Earlier this year, I set out on a quest to find the best planner for 2017-2018. Well, now with a new year upon us, I am embarking on the search for the absolute BEST planner to kick off 2018. I’ve had the opportunity to check out a number of awesome planners, and I wanted to give you a full review of each to help you select whichever planner is best for you.
