I have a confession to make. I like paper. I still use a paper planner and I take a paper journal/notebook with me to meetings. (Side note: if you love paper like me, check out the notebooks at Appointed. Gorgeous!) This doesn’t mean I don’t use technology for planning or notes.

Keeping up is not easy and it’s very time consuming.
