The Story Behind the Evergreen Planner Method

Growing up, we’ve always been as different as night and day. But when we both became mothers in early 2016, one conviction bound us together: we didn’t want life just happening to us.

We were bringing children into a world rushing with hectic schedules, crushing deadlines, and digital distractions that threatened to wash away every sacred hour necessary to cultivate the depths of truth, goodness, and beauty that God had called us as mothers to give them.

Our own mother had taught us to refuse the lie that rich, wholehearted, connected living was a thing of the past. She also taught us to take personal responsibility very seriously.

With our faith in Christ as our north star, we came to understand that His people slowing down to cultivate deeply intentional lives is an important part of His goals for the future.

And in terms of that, He had given us a lot of big dreams for life. Accomplishing our goals would take hard work, discipline, and perseverance. Time is our only unrenewable resource—a profound gift to be stewarded with intention. These are things we wanted to teach our children as well.

How could we consistently, proactively build into our most life-giving goals while effectively managing daily responsibilities and navigating the unexpected turns of life?

Through years of trial and error, research, and working with women around the world who nurtured the same vision for their lives, the Evergreen Planning Method emerged as the answer to beautifully conquering the overwhelm of the modern world with clarity and peace.

With a simple habit of stepping away from the noise, pouring a cup of coffee in silence, and putting pen to paper—the Evergreen Planning Method brings cohesion to everything God has entrusted to your care: your home, your children, your work, your calling.

The Evergreen Planning Method is time-management that honors you as a whole person—not a machine. It helps you heal your relationship with time and productivity; to get ahold of the unique way God created you to contribute to the work He is doing in the world; to filter your commitments according to your truest priorities; and live with a constant view of the bigger picture.

The Evergreen Planning Method focuses on reclaiming your time for what truly matters—and finally following through on the vision God’s placed on your heart.

When the torrents of modernity threaten to crowd out every sacred goal you cherish—the Evergreen Planning Method will be there to cut through the noise and show you that God has given you enough time for everything He is calling you to do.
