I started with Silk and Sonder four years ago when I realized that I needed something to help me work through some difficult emotions. At the time, it sounded like a program worth trying and it was also good to use as a planner. I never imagined how important one seemingly obscure decision would change my life. I have grown emotionally, dealt with trauma, and found a supportive community that is a constant encouragement to me. I look forward to getting my journal each month with a new theme for continued growth. The activities in each journal, the daily rituals, the daily affirmations, the weekly socials, and the support of the community is astounding! Silk and Sonder is an important part of my life which I have shared with others because I think most anyone could benefit from using it.

The versatility and joy this company…
The versatility and joy this company offers with its products and services are truly breathtaking. My own journey years ago began with using it simply as a daily planner for work, then evolved into a space for reflection, then a place to connect with others, then a place to reconnect with my creativity, then a place to self reflect very deeply and heal. Today it’s my sanctuary and my mirror- helping me consciously align with my purpose and to keep uncovering the best within myself so that I can nurture my relationships and my community. It’s one of the best decisions I’ve ever made, and I’m so grateful to continue to make it every day.
On the operational end of things, the Silk & Sonder team are to be commended for their wonderful customer service, quick response times to emails, and personalized approach to their customers. Totally love this brand and it’s team!

Helpful for all the ages and stages of life!
I began using Silk + Sonder journals as the world emerged from the COVID pandemic—a time that also coincided with my early retirement. The timing felt serendipitous, as I was stepping into a completely new chapter of life. I didn’t want to feel “done”… I wanted to flourish.
The monthly themes have been incredibly helpful in guiding me through this “second act,” showing me how to embrace retirement with vitality, purpose, and continued personal growth.
One of my favorite aspects is the fresh start each month brings. The weekly planning pages have helped me establish rhythms and routines that were missing once I left the traditional workforce. I’ve learned that I need structure to feel productive, and these pages give me the gentle nudge I need to begin each week with intention—so I don’t end up letting precious days slip by.
I also love the journal prompts and activity pages. They provide a thoughtful, guided framework for reflection and encourage me to live authentically and with purpose. Each month introduces new, research-backed tools, which keeps the experience both engaging and meaningful.
Another highlight is the virtual community. Sonder Club feels like a refreshing alternative to typical social media—more “bloom-scrolling” than doom-scrolling. The real-time socials are uplifting, supportive, and help me stay accountable and connected.
Perhaps the best part is the flexibility. Each week, I can take exactly what I need. Some weeks, I rely heavily on trackers to stay focused and productive. Other times, I give myself permission to slow down and focus on self-care and reflection.
Overall, Silk + Sonder has become a valuable companion in helping me navigate and truly enjoy this new phase of life.

Been with Silk & Sonder for 3 years
Been with Silk & Sonder for 3 years. I knew it was a good thing for me when I started. Now it's a GREAT thing for me. Working on and loving the challenges for myself has been a huge positive. Now I'm connecting more and more with the community through the Silk & Sonder Socials. Those are absolutely amazing! And if I miss one, there's a private YouTube channel with the recordings.

More than a Bullet Journal
I've been a Silk + Sounder subscriber since 2019. Here are three reasons I continue to be a member:
1) Simple weekly and daily format that is adaptable for my intentions and goals
2) Lovely monthly themes that support overall well-being (love the fresh start of a new journal each month)
3) A welcoming community of women to connect with within the Sonder Club section of the app or online via Sounder Social Zoom sessions

I’ve really enjoyed being able to use…
I’ve really enjoyed being able to use as much or as little of the journal and social meetings based on what I need. I also love that it’s digital and I can use it on my iPad

Silk + Sonder has been a game changer…
Silk + Sonder has been a game changer in my mental health and self-care. I’ve been a customer off-and-on for four years. I love this product and I love the support it gives me in building a life I love. I’m currently going through a very tough time with my husband’s 12 months of unemployment. Silk + Sonder has been an excellent resource in my tool chest for navigating the stressful year. I wouldn’t be able to love my husband and family nearly as well through this year were it not for the time I’ve put into S+S. I cannot recommend these journals enough—they add richness and growth to my days!
