freedom of choice, dont have to justify anything x

Love your videos! Just wonder how you decided to start the year in April rather than January. Maybe i missed your explanation but just curious

Claire! this is one of the best hobonichi videos i've watched!! You've given me so much more layout formats and ideas to track! I was kind of getting bored of my A6 formatting so I'm switching from the A6 to A5 Cousin Avec. Needed more room too as I've been wanting to reflect a bit more on the daily pages. Def can use the A5 space for polaroids!

Star stamp could be used for tracking too

Claire, do I need to ship you cicada wings?! Is that weird?! Gross? Creepy?

Making it a point not to shop….but I live in Lawrence and also love wonder fair 🤣

I'm in an academic year Common Planner now and its amazing, I'm getting into it ahead in the daily pages for the end of May/June and plan to add an A5 once I run out of the daily pages. My work development schedule is July - May so an academic year planner made sense :)

once again---THE BEST!! I love your flip throughs!!

I am the asker about whimsy 😂 I think weird and whimsy can be interchangeable 😜

what a treat for my sunday morning!!

Started following you on TikTok for your debt journey……staying forever for YOU (and also any schnauzer content would be a bonus because I love them so much 😅)

we have been blessed with another video!!!!!!😭

Hey Claire, hey! I’m new to the hobo fam, but nowhere near new to planning at all. I love your channel- just subscribed! Found you from several planner friends. I have YT & IG too- same handle. Thanks for your vulnerability and keeping it real!

Whoohoo 🎉 there’s just something about the hobonichi cousin! And hobo weeks ❤ I always go back 😂 there is just something. Anyway no shame in the game you don’t have to explain yourself 🫶🫶🫶🫶

Happy Birthday

Love the Sad Southern Rock sticker!

Those SLP’s are awesome, aren’t we 😂

No one should fuss about anyone’s choices - other than their own - goodness knows most of us are hard enough on ourselves!

We all have our do our own journeys - I love the SI B6 as well. It doesn’t mean I don’t like the Hobonichi cousin, but I am preferring the B6 in size at the moment- you don’t need to defend yourself to anyone! Let’s face it just glad there are options now!

Your voice and pace are beautiful!

Been really into journaling lately and your spreads are great! I do journal a little differently but seeing your ideas and pages is really inspirational! Amazing playlist btw definitely love most of those songs <3

I like your video. Where did you get your leather cover? I have been looking for a while. Thank you.

I think it's 100% authentic to create them and not use them! They SO helped me get started in my hobo in Jan. I think for some people they are so helpful to get started. They also provide ideas for days you don't know what to do. You are giving inspiration!

Love the prompts!

Hi Claire. Great video. As someone who used to be in cc debt the best advice I’ve used was paying my card several times a week since interest accrues daily instead of paying on the due date. Keep attacking to kill that interest. When it’s paid off use it as you would your debit card and pay it 100% 3 days after charging on it. (Knowing what you can use from what’s available in your bank acct) Continuing through the month to keep your revolving credit in excellent status. Goodluck!!!! Don’t forget to budget the fun things too. Include that so the temptation of using credit for fun days isn’t there. Everyone needs a rainy day budget ❤ loved your video. I was inspired to do more collaging and will do it on my monthly pages.

I loved seeing these. I too have been bullet journaling since 2016 (mostly in Leuchtturms too - although I now favour the A6 size).

The editing Claire in black & white coming in cracked me up! Love watching your videos & look forward to more. Also glad you’re protecting your peace & having boundaries/only sharing what you want about your debt journey. Happy birthday!

Omg your middle school SLP has the same name as me!!! Even the Spelling!!!! I’ve never met someone with the same spelling as me. That’s awesome.

I use one of my weeks for "home" and it comes with me when my cousin can't. It was a media tracker, then just books, then my finances. I went hard on my finances for about 6 weeks. The spending. I had to track the spending. It was so bad! Ugh. Anyways I got it back on track and now have a few things in that weeks but it's main purpose is still the money part. It's a source of anxiety for me and I couldn't be adding that to my cousin, if that makes sense. I think it's nice you're able to do what you want when you want with planners. Also, i love watching hobonichi cousin content so I'm biased.

I am so freaking excited that you’re back in a cousin. I’m spring starting with you after my January HoboCo just didn’t….work?? Ugh. The first couple months were rough and I had to get rid of it lol I’m SO stealing your monthly ideas! I never know what to do with the monthlies and I’m so excited to try something new! Question, where do you get your magazines that you cut up? Magazines aren’t really much of a thing anymore are they? I haven’t had one in years!

omg i turn 32 on wednesday! we are almost bday twins :)

I just found your channel and love your journaling style. Kudos to you for being open with your consumer debt. I also am dealing with paying off several CC. When my husband passed away in 2016, I did a lot of "retail therapy". I'm trying to pay them off but as a single, retired person it is sometimes difficult due to unexpected expenses. But, I'll keep trudging along Lol.

6:47 wait not to taylor rank you but FEARLESS AS ONE? WHEN DID THAT HAPPEN

allergies and claire back in a hobo - spring core for me.

I love Washi Tape Store washi tape stickers!💕 Which roll did your spring stickers come from?

Filling up the monthly pages is the hardest (':

Can you tell us where the tulip washi is from?

Claire is back, back again! 🎉

This is my first year in full year cousin - I love it! But thinking pairing the cousin avec with A5 notebook for September journal season…….Anyone else have this system?

So happy to see you come back Claire. I love watching your videos and I love listening to you. I love your journalling style. I have fallen off the journalling wagon and I’m having a hard time getting back to it. So watching your videos inspires me. Thank you so much for taking the time to make them. I read your book on getting out of debt and loved it so much I couldn’t put it down. You really have a gift for writing.

You will never hear a negative comment from me about you being back in a cousin! A literal dream! Haha welcome back and as always thanks for the inspiration 🫶🏻

Welcome back!! Oh, I love a good list... and I love your excitement for being back in that A5 Cousin.

Thank you for posting again and in the Hobonichi -- Yay! I too tried the B6 Common planner this year. I wanted to like it and stay with it the entire year but I don't know it just didn't connect so I am back in the Cousin and planner peace for me. 😀

Oh my gosh, you uploading a video today MADE MY DAY. Also, I have been in various hobonichi's since 2014, but had to go back to a cousin spring this year thanks to your influence, so happy to be back!! So thank you <3

Thanks for sharing! I am also an April birthday. Every year I think about an April start hobonichi and talk myself out of it. Including this year lol. Maybe next year.

Love your pages ❤ I just swapped my cousin full year to a cousin avec as its too chunky 😂😅

well, i'm back becasue i forgot to push post on my comment...hahah...I love the update. I wonder if you could use UnDu to get those stickers up....

I don’t think it’s inauthentic to not use your prompts. People come to you because they need help with prompts. But unlike them- no disrespect to them- you’re a prompts expert. We all have different skills and wins & that’s what’s awesome. Anyway, don’t sweat it. And ty for sharing!

I always give in to the Spring start cousin... It has a whole different energy compared to the January start for me. It's a f*ck it, let's do this! vibes.

Ahhhh i'm glad you're back! I love watching your updates, no matter what journal you're in, but I do feel really excited that you're back in a cousin! <3
