I have a confession to make: I saw your planner online a couple of years ago and decided to cheaply make one for myself. I have a graphic design background, so I designed some pages and 1/2 pages and put them in a notebook … and it was all a colossal, poorly made flop. So, I got an old iPad just to use a digital planner app, but my brain needs to see my month and my week and my day and my to-do list all at once, period, so those efforts also failed. I literally have been keeping my very complica...

I love this planner. This is my 3rd year ordering. I use it every day, for personal and work. I throw it in and out of my car throughout the day. It is made of great stock - very sturdy and durable. The format is perfect for me. I love that the full month is always visible with the weekly, that there’s space for notes. The extra pages in the back are great, although I do wish there were more. The monthly tabs stay strong the whole year, they don’t wear or tear off. It’s worth the price. The best...

I got the mini project planner inserts to add to my regular size Laurel Denise planner. As an event coordinator for a new venue and a 2026 bride, I felt that this size would be perfect so I can keep my budget my wedding to do my work and all other things easily visible. I also purchase the large size to see which one I would like best, but I highly recommend if you’re a visual person to have the minis so you can see everything in one place without having to turn a page. I use each section for a ...

I had been waiting to try out this planner and it has been so great. It’s been a bit of a transition going from a smaller B6 Aura Estelle to this quite larger planner. It also takes time to get used to writing in the monthly section, as it has less paper behind it; it can feel awkward at times. I also have to get used to writing with a coil again, so anything on Wednesdays (being right handed) is funky. LOL I love the monthly view with my weekly view; I hated writing things twice before. I use t...

I can’t wait for July so I can start using this planner. It’s a collab with Laurel Denise and Amanda from Amanda’s Favorites on YouTube. It’s the perfect planner if you don’t need to see the months at the same time as the weeks. It’s a simple design but allows you to use that space in endless ways. The only thing I would change would be to put light lines, light graph or light dot grid in the weekly list space and in the monthly day boxes, but that doesn’t dock it any stars. This planner is goin...

As an ADHD adult, I’ve tried a lot of organization/planning systems in my life, with varying levels of success, usually dropping them within 3-6 months. Nothing has worked for me long-term, but I bought this and I have a really good feeling about its staying power. One of my biggest gripes with planners was having to constantly flip through pages to find what I needed, and if you don’t know, ADHDers tend to struggle with object permanence so if it’s out of sight, it’s out of mind. Bills were a c...

As someone who juggles running multiple businesses, managing projects, and planning new launches, I’ve tested my fair share of planners. But the Laurel Denise Planner has been a total game-changer. Why It Works for Me 1. The Unique Layout = Ultimate Visibility Unlike traditional planners where you have to flip back and forth to see everything, this planner lays out the month and week on one spread. That means I can see my big-picture goals (project deadlines, meetings, content planning) while ...

I have been loving my new planner so far! I like the full 2025 calendar in the front (and 2026 in the back) so I can quickly indicate when I'll be in/out of office and some key deadlines I need to work around. As for the weekly/monthly planner pages, I LOVE that I can see the whole month and monthly to-do lists! My job has a lot of long tasks, so being able to put them in the monthly to-do list section is nice, and then the weekly section can be broken down into smaller, more manageable pieces...

Now that I've had it for a month, I thought it was time for a proper review. I love this planner! I got the portrait planner to combine the 3 different planners and notepads that I had been using. I need something undated that doesn't have a bunch of weekly pages that I won't always fill, otherwise I abandon planners. Doesn't matter if they cost $5 or $75, I can't commit to that kind of consistency. I also need to be able to fit 3 separate workloads into one space. Not only am I balancing work a...

I've been using planners since my senior year of high school back in 2010. I went from Target planners to Erin Condren. I've stuck with Erin Condren since 2013 because the quality of their paper and the ability to customize your covers. HOWEVER, as I grew in my career, Erin Condren planners weren't working for me anymore because it felt like a college student planner, but I continued to buy because it was so hard to let go. After doing so much research, Laurel Denise came up and the "Project Pl...
