana
Loved this video! I was so happy when I saw that you posted a long one 😄 I really like unedited videos. I usually plan while I watch so it's perfect.
Also, thank you so much for sharing your feelings about comparing yourself to others. ❤ I struggle with that a lot.
Thank you for the feedback , and I’m so glad that Im not alone- comparison is universal but I hope we can do it less and less ♥️

Kim, I have and…I’ll just say, stay tuned ♥️
I love the long videos, and all the real raw. And you changed the name to Joyful Sojourn... not the Momentary Emotional High Snippet 😉
