Unsolicited Advice Planner

A supportive planner and journal for anyone—filled with prompts, reminders, and gently existential encouragement from the creative mind of Adam JK.

It’s never too late to start—even if you’re not normally a paper-planner person. This spiral-bound, undated companion is the useful and creative tool we all need in these busy and complicated times. Part organization, part distraction, and part “everything place” to check in with yourself, plan ahead, and reflect as it happens, Unsolicited Advice will keep you going all year long.
No toxic positivity. No handwriting anxiety over “perfect” pages. We’re all just trying our best here! You’ll find writing prompts, introspective activities, comic relief, and two sheets of illustrated color stickers—designed to help you look forward, set goals, unplug, make space, and keep track of all the good, bad, and “Uhh, what was that?” that you’ll experience in the days, weeks, and months to come.
Already a fan favorite, this evolved and undated edition starts whenever you’re ready and is perfect for students, recovering digital obsessives, or anyone who’s been burned by frilly “optimistic” planners in the past.

The main differences lie in artwork style, availability, price, and collector appeal. Ultimately, the choice between standard and variant covers depends on personal preference, budget, and individual collecting goals.
