I’ve teamed up with a wonderful group of bloggers and the fabulous team from ErinCondren.com to bring you an amazing giveaway. I’m so excited for the launch of the 2013-2014 Life Planners, they are packed with . I can’t hardly wait to get my hands on a new one. My current Life Planner doesn’t even end until December, but I’ll be ordering the new edition today. Even better, you can enter to win one of ten Life Planners and a grand prize of $500 in Erin Condren creations.
By now, you’ve probably heard of Erin Condren Life Planners, you’ve can find tons of videos on YouTube and fantastic reviews. I want to show you what my Life Planner looks like, a year later. I went back to October and took a few pictures, hopefully you can relate to the chaos. My life is jam packed, I have a full-time teaching job, a toddler, a blog, a full social calendar and I still manage to cook dinner most nights. Often, I get asked, How do you fit everything in? When I get that question face-to-face, I literally open my calendar to the current week.
You see, life is busy, I’m sure each one of you can relate. I have my calendar with me every day and I write things down that I need to accomplish, I make quick to-do lists on the pages and work on tackling those lists throughout the day. At the top of the page, I write down my blog topic for the day, at the bottom, dinner plans. Using my Life Planner, I feel more put-together, I don’t forget things or leave people hanging. It has been a fantastic addition to my life, I’ve been loyal to the Life Planner for the past two years and I can’t imagine using anything else.
2011-2012 Life Planner Review/ 2012-2013 Life Planner Review
I try to keep things color-coordinated so I can easily spot things on the calendar. One thing is certain, if it’s written in my calendar, it gets accomplished. Of course, I was ecstatic when I heard that the Life Planners would be launching today. I’ve watched Erin Condren’s Facebook page for updates, and I have loved all of the videos this week.
The new Life Planners will feature many of the things I have come to know and love, the laminated tabs, durable laminated cover, aluminum coil, lined pages for notes, a clear pouch and folder, 12 labels, and a two-page monthly view, just to name a few. Year after year, Erin Condren and her team listens to what the customer says and they make fantastic changes, for the better.
- Goals and Notes section on every page
- Customizable stickers
- Additional lines below each individual day for meal planning, exercise routine, newborn scheduling… whatever you need it for, it’s there
- Extras to add to your planner like notepads, a pen holder and marker pens
- Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday are now always on the left side of the coil
- Elastic Bands to keep the planner closed
It usually takes me hours to decide on a design (some of your favorites are back), but this year they made it easy for me with the Gold Edition. It has a glamorous gold coil and gold details throughout. It’s the perfect planner to take me through the rest of 2013 and into 2014.
Now, you see how I use my Life Planner, how will you use YOURS?
And about that giveaway, you can enter below. Good luck!!

I will use mine for blogging, of course! And then in August, I’ll also be transitioning into a new job (one I’m not sure of yet), but I know it’ll come in handy as I get to know my new position and start planning things for work while keeping up with a half-marathon/marathon training schedule!
I came across your blog today and it is fabulous!
I adore Erin Condren and would use this planner as a travel/workout tracker/meal planner 🙂
I would love one, I am an organization junkie!
I adore my Erin Condren planner. I am a mom to two twin girls so I keep up with all appointments and play dates. I also work as an online teacher and so everything work related goes in there.

Great giveaway. Love the EC planners!
love my old planner! I can’t wait to get a new one!
I need this. My sister has a 15 month old daughter and after seeing me with my 2 kiddos (18 months apart) she actually told me she’s scared to have another because she’s scared of losing her mind like me. This planner could be the difference in my kids having more cousins to play with.;-)
Now with two kids, baseball and much more….it’s time to get organized. I love the Erin Condren Planner!!
Oh I would love this! I need to keep organized – it just keeps my life easier! Especially if I am teaching again in the fall 🙂

I’ve had an EC Planner for 2 years now – LOVE THEM!
I’ll use my new Erin Condren life planner to keep track of my super busy schedule! As a full-time college student who attends church, is in a sorority, and lives in a house with four other girls, I need to balance class, assignments, church responsibilities, dues, meetings, events, bills, house meetings, and more! But with the life planner, I’ll be able to turn what used to be a stressed out Elizabeth, trying to remember all she needs to get done, into a cool, collected, “I’m on top of it” girl.
I will use my planner to stay more organized in college. I will make sure to put down important due dates, etc. I feel that this will be really beneficial to me as I am entering my senior year at the university.
I would use mine to balance work, college, and a social life! (:
I love the Erin Condren life planner! This year will be my third year using the planner and I am so excited for the new changes!

I have always wanted one. I have never found just the right one.
My planner from this past year looks as crazy as yours! I swear by these books, never have I ever used another planner more than the life planner. I’m so excited to get my new one with all the extras. I’m most looking forward to the meal planning/fitness spot at the bottom to go with my new healthy lifestyle.
I really hope I win this!! I’m due in August and life’s about to get crazy! Hopefully this would keep me (sort-of) together.
I have a life planner already from Erin and I think the improvements they have made are awesome! I use mine as a general life planner that keeps my family running!
I would use mine for everything especially planning a workout plan.
I love my Erin Cinden planner and have actually used it, unlike previous years when I’ve just had a regular diary!
The bands to keep the planner closed is a genius idea!
I will use it for everything! I love all the new changes!
I need a new one, which would be used to organize the new school year (I’m a teacher!)
I have loved my last 2 EC life planners. So helpful with my girls’ school stuff. Plus, I’m hoping to go back to school myself soon. It always takes me forever to pick a cover! I’m curious which one you’ll be ordering this year?
I would totally use it to keep track of everything our family needs to do on a daily basis: appointments, vacations, meal planning, etc. Every since my son was born, I’m horribly unorganized! 🙂
Would love to win a EC planner! We are expecting our first in August and I would love something to keep track of feedings, etc.

I just got married on may 9th and there is so much my husband and I have planned for this year and with both our crazy schedule it would be so nice to have it all written down.

I can’t live without a planner. I’ve always used one, as far back as I can remember. I’m excited for the new additions because they’re all things I wish my current LP had!
I’d love to win this! I love my current Erin Condren planner. It’s the only thing that keeps me and my busy life organized. I have started blogging again and want to be able to organize that a little better. I also work full-time and am a mommy of two little ones, so it keeps me organized that way too. And let’s not forget that I also have a husband and friends and every good mommy has to keep her social life planned out as well.
I just placed my order the other day for my very first Erin Condren Life Planner. I’ll be starting college in September (better late than never!) and with my daughter being in senior kindergarten, I’ll use my planner for my class schedule, as well as my daughter’s school schedule and child care arrangements.
If I win, I will give the planner to my best friend who is juggling a busy husband who does a ton of travelling for his job and 2 kids, night school (and soon college) a day job as well as being a Doula.
I’ve heard great things about the life planner!
The new GOLD edition planner is fantastic! I would use my life planner to get my 6 year old son and I on track , moving forward goal setting, goal accomplishing success!!! Yeeehaw!
