Why Choose All You Be?
In today’s fast-paced digital age, it's easier than ever to jot down a task in your Notes app or set a reminder in your digital planning tool. It’s fast. Convenient. Instant.
But it comes with a cost.
Digital tools make it effortless to overload your day without intention, adding task after task without considering your energy, time, or mental space. With All You Be planners and journals, everything slows down - in the best way.
Intentional Planning, Real Results
When you write things down by hand, you’re more likely to remember them, process them, and most importantly, do them.
Recent studies, including a 2021 publication in Frontiers in Psychology and a 2014 study from Psychological Science, show that handwriting improves memory retention, conceptual understanding, and cognitive processing compared to typing. Writing by hand engages the brain in deeper encoding processes, helping you better absorb, recall, and act on what you write.
With All You Be, we don’t just offer planners, we offer a mindful moment. A daily check-in with yourself.
Designed for Real Life, Not Just Aesthetic
I started this brand because I wanted to bring back traditional planning in a world where technology is advancing a little too quickly (and scarily), sometimes in ways that feel overwhelming and disconnected.
All You Be planners are intentionally minimalist, black and white, and flexible, so you can impose yourself onto the page, not the other way around.
You get to add your rhythm, your creativity, your structure.
Other notebooks and planners often follow this mold:
- Daily pages that end at 10-11 PM (even though many of us work late or are most productive at night).
- Busy designs that overwhelm more than they organize.
Back when I worked in the restaurant industry, I rarely got home before midnight. There’s a certain adrenaline that lingers after a long shift, your body’s buzzing, your mind’s still alert. I’ve always been a night owl, and some of my most focused, productive hours happen long after the world winds down.
Most planners weren’t built for people like me, or like you.
That’s why All You Be was created to support your lifestyle, not limit it.
Made for More Than Just Planning
Our products are more than a place to list tasks and reflections, they quietly hold space for your life.
Whether you’re tracking habits, jotting down late-night thoughts, or reflecting on how your day felt, each page becomes a real, physical record of you. Your growth, your energy, your evolution.
In a world where nothing feels truly yours, where memories are one swipe away from disappearing, there’s something sacred about holding a piece of your story in your hands.
It’s not just organization, it’s memory.
It’s not just paper, it’s a time capsule.
Years from now, you’ll flip through these pages and see how far you’ve come, in your own handwriting.
