Simply Convivial: Biblical Homemaking, Homeschooling & Mom Life—Without Burnout

Start Organize October: simplyconvivial.com/october - Choosing a planner doesn’t have to waste your time. Should you go digital, paper, or both? In this episode of Simply Convivial, I walk through the pros and cons of each option—digital planners, paper planners, and combo systems—so you can quickly choose what works best for you and move forward.

We’ll look at:

Why digital planners are convenient, searchable, and shareable—but also distracting.
Why paper planners engage your brain differently and help you remember more—but can get messy fast.
How a combo method works best for moms who just need a quick start.

I also share the four essential planner pieces—calendar, weekly dashboard, daily card, and interval plan—and the best way to start using them today.

Don’t overthink it. Your planner only works if you use it. Let’s make a simple choice and get going.
