How long have you been using Golden Coil?

I received my first Golden Coil planner a few months ago and have used it ever since!

Have you been able to use Golden Coil to help with your home renovation projects/DIYs?

Yes! I make loads of lists of projects to be done, supplies to buy, and schedule when to do them. I used to write things down on scraps of paper I would find and then misplace them. It’s so nice having it all in one place.

How do you customize Golden Coil to fit your specific needs?'

I am completely obsessed with how customizable this planner is. I included Social Media pages to help me better plan my content. I want to set more goals, so I added a Goals page that has space for yearly, monthly, weekly and daily goals. I even have a Reading page to keep track of all the books I’m reading.

How has Golden Coil helped you in your life?

Keeping me organized for sure, which in turn helps me mentally. I am a very forgetful person, so I have to write things down if I want to get them done. This planner literally gives me a space to write down my weekly schedule of mom duties, to-do lists, meals, journal, budget, etc. Plus, a new little inspirational quote every week! It’s everything I need in one place.

Do you have a favorite page or layout?

If I had to pick a favorite, it would be the weekly layout I chose since it shows me everything I need at a glance (weekly schedule, to-do list, meals, journal) on one page. It seriously makes my life so much easier.

What other hobbies or things do you like to do in your free time?

I love to read, thrift, and practice yoga. Sometimes I’ll combine the three and go thrifting for books and yoga clothes.

Any planning or organization advice for others?

I would say keep your planner out where you will see it every day. I find when I keep it in my bag I forget about it. Having it out will remind you to check in, make lists, and help you stay on track. I also find the more I use the planner the more I have to reference back on when I’m in a slump. I like to see how productive I’ve been, reread a journal entry, even look back at the meals we had one week to help plan for another.

Thank you, Jess, for sharing a little of your Golden Coil experience!
