What's the Secret to Planning that Works?

CONNECTION
Share the journey with kind, friendly like-minded business owners who know what it's like to be where you're at.
Planning the Joy First Way.
Planning the Joy First Way.
If you're ready to put happiness over hustle, but find it difficult to do that day-to-day because life and business throw so many curve balls at you... You're going to love this.
The Joy First Planner and Planning circle are your anchor in a stormy sea. Built on over a decade of testing planning and productivity systems, planners, hacks and habits, the coaching and tools we use here are the ones that work.
This program has been an absolute game-changer for me! As a small business owner working hands-on 5-7 days a week, I often find it hard to stay consistent with my marketing efforts. This program helped me establish consistent habits, something I had always struggled with. I am in the middle of rebranding in the Super Bloom program as well so things are starting to move and align very quickly for me!
What I love most is the ability to replay the coaching calls. With my busy schedule, being able to catch up at my own pace has been crucial. I highly recommend this program to anyone looking to take their business to the next level without feeling overwhelmed!

What Makes This Experience Special?
What Makes This Experience Special?
JOY FIRST
JOY FIRST
All of our practical strategies, techniques, planning rituals and even our printed planners are rooted in our joy first philosophy: helping you step out of decision-making based on fear and scarcity, and into a world where you’re choosing and operating from a place of expansiveness, abundance and joy (trust me when I say, in 20 yrs this is one of the most underrated productivity hacks, and I’ve seen work wonders!! This is one of the big reasons we love operating this as a group experience, connection = joy.
YOU DON'T HAVE TO WAIT FOR JANUARY
YOU DON'T HAVE TO WAIT FOR JANUARY
You don’t have to wait for next January. Our planners don’t have dates, so you can jump in anytime and benefit from this planner, and the support, accountability and connection of our monthly, quarterly or annual live planning and review calls straight away. When you jump in we'll encourage you to set your first 90 day themed 'sprint' and off you go!
FREEDOM TO DO IT YOUR WAY
FREEDOM TO DO IT YOUR WAY
We operate this program with a ‘take what you like, leave the rest’ policy: this is not a course with an end-date, we don’t take attendance, there is no content to consume and no homework to do. In this program there is no ‘getting behind’. This is simply a safe container, a set of well-tested tools, and some powerful coaching to help you find and keep focus on what matters to YOU.

I love the planner! The year-at-a-glance calendar with dates and ones with space to write out plans. I love the pages that list the months with lines below. I've been using that to write down my sessions/sales for each month.
I love the planning calls. Setting these goals at the start of the year has really helped me stay specific with my focus. Check in monthly on the calls has helped me see all the progress I have made and the work I'm putting in. I've accomplished so many things this year that I have had on my to do list for a while. The accountability has been awesome!
