✦ Skinny Bag Chronicles: Day 1

The Planner Is Our Secret Weapon


Let’s be real. A planner isn’t just about writing down appointments. It’s about making space for the woman you’re becoming — the one you choose to be every single day.


When I map out my meals, shopping lists, workouts, and even my self-care to-dos, it’s proof that I’m living with structure, not just drifting back into old habits.


I’m squirrel-brained at times (Type A with a whole lot of brain-B chaos). But when it’s on paper — sometimes even hourly — everything feels more intentional.


And that’s the real point: femininity is not just looks.

It’s:


✦ grace > gossip

✦ joy > overwork

✦ awareness > autopilot

✦ fun > alcohol

✦ presence > pressure


My planner keeps me aligned. It’s not just paper — it’s my accountability partner, my mirror, my little cheerleader.


Oh, and today I got to write down something BIG for next week: a major collab.


A reminder that…


IF YOU NEVER GIVE UP,


YOU’LL NEVER FAIL.

My Planner Tip

I use a simple daily planner to map this out (because seeing it on paper is a game changer).


Mine’s from Office Depot, but it’s even cheaper on Amazon → shop my planners here.


If you’re on a budget, even Dollar Tree has some really cute ones.
