Know you need a plan...
**but can’t ever seem to make one work?**

The Lifeschooling Vision Planner is the perfect planner for non-planner, Type B personalities!

Do homeschool planners totally overwhelm you?

Do you have 342 of them sitting on various shelves throughout your house, collecting dust bunnies as you think,

“But I might try it again someday..."

"It’s so detailed and organized and I know I should be using it.”

"But I paid a lot of money for that one! I can't just throw it away!"

Are you a type B personality?

Do planners feel too rigid and confining?

Do you feel panicked every time you open those pages with alllll those lines, boxes, dates, agendas, and expectations staring you in the face?

Do you feel a sense of overwhelm, thinking you have to...

...while meanwhile, you are frozen in analysis paralysis while your kids “radically unschool” for the seventh straight week of the year?

Ah, welcome to my brain, friend.

In the words of Anne of Green Gables, we are “kindred spirits”!

This was totally me. I would start a planner for myself or for my kids, only for it to end up in the bottom of a pile somewhere in the dark recesses of my homeschool room.

And then we would descend into “winging it” on a daily basis until meal time became “Food Science 101” and playing with Legos became “Beginning Architectural Design.”

Sure, there’s a place for that in life, too. We Type B personalities know this best!

And I won’t tell you I don’t still see Legos as an educational opportunity and lunch time as another learning time. Lifeschooling takes advantage of these interests and necessary daily interruptions.

After all, learning IS always happening!

But still, if there’s at least no general map, we could end up south when we intended to head north!

Completely lost and confused!

I can’t tell you how often I woke up late on a Monday morning, discouraged and frustrated with myself for once again running from my planner over the weekend and having to throw some kind of learning plan together as I simultaneously burned my breakfast and scribbled out another rudimentary “to do” list on the back of a receipt for a child who was already deeply enthralled in video games.

“Oh no!” I’d think, “My child will never be self-disciplined and we’ll be stuck in 3rd grade math books when he’s 15!”

You know the story. Because if you’ve read this far, it’s probably yours, too!

But my story changed one day.

It changed when I finally decided to create a planner that gelled with my crazy brain. A planner that would not try to rudely control every area of my life and corral this creative soul into rigid compliance.

This would be a planner that would respect my individual quirks and limitations. A planner that was grace-based and fully of flexibility.

And more than that, this would be a planner that would respect my kids’ individuality and God-given gifts, and help me hone and refine them so they could become experts in one or two fields before graduation, setting them apart from their peers.

This would be a planner that would give me an exciting overall vision and purpose in the everyday mundane tasks and help me to see them as part of the molding process rather than simply following someone else’s boxes to check.

I wanted to create a planner that would be a true “lifeschooling” planner because lifeschooling has worked for us!

Did you know if you are modeling your homeschool after the traditional school model, your kids are only retaining up to 30% of what they learn?

That's why lifeschooling is so important! Learning through real life experiences, "when you are walking by the way, and when you lie down, and when you rise" (Deut. 11:19) is not only more enjoyable, but it is also more effective! Interactive methods help your children retain up to 90% of what they learn!

*Taken from this link.*

There was nothing like that out there—a planner that focused on refining our children’s gifts. Or at least nothing that I had tried.

And I had tried a lot!

This planner would need to help me and other homeschool moms (because if this was something I needed, then I knew others needed it, as well) really cast a vision for what we wanted the “finished product”—our children—to look like.

After all, if we are homeschooling, we don’t have to do things “like everyone else”! That’s the whole point, isn’t it? Decide where we want our children to end up and working backwards from there. Who says they all have to have the same standardized buckets of (often useless) knowledge put into them, anyway?

So that’s what I did. I created a planner that helped me observe and draw out the gifts God had put into my children. I made a planner that had space to dream about and visualize the future from a bird’s eye view, while also organizing the daily, nitty-gritty stuff.

And like I said, it worked for us!

We have successfully raised two children to adulthood and watched them excel in their interests and become “hire-able” experts. Our oldest son became an expert in the field of I.T., landing a job shortly after high school and then quickly accelerating to a new position in another company at twice his original salary!

Our daughter is an expert in her field of art, has acted in a number of films and productions, including the Kendrick’s pro-life movie called “Lifemark,” and also wrote a novel at the age of 13.

Lifeschooling has worked for us. And for a long time the Vision Planner worked great...

BUT, my planner wasn’t perfect. Using it on a year-to-year basis was difficult, as it lacked some flexibility in the way I had laid it out.

And since I’m also a perfectionist, that had to change. I put hours of work into tweaking and refining it, separating out the detailed guide from the planner pages so it can more easily be printed from year to year, and adding cover sheets for each child’s planner.

**My amazing Vision Planner is now the Vision Planner and Vision Planner Guide.**

Friend, here's your map to freedom and simplicity.

Now that it's updated, I’m back to using it again with our youngest and looooving it!!

Vision Planner Testimonials

 5/5

I love the planner. I love having the combination of checklists, forms. The introduction and preliminary mental work were helpful in getting me in the right frame of mind before planning our school year. I often get sidetracked with other people's agendas and opinions, so this is a great way for me to start. I like having the book recommendations within the planner. I hope to read them soon; I have two. Knowing why you recommend them was helpful, too... This planner walked me through areas I haven't done with other hs planners, including creating my profile and using my own spiritual gifts, etc. Love it because I feel guilty about pursuing them sometimes but then resentful. The daily journal may end up being a favorite in time. I am so hard on myself about not getting so much done. This will help me see that we are accomplishing something. I am so thinking once my son starts reading/writing that it might be a way to encourage him to do more. Also, seeing the box "What did I do today that was successful" is a big need for me. I don't see myself as successful, so this will help me to be intentional about finding that success in my day.

The Lifeschooling Vision Planner is an essential resource for any homeschool mom who desires to surrender her homeschool to God’s leading and to embrace a culture of learning from real life. From brainstorming pages to questions to consider, recommended resources and personal testimonies, Danielle gently leads you to discover how God has uniquely wired not only your children but you as teacher/guide and your family as learners together. The planner includes scheduling sheets for the type A mama and journaling pages for the more relaxed. There is something for everyone here and the freedom to organize (or not organize) your homeschool journey the way God leads. I am enjoying the clarity that God is giving me as I step back and plan according to His plan for my family homeschool.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about the Lifeschooling Vision Planner! It is so much more than a planner, it gets you ON FIRE for your homeschool and it helps you to align what is truly important in your life and family with your homeschool. There are some great resources like book recommendations and worksheets to help you work through your vision on paper- she even provides her own examples to help you along the way. Probably my favorite thing of all is the encouraging Bible verses that are written beautifully throughout the planner that speak life into your soul. This planner is definitely worth ever penny and then some! I meant every single word of this review. You have created a wonderful product that I am sure will make a huge difference in a lot of lives and homeschools! Thank you!!

The Lifeschooling Vision Planner is not a "planner" like I have seen before! It is not just another collection of blank planning sheets, calendars, and forms that you can find for free just about everywhere. It is more of a step-by-step guide to understanding your children, to understanding your educational goals for them, and to recognizing the learning opportunities that happen every day. (It's 40 pages of content and planning pages!) And yes, there are useful forms and planning pages included, along with some samples of how they may be used. The Lifeschooling Vision Planner is a Christian homeschooling planning guide for those who lifeschool in particular. I am writing this in the middle of my first "official" (as in turning in paperwork to my district) year of homeschooling. I live in a state that has more homeschooling laws/guidelines than most others, and no, I probably will never classify my children's education as "lifeschooling". However, I love the idea of lifeschooling and believe that I can/do/will incorporate those concepts in our homeschool. Danielle did a wonderful job of putting this resource together, and I know it will help me design a better and more thorough education for my kids.

I was thrilled to receive The Lifeschooling Vision Planner as promised during The Lifeschooling Conference. I had been looking forward to its release because while I was very interested and excited about the whole concept of Lifeschooling, it was still a little hard to wrap my brain around. I needed a little “handholding” and was looking for ideas about how this actually worked! I knew we needed a little “structure” as we ventured out into Lifeschooling. I felt a little lost without a plan for these more “relaxed“ days. The Lifeschooling Vision Planner has met that need, and more! It is that tool I needed as I seek direction for how to meet each child’s needs, along with our family’s goals, in this relaxed, Lifeschooling style while still feeling organized and productive.

FAQs

How is this different from the "Who Is This Child?" Journal?

The “Who Is This Child?” Journal helps you discover your child’s gifts and talents as you walk through daily life. It is meant to be used as a record of interests and “rabbit trails.” The planner is most useful when used in combination with the journal and helps create a long-term vision based on the discoveries made in the journal.

What if I'm a Type A mom who wants to learn to be more relaxed? Will this work for me?

Yes! If you have the right mindset and truly want to bring more of a lifeschooling approach into your homeschooling, the Vision Planner can be a great guide. While it may be “looser” than what you are used to, this will be a benefit if you are able to lean into lifeschooling.

Why should I get this planner when I can get so many others for free?

You know the saying… “You get what you pay for!” There are some helpful freebies out there, but most have not had the amount of time and effort poured into them that this planner has had. The Lifeschooling Vision Planner is over 50 pages of worksheets, forms, and content and is almost like a book and a planner wrapped into one. It’s like being coached along the process of planning your more relaxed approach to homeschooling!

What if I don't like it and it ends up in that big pile of planners I have? Can I get my money back?

Of course I want you to be happy with your purchase! While I am not able to fully refund your money, if you let me know what did not work for you and how I can improve the planner, I will be happy to give you a coupon for the amount you paid.
