Digital task mastery, pen and paper planning, and keeping the family organized: no two moms do this exactly alike – even those of us who love to plan and organize! In our first interview episode of 2022, Sarah Powers sits down with fellow planner people Christine Koh and Sarah Hart-Unger to discuss our favorite digital resources, pen-and-paper tools, and methods of staying organized at work, home, and school. We get into the nitty gritty of color coded everything, what works and what doesn’t for our personalities, and how we use planning tools to avoid over-scheduling and leave white space for joy and (gasp!) even spontaneity. Join us!

Note: Sarah Powers will be joined by Kelsey Wharton from The Girl Next Door podcast for a companion conversation to this episode on Instagram Monday January 10 – look for us live @themomhour, or check back to this page later in the week for a recorded version of the chat.
