0:00.0	Hello and welcome to Best Laid Plans.
0:11.0	This is your host Sarah Hart Unger and this is the podcast where we talk all things planning
0:15.1	and planning adjacent.
0:17.4	This is going to be a Q&A episode, so super excited to share with you some questions and some tips which came my way during the month of September. And something new for our Q&A series is I just wanted to mention that this series is being sponsored by Jenny Kane, who has been a sponsor of this podcast for I think almost two years now.
0:40.0	It is an honor to work with Jenny Kane. They make absolutely a gorgeous clothing with a very
0:45.9	California minimalist aesthetic. My Jenny Kane sweaters are some of the most prize possessions
0:51.0	of my wardrobe, and I just love traveling to cold places because I get to put them on.

1:32.3	write you back through my email and it'll come to your phone. So super fun. You can send me a voice
1:36.5	memo that way as well. Anyway, this one came in and just made me happy, so I wanted to share it. It says, I wanted to tell you one thing I do with my
1:45.5	planner that I love. When I travel, I purchase a sticker, postcard, or bookmark as my souvenir.
1:51.5	I then put it in my planner at some future date. When I come across it, it always makes me happy to
1:57.0	remember the good time I had on my trip. I use a discbound planner, so it's easy to punch
2:01.6	an ad in a postcard or bookmark. Besides making me happy, the practice increases the chances that I'll
