Description
When you open the planner, you’ll find
the What I want page
This is the space to dream big and identify the characteristics you want to describe your life.
Eating well, managing your finances, managing your kitchen? These things apply!
Next, you’ll find a section to build on your strengths.
What’s Going Well & My Strengths
New for 2025, this 2-page spread is all about building on what you’re doing well. Not only does this build confidence, but it also helps you see how you can leverage the positive in your life to get closer to your ideal future.
Then we look at where to grow…
Priorities for the Year
On the Priorities for the Year page, you’ll identify which things from your overall vision to focus on during the year.
Maybe you want to lower your cholesterol or reduce your debt. What you do in the kitchen applies here, too!
Moving through the planner, you’ll find
Goals or Systems to Develop
On the page marked “Goals or Systems to Develop” you’ll have space to articulate what goals and systems you can develop to make your life more like the one you dream about.
Those systems might include:
- Creating a weekly meal plan template.
- Developing a weekly meal prep habit.
- Establishing a way to deal with leftovers so that you waste less food.
- Growing as a home cook by cooking through all those cookbooks you’ve been collecting.
These intro pages can be developed as the year — and your dreams — grow. Each month, you’ll have several pages to help you walk these out.

The Month’s Priorities at a Glance
Each month, you can chip away at those yearly goals by laying out specific steps to take during the coming weeks.
If improving your diet for health reasons is on the list, then what specific things can you do this month to help you further the cause? Research suggests that writing these things down will make you more likely to do them.
Priorities you might articulate for the month include:
- track water drank every day – get in 8 glasses
- shop the kitchen first – save money on groceries
- pack lunch every day to save on take-out
- start brewing tea and coffee instead of drinking soda
Monthly Calendar Pages
Each month’s calendar page will help you see the time you have to work with and to plan accordingly.
If you don’t plan to make things happen, they likely won’t.
Weekly To-Do’s and Meal Plan
The weekly to-do page allows you to grab tasks from your monthly list to place on the weekly list. Then each day pull a few from the weekly list to work on.
You’ll also have your week’s meal plan right there.
You can see at a glance what to do over the course of the week and be able to cherry pick what to do each day.
Pro tip: include your kitchen tasks on your weekly and daily to-do lists. This is how you “make time”. You identify what needs doing and admit there are no kitchen fairies. You have to do the work.
In fact, if you want, you can make the planner act as a kitchen manager:
Use your meal plan to direct your To Do This Week section with all the meal prep tasks you might need to accomplish in order to stick to the meal plan.
Then each day, grab the ones that need doing to put on today’s to-do list. In this way, you can more easily manage your kitchen time and get those meals prepped.
You can even stack and color-code your post-it notes for work, school, kids, and kitchen — and yet it’s all in one place!
The Print & Go Planner covers all the basics: calendars for the week and for the year, daily hour-by-hour schedule for time blocking, daily and weekly to-do lists, monthly goals, and meal planning.
The best part? Just print and go. (Well, it helps to have it bound or slip it into a binder, first.) You don’t have to think about what are the right pages to put in your planner. It’s all figured out for you — and 100s of savvy women have tested it — so you know it will work for YOU.

What folks are saying:
This planner is my favorite I’ve ever bought, it’s done much more to organize my brain than any store bought I’ve tried, so thank you. I will definitely be buying next year! — Amy
I’ve used this planner since it first came out and I’ll never use another as long as this one is an option. It is simple with clean lines and room for everything you need in a planner without it becoming too large or cumbersome to carry around. I can plan meals, track my goals, coordinate my family’s MANY comings and goings all without having 7 calendars or planners. It is, in a word, perfection. — Kristy
