Be True to Yourself: Two Year Pocket Calendar/Planner (2026-2027)

Be true to yourself. These three simple words carry the weight of a thousand affirmations, reminding you daily that your most authentic self is your greatest gift to the world.

This beautifully designed 2026-2027 two-year pocket planner features original artwork by Sylvia "Gbaby" Cohen, showcasing a confident Black woman adorned in a flowing garment emblazoned with "Be True 2 Yourself." Her bold yellow-tinted glasses and natural hair crown celebrate self-assurance and authenticity against a striking navy and magenta background. The decorative vine motifs framing the empowering message create a visual reminder that growth and authenticity are intertwined.

This compact checkbook-style planner is your portable command center for staying organized while carrying a daily dose of inspiration.

Each month spans two pages, with clean grid layouts and a dedicated notes column, giving you space to capture thoughts, tasks, and moments of brilliance as they occur.

Beyond monthly planning, you'll find practical sections for personal information (including emergency contacts and medical details), an address book for important connections, pages dedicated to special dates you never want to forget, and additional note pages for capturing ideas and reminders. The planner includes comprehensive important dates for both 2026 and 2027, including major holidays and observances such as Juneteenth, Kwanzaa, Martin Luther King Jr. Day, and other culturally significant dates.
