I’m big on planners and I’m also big on supporting Black-owned businesses. This blog post combines the two and serves as a follow-up to my post from last year. So here’s a list of 10 Black-owned planners and journal companies to get you set for 2022.
1. Growing, Glowing & Overflowing Planner (by @misslisamarie)
The Growing, Glowing & Overflowing Planner is a 12-month planner designed to keep you encouraged, organized, and held accountable. The planner, which includes features like a scripture of the month and a prayer requests page, is sure to get your mind and soul right for 2022.
2. Prosper Planner (@prosperplanner)
Prosper Planner is a Christian stationary brand focused on setting and executing goals that are God-given. The 2022 planner features trackers of all kinda including a financial tracker, love & care tracker, and habit tracker.
3. Plan Her (@planhers.co)
If you’re not starting your calendar at the start of the new year, or are generally not ready to commit to a dated calendar, try this undated one from Plan Her that includes a monthly quote and self-care trackers.
4. Sysi & Co. (@sysiandco)
To keep your planner protected and looking sleek, consider a leather jacket cover and organizer from Sysi and Co that’s available for pre-order starting November 17th.
5. Ivory Paper Co. (@ivorypaperco)
Ivory Paper Co helps you stay organized with personalized planners, stationery & stickers. The brand’s best-selling planner is their all-in-one planner, but you should definitely check out their other options if they apply to you—like their teacher planner, academic planner, and content creator planner!
6. The Vibe Planner (@thevibeplanner)
This is a business planner that’s specially designed to help you cut through your tasks. Like the name of the planner says, it truly is a vibe.

8. Be Rooted Co. (@berootedco)

9. Journal for Black Women by Viv V. Williams
This 52 week- lined journal for black women has a monthly theme, like Rest or Self-Love, plus related weekly positive affirmations. Your spirit will be uplifted and you’ll start your day blissfully, with this journal emphasizing your mental & emotional self-care!
10. Inside Then Out (@insidetheout)
Inside Then Out wants to help you on your self-development journey and give you tools for more intentional modern living. The name “Inside Then Out” represents prioritizing what’s inside first. This journal will help you take time to reflect and realign yourself with your goals, positive habits, and effective mindsets.
That’s it for this year’s list of Black-owned planners and journals, but be sure to check out last year’s list as well. I hope you support a Black-owned business, but most importantly, I hope 2022 is sweet for all of us.
