You’re so real and I appreciate that. I also use journaling and planning as my therapy. It’s so refreshing to see someone else do this and to listen to you express it. Thank you!

[@RachelleinTheory]

Thank you Elaine!

Yes please to sticker organization, I would love to see a video on that!! I really love the way you plan (and the way you set up your videos, so nice to see a bit of your setting ☺️). I’m also in a spring hobonichi this year, it’s fun to see someone else in the same!! Best of luck with your Master’s, I did mine years ago and remember that feeling of being almost done-so exciting!!!

[@RachelleinTheory]

Thank you so much for the comment and for watching and for the kind words!! Sticker organization for sure to come :)

[@vegronica9006]

My stickers (and stamps!) are such a mess! Stickers are in pouches, folders, and a binder because I never found something consistent. And I still have a bunch of Me and my Big Ideas Happy Planner stickersbooks so those are all in a pile. Stamps are in two different repurposed BarkBoxes (and some live out on my desk because I use them so often). I saw Jetpens just posted clear folders for stamp storage but I'd have to buy way too many - hoping to get some inspiration on a better way!

[@RachelleinTheory]

@@vegronica9006 oh definitely… when I do a sticker organization vid you will all see how truly messy it is 😅😅

[@fumiscorner3793]

Would love to see your stickers!! I also love the affirmation cards and using tarot cards on your journal. so cool!!

[@RachelleinTheory]

Thank you so much for your comment and I'm glad you like it!! Hope it gave you a little inspo to try tarot and oracle cards too :)

[@samanthajonesl]

i’d love to see a budgeting video! i really like your style of videos(:

[@RachelleinTheory]

Thank you! Budgeting videos on the horizon!

[@sandrapawula4109]

Love the way you're using tarot cards in your planner and for monthly guidance. I've fall off from using my tarot cards but this is making me want to start again.

[@RachelleinTheory]

Yay! They're such a great source of guidance right?

[@TheBohemianStyle]

Budgeting planning and set up would be great. I’m looking into how to include it in Cousin. I plan to use month view, maybe set up templates for planning and actually budget and maybe use the tiny Hobonichi weekly booklet.

[@chapter48creative]

That binder is magic. Yes, I’d love to see how you organize all your bits.

[@leahfischer5264]

I think I found my journal soulmate!!🤣I feel a binge on your videos coming!!Keep them coming..I love your energy!

[@RachelleinTheory]

I'm so glad and thank you for the encouragement!!

[@thebookishkhmerican4303]

Love your hobinichi videos! I am excited to get my first one soon to prep for 2023. I am a fellow grad student and almost finished with my masters program in public health. I will be in my last semester and only have capstone left too.

[@RachelleinTheory]

Thank you!! Omg CONGRATS on being so close to finishing. It's going to feel so peaceful when you are done 😌

[@andrew4635]

I am so here for these weekly tarot spread reflections! (As your emails have probably told you, I've been making my way through a few of your videos :p I'm so there if you've got more spiritual &/or tarot-related journalling content!)

[@RachelleinTheory]

Thank you Andrew! There will for sure be some here and there ;) Thanks for watching!

[@lisaaebi8329]

That looks like an awesome sticker organizer! Would love to see a video on this! 😊

[@RachelleinTheory]

Definitely 😄 thank you for watching!

[@peerreviewed]

Surely the best school emoji is 🎓? Congrats on being so close to the end! I'm at the complete other end of the journey; I'm actually starting my PhD next week! (Also thirding the Instagram query from another comment! Would love to follow you for some cousin inspiration)

[@RachelleinTheory]

Congrats on starting a PhD and thanks for watching!! I'll be sure to post insta soon :)

[@paulashealthyliving]

this makes me want to learn more about the Tarot. Thanks for the inspiration.

[@RachelleinTheory]

I’m so glad! Come back and share how it goes ☺️

[@jennifercurran9092]

i would love to see you use stickers and other Ephemera. i have lots of die cut ephemera and would like to see how you use it.

[@RachelleinTheory]

I dont decorate a ton but many of my other videos explore this more thoroughly!

[@mistybeethoven3630]

🎓🎓🎓 Masters Student MSc Political Science. About to hand in Thesis within the next two weeks 😍👍 congratulations! xxxxxx

[@RachelleinTheory]

Congrats to you too!!! Keep killing it :)

[@mjshobbies]

I have the hardest time positioning the camera.. or in my case my iPhone. :) Do you use an overhead holder? I use a tripod so that's my biggest struggle. Lighting is another struggle too. Can't always use natural light so I'm looking for a way to record videos at night.

[@RachelleinTheory]

Yes, I use my iPhone and an overhead holder. It's not my fav but it does the job! I also only can use natural light rn so my video recording time is very limited! The struggle is real

[@katiebassoon]

📚 1 more year left in my master’s program!

[@RachelleinTheory]

Yes!! Get it!

[@vegronica9006]

Congrats on almost finishing your Masters;we that's such a huge accomplishment! 👏 I am definitely with you on covering mistakes with a sticker or more opaque washi tape; doesn't leave the reminder of my mistake quite as obviously as using correction tape. Crumpling the old sticky note looked like it was very satisfying during your migration step! 😌 Do you have an Instagram account? It wasn't in the video description so thought I'd ask here to give you a follow. 📸

[@RachelleinTheory]

You are the second person to ask me about an Instagram!!! I will be sure to let everyone know in a vid when I have something set up 😊

[@OktoberJournal]

Love this! I enjoy seeing people use tarot and other cards in their planners or journals, being a reader myself! Do you have an Instagram? I'd love to follow you☺️

[@RachelleinTheory]

I'm so glad you love the tarot pulls in here! Ngl I was worried they would scare people away haha. I don't have an instagram yet but coming soon :)

[@ashcashbadash]

I actually love the way you film - as a visuals person I love the aesthetic as I also journal. Love the voiceover and I can read the book fine 🥰 also would love to know if you have an IG to follow

[@RachelleinTheory]

So sweet! Thank you for watching. I have a personal IG but nothing set up that’s super associated with this channel yet. When I have something more planner-y I will be sure to note it in a video 😊
