Dear Diary, today Stevie and Tessa did an amazing podcast on journalling. It was inspired by a listener suggestion, and the aforementioned listener wrote several detailed questions which they worked through in order and found to be a particularly helpful structure. They discussed bullet journalling, whether you need a nice notebook, Tessa's fears over being arrested for a murder she did not commit, and what pen to use. A great day.
