2022 Mid-Year Company Update

2022 Mid-Year Company Update

Post-it with this year written out

Hey #PashFam, 

Can you believe we’re over halfway through 2022?! Here at Passion Planner we are on a mission to help as many people as possible live more intentionally. Even with that mission we find ourselves caught up in a whirlwind of life wondering where all of our time has gone. 

Flipping through the pages of my planner I am filled with so much pride and joy for what our team and community has accomplished together. I think that is one of my favorite benefits about using a planner. My planner becomes a catalog of the good that life has given me and the bad that I have been able to overcome. 
We decided to start writing these company updates to give a little summary of things we’ve been working on. I hope that these updates make you feel good about being a part of our journey, and that you feel how much we appreciate your support. We really couldn’t do this without you.

I can’t believe it’s been almost 9 years since that first Kickstarter campaign. What once started as me shipping planners out of my parents' garage, to a company helping more than 1,000,000 people live more intentionally worldwide, take it from me that it doesn’t have to be perfect, it just has to start. 

Huge virtual hugs,  
Angelia “Angel” Trinidad
CEO and Founder of Passion Planner

Our team missed connecting with the #PashFam in-person, and for the first time since 2020, our team was able to table again at San Diego Pride 2022! This year we were hosted by the San Diego Queer APIMEDA (Asian Pacific Islander Middle Eastern Desi American) Coalition. This coalition is helping to build capacity and leaders within the LGBTQ+ APIMEDA community to promote connectivity, combat stereotypes and racism, and mobilize civic and economic power. 

Geminelle, Marissa, and Chels from our Community Relations Team along with some local volunteers passed out over 800 Passion Planner Dailies to those celebrating at SD Pride! 

Held our Passion Planner Team Retreat 2022 at Disneyland!

Retreat week is something our team looks forward to every year and this was the first time since 2019 that we were able to have over 90% of our team together for some in-person team bonding! From affirming team building activities, company reflections, competitive minute-to-win-it games, and venturing all the way to Disneyland’s California Adventure, this was a team retreat for the books. 

Launched our Bulk Sales Program offering huge discounts to nonprofits, businesses and retailers alike!
