What's Inside
Weekly
Offering compartmentalized spaces for tasks and priorities, appointments and schedules, food and fitness, daily habit and sleep tracking, shopping and “not-to-do” lists, the 30 weekly dashboards form the beating heart of the Purpose Planner. Planning your week in this manner does away with catch-all daily to-do lists and gives you so much more scope and scale to visualize what to focus on.
Monthly
6 monthly spreads provide a holistic view of your monthly goals, schedules and reflections. Connect your roles and goals to the projects and priorities that will define your month, pencil in your travel and meeting schedules and acknowledge your wins, learning, memories and affirmations that keep you motivated and focused.
Annual
Use the non-dated Annual Notes spread to capture ideas or plans for projects or events in the months ahead. The Annual Key Dates template provides a bird’s eve view of special events, birthdays, public holidays, upcoming work travel or vacation plans.
Roles & Goals
Establish your purpose, not just for work but across all streams of your life. By giving each role you play a title (parent, entrepreneur, career role, mentor, etc), and setting actionable goals against each role, you anchor your priorities and set out the actions and reasons to focus on what you care about the most.
Lists
Use the templates provided to set out your reading and bucket list activities in advance. By doing so, you are much more likely to prepare effectively and block the time needed to make it happen.
Notes
Each weekly spread is followed up with two numbered blank dot grid pages to capture your notes, drawings or writing for that week. Offering a blend of both structured planning templates and free form note pages, the Purpose Planner includes additional note pages in the back for more note taking.

“We are so grateful for this awesome tool to help our participants align more closely to their values.“
“I work at The Command Purpose Foundation, a 501-C3 non-profit that helps veteran women rediscover purpose after serving in the military. The purpose planner has enabled us to better support our participants as they apply for jobs, relocate, and navigate life's challenges more purposefully. We are so grateful for this awesome tool to help our participants align more closely to their values and give them the ability to chart out the next six months. This is by far the best holistic planner in the market!“
Courtney Campbell from PureWow.com
“The result is a handy planning tool that can better help you evaluate what’s most important to you.”
“Filled with motivational quotes, bucket lists, productivity tips and more, this planner goes above and beyond goal setting and scheduling. The Roterunner has a wellness twist, complete with space to enter in morning and night routines, habit trackers and self-care checklists. The result is a planning tool that helps you evaluate what’s most important to you as a human being—and how you should best spend your time.“
Dominique Pariso from NYMag.com
“It goes beyond being a planner, and is really a clarifying tool for understanding how you want to invest your time.”
Author and time-management coach Elizabeth Grace Saunders told us about this planner that combines the scheduling elements you’d want in a regular planner with the goal-setting elements you might look for in a journal. In addition to its gridded weekly (and month and year at-a-glance) pages, this has space for you to write down both your roles and goals as a partner, employee, and friend. It even invites you to track your daily habits according to different priorities, allowing users to tackle their goals in a more holistic way.
Frequently Asked Questions
What makes the Purpose Planner different?
The structure of the Purpose Planner centres around connectivity and holistic planning. Where most planners simply provide space for schedules and activity, the Purpose Planner goes several layers deeper, guiding you to set compartmentalised goals for the next 6 months and then connecting and tracking them across your life, to your learning, rewards, monthly projects and weekly tasks.
It is also laid out to flow the way we work with each month a self-contained section starting with the monthly spread, followed by 5 weekly dashboards separated by blank note pages.
A key feature behind the design is that you shouldn’t have to carry around a planner and a notebook. The Purpose Planner doubles up as both with 93 blank numbered, dot-grid note pages.
What is the size of the notebook?
The notebook is A5 (5.8”x8.3”).
We chose this size as it provides sufficient space to write without being too big and bulky. The soft cover makes it a little lighter, more flexible and more compact while the hardcover is for those that prefer a sturdier choice.
What is the best way to optimize the weekly dashboard?
The weekly planning spread is at the heart of the Purpose Planner and is designed to be a 1-stop strategy dashboard for the week ahead. We recommend setting out your priorities, daily habits and schedules for the week on a Sunday evening or Monday morning. What this does is give you clarity about your priorities and focuses you on the tasks, routines and relationships that move the needle in your life.
You will find yourself minimising “busy-work” while taking care of those annoying admin items that you typically procrastinate. The weekly dashboard also speaks to you. The sections that are left blank make you aware of the gaps in your life and it’s up to you to fill them in.

- ABAlana B.Verified BuyerReviewingPurpose Planner A5 Navy / HardI recommend this productRated 5 out of 5 stars1 week agoMy favorite planner
I've consistently used the Purpose Planner for almost two years now. They layout is versatile and has helped me customize my method for keeping myself on track both in my professional and personal life. Customer Service was tremendously helpful in resolving an issue I had when an order of mine was damaged in shipping (which was of no fault of their own). Already looking forward to opening a new planner for the second half of the year. Thanks for a great product and service!
RRoterunner1 week agoThank you so much for your continued support and thoughtful words, Alana! 💛 We’re so glad the Purpose Planner has been a steady companion in both your personal and professional life — and that our team could assist when things didn’t go as planned. We're excited for you to crack open a fresh one for the second half of the year — here's to even more purpose, progress, and joy ahead!
- JRJean R.Verified BuyerReviewingPurpose Planner A5 Navy / SoftI recommend this productRated 5 out of 5 stars1 week agoPerfect planning and journaling in one
Love that it’s customizable and still highly structured. The framing of roles is extremely helpful.
RRoterunner1 week agoWe're absolutely delighted to hear how you're enjoying the perfect balance of structure and flexibility in your A5 planner, Jean. Thank you for your review!
- DDianaVerified ReviewerReviewingPurpose Planner A5I recommend this productRated 4 out of 5 stars1 month agoA REVIEW BUT ALSO A SUGGESTION (and a plea)
This is the first time I used this planner in my life, and after years of trying to find the best planner I found it here. But I have some issues. I don't write that much on the dotted pages of the notebook, honestly I just use the ones after each month or at the end. I have my own personal journal apart and the size is enough to fit everything. I feel bad because I think it is a lot of wasted paper in my notebook and it looks empty (tho its completely filled up on the weekly pages), I would prefer to have my 12 months in a single planner and less dotted blank pages (it also doesn't make sense to me to rewrite my yearly plans, and I think we can handle more pages, I would pay for that).
Can you please please please make a new edition without blank pages every week and 12 months??? It would make this purpose planner PERFECT.
Thank you
RRoterunner1 week agoThank you so much for your thoughtful review and suggestion, Diana! We're thrilled to hear that you've found your perfect planner after years of searching. It means a lot to us that the Purpose Planner A5 has become your go-to planning solution.
We truly appreciate your detailed feedback about the dotted pages and monthly layout. Your suggestion about creating a 12-month version with fewer blank pages is valuable input for our design team. We're always looking to improve our products to better serve our customers' needs, and feedback like yours helps shape future editions.
It's wonderful to know that you're making full use of the weekly pages while maintaining your separate journaling practice. We understand your perspective about wanting to maximize the planner's functionality and minimize unused space.
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience and ideas with us. Your feedback is incredibly helpful as we continue to evolve our planner designs.
- TMTerry M.Verified ReviewerReviewingPurpose Planner A5I recommend this productRated 5 out of 5 stars1 month agoAwesome Customer Service along with a Great Product
I have spent several years using a product that was "almost" what I needed, then that company decided to drop the version I was using. UGH... I searched and came across the perfect planner for my needs made by Rote Runner and I easily slipped into a better routine. I liked it so much I ordered the replacement early (60days) before I was going to need it and there it sat on my shelf. That is until last week when I opened it to prep for the shift to the new book only to realize that I had received a softback copy instead of the hardback that I had ordered. I reached out and explained the situation and even though they could have easily said that I waited too long, their response was quick. They apologized for the mistake and had a hardback replacement in the mail the next day. GREAT Customer Service and the Planner is perfect, I highly recommend
RRoterunner1 week agoThank you so much for this wonderful review, Terry! 💛 We're truly touched by your kind words and delighted that you've found the perfect planner after your search. It means the world to hear how seamlessly the Purpose Planner has fit into your routine, even improving upon your previous planning experience. We're especially grateful for your understanding regarding the mix-up with the cover type, and we're so glad we could quickly make it right. Your satisfaction is our top priority, and we believe everyone deserves their perfect planning companion. Thank you for choosing us and for taking the time to share your experience — here's to many more organized and purposeful days ahead! ✨

About to order my fourth one in a row. Have been using analog planners for decades and this one maintains its relevance to the way lives are lived these days. Dotted note pages between weeks ensures that a second notebook is not needed. Highly recommend.
