How I Turned a Planner Into a Printed Journal That Helped Me Survive a Hard Year

This journal and planner was created during one of the hardest years of my life. What began as simple journaling turned into over 120 pages of weekly reflections, monthly check-ins, yearly intentions, and visual collages—proof that even on the hardest days, I kept going.
