    i have been using a planner and reading about productivity since the 1980s and this is the best setup I have ever seen. The table of contents and tabs on the top and sides are genius.

    I found this video at the perfect time. I'm setting up my new planner for July. I had never considered using a Table of Contents. I also love the idea of having some paper at the front of my planner to quickly write down ideas. I'll definately do that!

    Just found your channel and I am so happy! Your ideas are all ways I have tried to figure out my Happy Planner and how to organize my family's financial situation! Being a one income family is difficult, especially in California, but I can see that your budget book (which I purchased digitally) will be so helpful for my brain to stay sane and focused! I love the idea of a "Table of Contents" and the Inbox... such a great tool to have at the beginning of my planner. Thank you so much!

    I stumble upon your videos from time and time again and I feel like you have a video for every question and every idea I have when it comes to planning! *NEW SUBSCRIBER* I tend to sway towards the Mini Happy Planner because it fits in my bag and I’m curious to know how convenient is it for you to carry around your Big Happy Planner. Do you carry around a bigger bag when you have it? What else planner related do you have with you on a daily basis? I’d love to know! Thanks so much for the videos!

Def checking out more of your videos bc I love your streamlined look. You are the first person who actually focuses on productivity not decorating. While decorating is great being more productive is the main goal. You are wonderful
