We’ve both struggled with our mental health and truly understand the debilitating effect this can have on life. But that’s really not the whole picture! There can be amazing, fantastic and beautiful times between the clouds and fog, too. Because of this, we wanted to create a tool that would help us make the most of these moments. The fact that we are both passionate stationery lovers meant our first product could only be one thing. The Positive Planner was born.

So in May 2017, we took the plunge. We nervously clicked ‘live’ on a crowdfunding campaign that would be the start of our Positive Planner journey. Hundreds of amazing people joined us by pledging in return for a copy of The Positive Planner. We worked tirelessly, juggling our roles as mothers and full-time business owners to collate and create content for The Positive Planner. In the end, it took us just 6 months to self-publish after clicking that ‘live’ button!

Since then our Positive Family has grown from strength to strength. We now have a total of 4 books: The Positive Planner, The Positive Bullet Diary, The Positive Wellness Journal and our new book baby, The Positive Doodle Diary, that’s especially for children. 

Mental health is something that touches each and every one of us in some way. And it’s because of this that we want The Positive Planner Community to become a symbol of solidarity and acceptance for what is still often viewed as a taboo subject. We hope you’ll feel the benefits of being part of the Positive Planner Community too.
