2025 SPROUTED PLANNER REVIEW & WALKTHROUGH | Planning Calm

[@megansampson]

Things are rough here, my husband will be losing his job on Tuesday. Thank you for this walk through, I absolutely love notebooks! I have way too many of them!

[@rbevans4648]

Wishing you and your husband safe passage through rough times 👍

[@blackgirlhappyplanner1973]

Love your attitude about the notebooks even amidst a big life change. Hang in there and hopefully this won't last long.

[@planningcalm]

Sorry to hear that sweet friend. I’ll be sending some love and prayers your way❤️❤️❤️

[@sproutedplanner]

I'm so sorry that things are rough your way, Megan. I hope you both will draw close together during this transition time xo

[@megansampson]

Thank you all! You guys are so wonderful ❤️

[@sproutedplanner]

Thank you SO MUCH for the lovely review, Cat! I loved hearing your honest opinion about everything. I truly appreciate your time doing this. * I use my monthly planner for my business content, too! It's great for that. * Beautiful idea to use the People section for people you're going to pray for! I love your heart on that.

[@planningcalm]

You are so welcome! It was a pleasure! Looking forward to using it in 2025😊

[@misseducates8521]

A Sunday video from Cat just feels right. I hope they continue!!!!!

[@planningcalm]

Thank you so much! :)

[@traceysmith311]

I know, it was such a pleasant surprise to see it pop up in my feed this morning.

[@misseducates8521]

Thank you for introducing me to this planner. I really, really like the layout and how intentional it is. Lots of spaces to write down your information.

[@planningcalm]

You are so welcome! :)

Hi, Cat! Thanks for the walk through the Sprouted Planner and thanks to Heather for sending it to you! I really like the monthly planner and the other goodies you showed. The planner is lovely. My biggest issue with coiled/bound planners is the fact that you can't easily add pages or change pages around. In my stage of life, there are sections in the planner that I'll never use and it would bother me no end, if I had to skip pages I paid for. It seems like such a waste to me! The more I see of the new planners coming out the more I know I will simply use supplies I already have on hand in 2025. Thanks for the video and have a lovely day, Cat!

[@planningcalm]

Thanks so much my friend! Always a treat to see you here :)

[@sproutedplanner]

The coil is definitely not for everyone! I completely get that. I'm so glad you know yourself and know what you like/dislike! Thanks so much for watching and commenting.

[@BrandiJanei]

It really looks like a nice planner and I love all of the extra things they sent you.

[@planningcalm]

It is a great planner. Thanks for being here Sis😊

[@sproutedplanner]

Thank you, Brandi! 🥰

Hi!😊 I have to say the color of the box is so pretty too!!😍 I’m hanging in there, definitely ready to settle into some fall coziness🍁❤️ I am a notebook lover too, 100%! That floral print is so pretty, those colors are gorgeous!😍 Wow, everything is so beautiful and looks like such good quality too! I think it looks terrific! I’d have to agree about the tabs, the planner is so neutral and open to you can use color or leave it neutral or whatever you’d like to do on the pages, the rainbow tabs kindof stick out a little bit and maybe a softer neutral tab would make more sense? I hope I said that right😅 Really quality products and of course a quality video!🥰 I’ll be in a hobonichi weeks again for 2025! Feels intense that it almost is 2025 too!😅 Thank you so much, this was so fun to see (I hadn’t heard of this planner before!)! I hope your Fall is off to a great start!❤

[@planningcalm]

I know! When I was a kid, 2025 sounded so futuristic to me, and now here we are! Thanks for your insights, Sis! Hope you will get to enjoy some crisp fall days of relaxing and enjoying some fall coziness. Thanks so much for being here😊

[@sproutedplanner]

Thanks for your thoughts, Rachel! I completely understand the sentiment on the tabs. Since all the pages in the planner are completely in grayscale and customizable for color, I wanted to add a pop of color on the exterior of it. That was just the mindset behind that. I'm so glad you found a planner you love and are sticking with in 2025!

[@imrachel941]

@@sproutedplanner Thank you! That makes sense too! And the colors certainly are beautiful!❤️

[@planningcalm]

I love that sentiment as well Heather. You put so much thought into your products😊

[@blackgirlhappyplanner1973]

Great review!

[@planningcalm]

Glad you enjoyed it😊

[@sproutedplanner]

Agreed! ♥

[@Swt.Designs]

I love how NOW a lot of the spirals are getting the idea of allowing, (don’t know if allowing is word I’m looking for) the customizability of offering things to snap in mimicking rings or disc customization type thing. What I am on look out for in 2025 is a work planner, Monday start or no weekend days listed. I bought a teacher planner with HP n it’s working thus far. Idk if there is such a thing as “planner peace, perfect planner, etc” but I love the “aesthetics” of this spiral. The only things I would change to fit my need would be no weekend wasted space. This planner is so versatile tho. It would look great in professional setting, clean, and minimal ISH. Love the lined space in calendar area n side check list on weekdays. For those of us who are “write in strait line challenged” lol I checked out site, didn’t see any “teacher style” but again I do love the aesthetics of her designs. I did see she has a lot of 2024 what would soon be outdated planners on sale. Meaning, in my situation if I’m going to have to be “covering up, whiting out, etc” to rid myself of wasted space to make useable anyway, I might buy outdated one to redacted & customize anyway. Thank you my dear friend as always we appreciate your honest reviews. God bless you.

[@planningcalm]

I can reach out and ask about a teacher planner. I’d like to see that as well. Thanks for watching and commenting. Always appreciate your awesome insights 😊

[@sproutedplanner]

Thank you for your thoughts on what works best for you! I'm glad HP is working for you so far. I love how many planners are out on the market, because everyone has a different idea of what works best for them. While you want zero weekends, others want full weekends, while others want an abbreviated weekend. I love the "write in straight line challenged" 😆Same! I don't have any teacher or academic style planners at this point (it's just me in my business) but maybe someday!

[@CreatingSelfCarePlans]

@swt.designs If you get the sprouted 2024 weekly version, note that the coil isn’t the same. Also, for the weekly pages, the lines don’t run across. The checklist portion is in a blank space instead of lines. There are also other changes made from the 2024 to the 2025 (like square corners versus rounded) so I would watch a 2024 review to make sure you know exactly what they are before you commit to buying an older one to redate. Amanda’s Favorites most likely has one you could watch.😊

[@Swt.Designs]

@@sproutedplanner aww thank you so much, you so rock. I appreciate your reply. I’ll be on the lookout i assure you. I love your designs. Congratulations on your business may God bless.

[@Swt.Designs]

@@CreatingSelfCarePlans will do thank you so much, definitely something to note. God bless

[@tyresseferguson2462]

I used the daily Sprouted Planner back in 2023. I did enjoy it. However, it was heavy to carry along with my weekly planner from Erin Condren. The paper is beautiful and the quality was good.

[@planningcalm]

Thanks for sharing!! I was wondering about this also😊

[@jenntaylor7473]

I don't know what the daily planner was like in 2023 but for 2024 going forward the daily is split into 2 books and is the same size as the weekly. There is also a weekly overview in the daily so you can plan weekly as well.

[@tyresseferguson2462]

@jenntaylor7473 I saw that she updated it for 2024, but I found out last year that I prefer everything in one book. Which is why I switched to a book bound planner.

[@jenntaylor7473]

@@tyresseferguson2462 makes total sense to want it all in one!

[@sproutedplanner]

Thanks for trying it back in 2023, Tyresse! It was definitely chunky back then. Thank you to @jenntaylor7473 for pointing out that it's been split in 2 now, but I completely understand you wanting it all in one. I hope you found a planner you love!

[@traceysmith311]

The Sprouted Planner looks like a quality planner, but my issue with coiled planners like that is that they are so heavy to carry around. Also, for this type of planner to be useful to me, I would want an academic year option. Thanks for another great video. It was a pleasant surprise to see one on a Sunday. 🦋

[@planningcalm]

I totally agree! I will carry it for a few days to see have heavy it is in my bag. I had a similar issue with my Passionate Penny Pincher Planner😊

[@sproutedplanner]

I completely understand that, Tracey! I hope to offer academic options this upcoming season. Thanks so much for your thoughts and feedback.

[@misseducates8521]

I understand why you choose to review this planner, Cat. It really looks like a planner you could love and use regularly.

[@planningcalm]

Thank you. It does contain some of my fav things :)

[@sproutedplanner]

Cat is new to me this year, and I thought the same thing! It was an honor that she accepted my invitation to review the planner ♥

[@planningcalm]

It was an honour to feature your product, Heather! It’s an exceptional planner and amazing accessories😊❤️
