Planning Creator Spotlight – Learn About Sara’s Planner

I hate to be the first one in the Planning Creator Spotlight Series but I am an aspiring Planning Content Creator LOL.

Welcome to the first installment of the Planning Creator Spotlight Series! Each post in this series will dive deep into the world of planning content creators, exploring the planners they love, their unique journeys, and the inspiration behind their work. To kick things off, we’re starting with someone who’s been dabbling in the world of planners and content creation—me!

Yes, I hate to be the one to break the ice, but as an aspiring planning content creator myself (with plenty of room for growth, LOL), I couldn’t resist giving you a peek into my own planner preferences and the creative process that fuels my planning passion. So, let’s get started, and let me share my journey with you!
