0:00.0	Hello and welcome to Best Laid Plans.
0:11.2	This is the podcast where we talk all things planning and planning adjacent and this is your host, Sarah Hart Unger.
0:17.7	Today's episode is about planning your passions. and I am super excited about this topic.
0:24.8	It came to me because I recently read a book called This Is Not a Book about Benedict
0:30.8	Cumberbatch by Tabitha Carvon. And this was read, actually, for the Patreon book club that I do with my co-host of Best of Both
0:39.0	World's Laura Vandercom. And this book, it's not really about Benedict Cumberbatch. It's really

1:34.3	in the show notes for the post that goes along with this week, because it kind of shows how she is
1:39.7	using it to pull many different sources together in a very aesthetically pleasing way. So first I will go
1:45.5	ahead and read what she wrote here. She writes, Hi, Sarah, you mentioned Notion on a recent
1:52.2	podcast episode. Some thoughts in case they're helpful. I used Evernote for ages until it got too
1:57.6	crowded and clunky and then used word for everything for a few years.
2:01.7	Now I use Notion the way I would use a bullet journal with yearly planning, monthly planning,
