Hello! Thank you for visiting my site! 💜

People are drawn to right brain planning for a variety of reasons — so it’s not surprising that there are countless ways to begin and maintain such a practice …

That is why I share content and visual examples from my practice on my [blog], my [Ko-fi] posts, [Instagram] and in the private support communities I host.

The resources and support I offer via Right Brain Planner® are the result of a lifetime of experience and curiosity, along with a trial-and-error creative practice.

During the past two years I have been focused on the backstory of my right brain planning, seeing the details from new perspectives.

I have also been more compassionate with myself.

  • The principles of mindful self-compassion paired with my right brain planning practice have proven to be uniquely healing and clarifying.
  • Reading this book was life-changing for me! ♥

My life experience and work (paid and unpaid) as a community advocate and counselor/consultant continually facilitate my creative practice and sense of self.

Planning (and its assorted, traditional formats) was always something I resisted.

As early as my high school years, I knew was a right brain planner.

That is when I altered my first a dated planner. 🙂

  • I adapted (and/or collaged over) planner pages that included tasks or language that didn’t resonate.
  • I inserted my own photographs and art, along with pages for doodles and miscellaneous collections of task lists and reminders.
  • I also altered hardcover books as “planners” — incorporating pages from planners to accommodate dated and timed appointments.

Eventually (in 2012), I created my own templates to merge journaling (expression) with planning (chronicled information + a dated continuum).

  • My intention for Right Brain Planner® is to offer ideas, resources and practical ways that foster a unique creative practice (in baby steps).
  • Your practice will develop over time as you discover what is most appealing and useful for you. — and it might take some time.
    • Slow is fast enough.

Right brain planning prioritizes creating space for what has your attention — what matters most to you (and why).

  • Right brain planning is stepping behind the proverbial curtain of what you are living and experiencing in order to compassionately hold space with yourself (and what you are feeling, thinking and perceiving).
  • Doing so to unlock what fuels your passions and fears, joy and anger, and all the many other emotions, challenges, responses and urges we each coexist with each day.

Right brain planning is an opportunity to allow your journal to be your “planner” — elevating expression and desires over expectations and shoulds.

Use the template pages included in Right Brain Planner® resources to creatively document how you are checking-in with yourself daily, weekly and/or monthly.
