Hey folks!
Most of you don’t know at the time of this writing that I’m going to nursing school fulltime right now…in French. Do I like torturing myself? I guess so.
For the last 9 months of school, I carried around two planners: one for school and another to organize all the stuff I needed to do at home. I’m old school - I need the pen-to-paper-to-brain connection in order to remember anything. (Side note: I also tried typing my notes and using a digital planner, but I never remember what I type, and worse, I cannot stand the sound of keys tapping. Thanks, sound processing disorder.)
The other issue I have with weekly planners is the fact that there aren’t enough pages for notes. I need space for my ideas. I run through the notes section at the back of regular planners in the first weeks of the new year and I’m tired of carrying around extra notebooks.
Not anymore, homie.
I created a 6-month perpetual weekly planner with weekly notes (you heard me—weekly notes), and I am psyched to share it with you!
Here are the top 6 things that make my 6-month perpetual planner with weekly notes different than the majority of planners out there:
It’s perpetual. No more wasted paper. If you want to plan 5 days this week and then two days a week from now, be my guest! Also, your “weekend” might not be Saturday and Sunday (where there is traditionally less space given to write things down).
There’s a daily header to start each week (like I mentioned above)
It has columns so you can track two things at once (you can easily draw in your own in a traditional planner, obviously. I used to do it, hahahah)
Yes, it has a to-do list, a notes section on the side, and 5 habits you can customize (habit trackers typically make me feel like crap, unless I’m choosing what I track), but it also has a blank list you can customize. Need to put together a packing list for a trip? Grocery list? List of people to call this week? It’s flexible.
Of course, most importantly, there are two extra pages of notes. Per week. This is a game changer for me. This is where I meal prep, plan, doodle, design, think out loud, budget, etc.
Some of you might remember I published a book about transitioning to zero waste in 2018, so I’m conscious about waste. You can find that book here. One thing I love about this planner is that because it’s perpetual, you’re not wasting weeks of pages if you go on vacation or misplace your planner. The other thing is that it doesn’t have the spiral binding and extra plastic. It’s just paperbound. Also in hardcover so you have a sturdy surface to write on. Technically that would be #7.
Check out the video above and some sweet AI-generated pictures below (because that kind of budget? In this economy?). All of them are available in softcover and hardcover except the red version. That one is available in hardcover only. Feel free to pin away! I have these floating around Pinterest where I can. :)
Who is this product for?
Anyone who likes using a planner: my neurodivergent folks who like clean spaces without lots of overwhelm; my busy moms; my fellow nursing students; students in general; teens; business professionals…you name it.
Happy planning, my friends!
Let me know which one you purchased and how it’s working out for you.

Also, if you have or know kids over the age of 8, stay posted. I’m releasing two budget planners: Capital Kids: Budget Planner for kids 8+, and Capital Teens: Budget Planner for teens 14+. They each contain a monthly page for tracking debits and credits, introducing the language of finance to them in an age-appropriate way, something many of us didn’t learn as kids.
