This journal provides you with 100 opportunities to check in with yourself. Each day you journal, you'll be prompted to write down something(s) that you are proud of, something(s) that you are grateful for, an area you want to work on and a letter directly to yourself. Focusing on these areas is going to help you shift out of auto-pilot mode and back into the drivers seat of your thoughts.

Proud of... Growing up we are constantly showered with words of praise and affirmation as we meet various milestones, learn new skills and go to school. But as you age into adulthood there are very few opportunities for someone to tell you they're proud of you.

Grateful for... Life is full of darkness, and sometimes it can feel like that's all that is there. Taking time to acknowledge some of the good things in life can shift your mindset, even if its just for a moment.

Dear Me... Try to imagine a good friend coming to you with all of the same problems that you have. What would you say to that friend to comfort them? Do you have any advice to share or is now a time to fully acknowledge their feelings? Write those things down for yourself.

Working on... Inevitably, after all the other prompts are filled in, there will be something that stands out as needing your focus and attention. Call this area out as something you'd like to work on and your brain will begin to find opportunities for you to practice.

Your planner cover will be created with precision and care to make sure every letter is perfectly placed.

This listing is for physical, printed coil bound planner. It is predesigned and not customizable. If you would like to create your own custom coil planner, check out my Custom Coil Upgrade page!

If you would like to purchase this planner unpunched or punched for rings, please leave a note at checkout.

Coils are constructed of nylon coated steel & aluminum, making them sturdier, stronger and heavier than plastic coils. Covers are protected with a crystal-clear photo quality 10mm laminate cover.

All planners are cut, punched and bound by hand with love. This means binding and holes may not align exactly from one page to the next. You will not notice such small variance once pages are placed on your coil.

Ready, Set, Journal!

I am new to journaling and was inspired to start because of Bess' presentation about Go Wild 2024! I had NO idea what to pick and Alessa was SO helpful. She answered all of my questions with expertise. The journal arrived much earlier than expected, was packaged well and arrived in excellent condition. I really love the look of the journal and the quality of the paper. I'm inspired by the headings and know they will serve as a way to guide my thoughts. The black and white makes me feel great - as if my words and images will add some color (figuratively and literally). I caught the journal on sale but I think even at regular price, this is truly an investment in my mental health.
