What is the difference between the MOM and the WOW Diary?
Read about the differences in our blog post
How did the MOM Diary come about & why is it such a good planner?
In 2010 Alison Deary, a mom to 4 sons, was faced with the challenge of her kids all being at different schools. Because she had a big gap between her first two and second two kids, she ended up with one in pre-school, one in primary school, one in high school and the oldest at college.
That meant a lot of careful planning, dealing with 4 different institutions, school meetings all being on different dates, sports and other activities happening at each of the schools and then keeping track of tests, exams, projects, cakes sales, tuck shop duties, social activities………and the list goes on!
Apart from that, Alison was running a business from home, having staff to manage and fitting in her own work hours too.
As if that was not enough, having given up smoking and the weight starting to pack on, Alison had taken up running quite seriously and at the same time joined her younger kids at their karate class.
There was a lot going on for her back then and she needed to find a way to manage all of this in a way that would keep her from getting totally overwhelmed. After looking around for a suitable woman’s diary to do her planning in, and finding nothing, she decided to create a diary that would help her with the challenge of managing the household, kids and work and her own personal commitments, all at the same time.
Being a goal driven person, she also wanted to incorporate her goals into the diary, so that they could become as much part of her life as her chores were. Even her daily gratitude was given a prime spot in the diary.
How can the MOM Diary (woman’s diary) help YOU with planning
The MOM (Most Organised Mother) 2023 Diary system incorporates many helpful solutions to organisation, time management, budgeting, meal planning & recipes, record keeping and convenience. All in a simple, effective and easy to use format.
13 Years later, the MOM Diary is still an invaluable tool, and the woman’s diary of choice, to so many women in and around South Africa. And one of the bonuses is this is a locally manufactured product, which means not only is it helping moms stay organised, it is also helping the local economy.
What has changed in the 2023 MOM Diary?
Although the basis of the MOM Diary will probably never change, i.e. the layout of the daily pages, we decided with the 2023 Diary, to make a few changes – either to make it aesthetically more beautiful, or to make your planning experience more effective.
Because we want to keep this woman’s diary looking fresh every year, we have made subtle font and design changes in the 2022 Diary. We have Howard to thank for these beautiful fresh ideas.
As always, we come up with 12 new exciting recipes each year. We are really trying to cater to everyone’s needs with some vegetarian, vegan, gluten free, etc. We hope we have nailed it!
Our Monday motivation is handpicked by Alison each year. 2023 features a lot of self love and self kindness quotes, clearly just what we all need during this time that we are going through in the world.
We really hope that you love your 2023 Diary and would appreciate any feedback that you want to send our way.
