Meet Wendy! Graphic Designer, wife, mom, plant lady

I wanted to design something beautiful but also super functional that could really help people.

I didn't expect to design a planner, after all, there were already several already on the market. When the COVID lockdown happened, I became super stressed about how I was going to continue to be a successful business owner while also fostering my kids education as they embarked on virtual school. I wanted to design a tool that would help alleviate the stress and organizational challenges I was now facing and I knew I wasn't alone. Hence, the idea of the Weekly Walk Thru Planner was born. 

I knew if I was going to design a planner, I was going to do it my way. I wanted to have a single spot for all the details I needed to track. I was tired of having multiple, random pieces of paper with different lists and ideas so I decided to design something where all those details were in one, beautiful place.  

Wendy Wade is the owner of Weswen Design, a graphic design studio specializing in branding and logos for entrepreneurs and speciality events. In more than a decade of business, she has designed for projects large and small, but never did she design a planner until she conceived the idea of the Family planner. 

The planner I use:  Family Edition in Tropicat!
Favorite section in my planner:  For 2023, it will definitely be the self-care check-in! I'm determined to make 41 my healthiest year yet and know this section will really help me stay on track.
Spot that's always left blank:  I always forget to write in the "one accomplishment" box (oops)
Favorite thing about being a planner designer:  I LOVE seeing people tag me in social media pics or send me messages saying it's the best planner they have ever used!
