HAPPY JUNE – new month on a Monday. (Hey, it works out 1/7 of the time!)
In today’s episode, I review two planners for listeners looking for some fresh start energy this summer! I remain in a relative state of Planner Peace (I can’t remember a year I didn’t even feel TEMPTED to planner hop by June), but I know that might not be true for everyone. So — here we go!
First is the Taja Fitness Planner (on via Amazon, it’s this one — Amazon affiliate link).
Here’s what the daily spreads in there look like:
This A5 sized undated planner has a ton of features and space for up to 20 weeks of fitness tracking – and is approximately $8, so not a huge risk!
Our second planner up for review is the Dailee 2026-27 Mom Planner (though obviously it could be for anyone in charge of family logistics). This planner is $55 and has over 500 pages (!) of content, from cleaning checklists to packing lists and more.
IT IS A BIG BUBBA, weighing close to 4 lb. I would assume anyone who wanted to use this prefers to keep their planner parked on a desk. As promised, here are some pix!
A few of the other spreads:
I like the aesthetics and layout of this planner a lot, and the paper is not earthshatteringly amazing but I think it’s completely serviceable. I think this particular edition is best for someone who wants a ton of space AND structure, and doesn’t mind a big hefty book! They do also have other editions that are smaller (ie, don’t include all the individual daily pages), so definitely worth checking those out as well. PLUS digital editions and Notion templates!
Send me ideas for what to review next!
AND YES – if you’d like to win this planner, please enter a comment below and I will randomly draw a winner on Friday. Please note I can only send to US or Canada (it’s so heavy!).
Note: I purchased both of the above planners on my own and have no relationship with the companies.

Hi Sarah! This was a great June 1 episode, with lots of fresh start energy! I would love to put my hat in the ring for the Dailee planner giveaway – I like the big planners, and this one sounds perfect for me. I’m a newer listener to the podcast, and am currently reading and loving your book! Thanks for what you do!
Good morning. Great episode today. I love both the planners you reviewed. Thank you for posting the pictures. I start all my Monday mornings off with listening to your podcast, I absolutely love it. Have an amazing week!
Always enjoy listening to the episodes when they come out on Monday. Would love to enter the giveaway for the Dailee planner.
So happy to see some new planner reviews to kick off the summer season! Thanks for sharing, and for the chance to win the Dailee.
Excited to listen to this episode! I love your thorough planner reviews.
Love your planner reviews almost as much as your real time xyz with me! It’s so motivating to me. 🙂
thanks for these planner reviews! I feel like it is impossible to get objective reviews on the internet these days.
Thank you so much for all of these reviews. I love listening to you and getting all of your wonderful ideas and I do check out everything that you recommend. I would be so excited to try this planner.
Hi Sarah, what a great way to kick off June! I loved both of these planner reviews and would be interested in trying the Dailee Planner. I worked for 14 years in my industry but am now taking a break in between jobs and being a SAHM is a whole different experience! I could use the planning help. Thank you for everything you do!
Not only is it a month with a Monday start, which I always love, but it’s my birthday. I’m choosing to believe that’s good luck for the whole year.
That Dailee layout looks promising for organizing a day or a project – would love to try it!
The “cleaning schedule “ section of this planner is really speaking to me! I think that when a planner has very specific task pages it encourages me to schedule things and accomplish them. If there’s a category for something, I’m going to use it and if I write something in my planner, it gets done!
The Dailee planner looks amazing. Thanks for the chance to win!
Loved this episode! I used the Dailee planner a few years ago and loved it, except I wanted something more portable. I’m in a new phase now — due in August with a new baby and will be a full time SAHM (yay!!) so the mom planner would be perfect! I’d love to toss my name into the giveaway!!
Would love the Dailee planner! It sounds so cool to use with my freelance and homeschool life!
Throwing my hat in the ring for the Dailee, as well! Currently halfway through your book and really enjoying it 🙂
Wow, the Dailee looks awesome! Thanks for the giveaway! 🙂
Great review! The Dailee is a great one. I love a chunky planner.
Just found you via Cal Newport’s podcast a few weeks back, and, as a father of 3, I’m all-in on quintiles and have been integrating that into my Bullet Journal-based system. First quintile planning today (a bit late – our kids have been out of school for 2 weeks already), June monthly, and a weekly plan – great day to include some new processes.
I like the looks of both of these planners! Thanks for the reviews.
I’d love to win this planner!
Thanks for the reviews! Would love to win this planner.
I would love to try this planner. Thanks for all the helpful information.
This was great! Would love to win the Dailee.
Love all of your content and helpful planner reviews! Would love to win!
Hi Sarah,
Thanks for amazing content. You (and Laura) have been my ear companions as I transitioned back to work after my 2 kids. Your recent book has put me back on the analog planner journey and I’d love the chance to try out the Dailee if I were to be so lucky to be drawn.
Keep up the amazing content!
Ps I’d love a review of the Laurel Denise pop up Jo planner.
I enjoyed this episode, and am considering getting the fitness planner. I actually don’t want to enter the giveaway for the Dailee planner- I’m happy with my Clever Fox planner, and I think someone else will get more use out of the Dailee than I would. I don’t want a cleaning schedule, ha…
Long time listener, first time poster and I was intrigued by the Dailee planner. I love a good chunky analog option to track so many things and would love to be entered for it!
I would love to have a chance to win the Dailee planner! For now I’m going to try out the Taja because I’m trying to take more steps to become more active (pun intended) 😁
Please count me in for the giveaway! My planner doesn’t travel with me so this one sounds great.
This was a great episode! I’ve seen ads for The Dailee Mom Planner, but having a full review was really helpful! As someone who needs a lot of structure that has 3 kids (one with special needs), a busy job, a husband in school, and a busy social life, this planner sounds like something great to try (especially with the thorough meal plan and cleaning schedule). I’d love to be entered for the planner giveaway!
Also, I loved your episodes on AI! It was interesting to hear your take on it as well as your developed thoughts on the iPhone. New tech can certainly be a weird adventure.
Thanks for all you do!!
Why am I so intrigued by this phone book planner?! Thanks for these new-to-me planner reviews.
This was my first episode! Loved it and the planner sounds amazing.
I have a Full Focus that I’m moving out of for July and need something new to fill the void! Would love to try this.
Thanks for the review of this planner! I always love to hear your opinions on new planner products. Thanks for the chance to win! Love the podcast and I’ve gotten so much inspiration from you and your methods!
I would love to win this planner! Thanks for sharing content I look forward to every week!
Thank you for this episode and reviewing these products. I bought the fitness planner and I’d love to be in the drawing for the Dailee. Thank you! Rebecca
I love your podcast and have been enjoying your book! I would love to win the Dailey. I’m a mom who is leaving teaching this year and feeling a bit stuck with my current planner as my new role as stay at home mom (AKA household CEO) has a lot to stay organized. I didn’t even know a planner like this existed and I would love to give it a try. I’ll probably order one even if I don’t win I love it so much!
A New month, a Monday and some new planners to spark an interest! I have to confess, when I get up on Monday morning’s I always get so excited to know that I can look forward to a new Episode of BLP! You always start my week out on the right path! I hope you have a great summer!!!
I thoroughly enjoy all of your episodes but I especially love planner reviews! I admit to being sort of a planner junkie, although I have been limiting myself to the Sterling Ink Common Planner compact for personal and Moleskine weekly for work for the past year. I’m definitely type A so the Dailee planner certainly intrigues me! Thanks for continuing to provide a fantastic podcast!
I want that brick of a planner! Thanks for reviewing!
Thanks for the reviews! I’m a academic year planner buyer so I’m on the hunt for a 26/27 planner. I really do love the show – I listen every week!
Thank you for this episode! I’m a new mom to a 4 month old who is currently gearing up for a crazy school year next year, and I’d love to try out this planner!
Thank you for the dailee review! I’ve been looking at this one for months now and would love to be considered for the mom planner.
I’m so glad you reviewed the Dailee because it looks absolutely amazing. A little intimidating, but I would still love to try it out if I win!
Love how many comments are here. Really enjoyed this podcast and have been listening to it a lot lately. Love the content you post about.
Oh I’m going to check out this fitness planner. I don’t always stick with it so knowing it’s so inexpensive makes that easier!
