For what matters most

Team member holding daily and weekly versions of Simplified Planner

Quick facts

Our Signature Simplified Planner Collection features six different cover options (each available in a daily or weekly format). Happy Stripe is our most popular, but we love them all!

We offer two 12-month editions: Academic and Calendar. Both are available in two formats: Daily and Weekly.

Many friends count down and celebrate along with us on launch days in April (Academic) and September (Calendar)!

Our eight color-loving team members are located across the country. Home base is Pensacola, Florida.

The Simplified Planner was created by Emily Ley in 2011. As an overwhelmed working mom, she desperately wanted a simple tool to help her manage work and life.

The Simplified Planner has changed the lives of hundreds of thousands of women around the world with its minimal and meaningful pages. Join the family!

Reviews

Sarah T.

Helps me stay focused

Simply put, The Simplified Planner helps me stay focused on my bigger-picture goals. Some days inevitably will be washes, but I know I can jump back in and turn it around the very next day. Love the community that feels like a big band of sisters just cheering one another on to big things!

— Sarah T.

It's gorgeous!

I'm someone who is both easily distracted and striving to make room for what matters, which is why I love using my Simplified Planner! My SP helps me streamline the things I have to do and eliminate the noise, so I can focus on what truly matters to me. Plus, it's gorgeous — I love getting to open and write in such a beautiful planner everyday!

— India B.

Keeps my ducks in a row

As a work-from-home mom of two, life can get chaotic very quickly, but consistently using the Simplified Planner keeps my ducks in a row! I use the Block Scheduling method, and having a hard copy of my to-do list and life activities helps keep the crazy at bay. Simplified colored pens and stickers are a bonus!

— Kristy M.

Brittany C.

The Perfect Tool for Balance

What I love most about my Simplified Planner is that it allows me to break down my days, weeks and months and see the bigger picture that makes up my life. It's the perfect tool to balance personal commitments and special days, work priorities and workout schedules, and travel plans and meal planning all in one place!

— Brittany C.

Makes my heart happy and brain organized

I truly use my planner as a massive, organized to-do list, on one side I put my "home to-dos" and on the other I put my "work to-dos". It's so nice to have everything organized and in one spot on my desk! I'm a paper girl, and my Simplified Planner makes my heart happy and my brain organized.

— Ashley B

Katelyn A.

Allows me to structure my days with intention

I always say that I'm not a "planner" girl. I sometimes have trouble following through with using a tangible planner! However, there is something about the Simplified Planner that always allows me to feel motivated to get organized and structure my days with intention!

— Katelyn A.

A Simplified Planner Love for 6 years!

I've been a Simplified Planner lover for over 6 years now! It's definitely on my "three things I'd take with me if stranded on a desert island" list! My planner is always by my side, helping me track everything from what I need to post on Instagram to what I need to prep for dinner! I adore the clean design and pretty details! My favorite thing about the SP is how easy it is for me to visualize my days — I strive to leave plenty of white space on each page ... because that's where the good stuff happens!

— McKenzie F.

Jen M.

A beautiful planner for any woman

I'm a busy mom of 5: homeschooling, blogging, writing, volunteering at my church. Over the years and the changing seasons of my life, the Simplified Planner continues to meet me with the same simple pages, and is the perfect tool for ensuring my focus stays on the important things — faith and family! The Simplified Planner helps me consider priorities and margin as I move lists and activities out of my head and onto a page, and repeating that daily, over years, has built a habit of time management. It's a beautiful paper planner for any woman in any season.

— Jen M.

Helped me so much in retirement

Retirement doesn’t mean you’re not busy. It doesn’t mean you’re totally organized either. I quickly realized if I was going to have a side hustle and be more involved with great grandchildren, I needed a process! My Simplified Planner and Emily Ley helped me succeed with both.

— Victoria D.

Questions

Q. What’s new about the most recent Simplified Planners?

The 2021 Signature Simplified Planners are as beautiful as ever! You'll still find your favorite (updated!) stickers, pocket, Mohawk paper, Simplified Prep Work, and more inside. Each Signature Simplified Planner (and Dapperdesk) comes with (new!) Simplicity Coaching (monthly via email) from Emily. Daily Editions now have notes pages as well!

Q. Can I pre-order a Simplified Planner?

No, but one way to prepare is to create an account on our site in advance. Launch day is B-A-N-A-N-A-S and we have LIMITED quantities available! Please also make sure you’re signed up for our newsletter to get ALL the launch day details in your inbox. You’ll also get a free copy of our Simplicity Challenge when you sign up.

Q. What dates does the Simplified Planner cover?

We publish four editions of the Signature Simplified Planner every year. Two are released in the Spring: Academic Daily and Academic Weekly. Academic planners run August through the following July. And two are released in the Fall: Calendar Year Daily and Calendar Year Weekly. Calendar year planners also cover 12 months (Jan-Dec). Check out our Edition Guide above for a side-by-side comparison.

Q. I’m so excited for my new Simplified Planner!

We're excited too! While you wait, make sure you're signed up for our (occasional) newsletter for great resources on simplifying and streamlining life beyond the pages of your planner. Once your Simplified Planner arrives, be sure to Instagram a photo and tag us! @Simplified #SimplifiedPlanner

Q. How do I keep my Simplified Planner clean?

The Simplified Planner will likely find its home on your desk or open in the kitchen for easy access. Be sure to keep your SP in a dry place away from accidental spills or peanut butter-covered little fingers. Should you get something on your cover, simply wipe it off with a damp paper towel.

Q. What kind of paper do you use?

We searched high and low for the best paper in the world for The Simplified Planner — the perfect thickness, the perfect color, and the most luxurious quality in the world. We're proud to use Mohawk Via (Smooth Pure White 70 Text) in all of our Signature Simplified Planners.

Q. What are the best pens for my Simplified Planner?

Your favorite pens won't bleed through because our Mohawk paper is super thick! We love Pilot Precise V5 pens and of course our Gold Dot and Happy Stripe pens!

Q. Can I personalize my Simplified Planner?

We do not offer monogramming, but our friends at Monogram It Darling offer the cutest custom monograms in their Etsy shop and would love to make one for you!
