Catheryn had a prayer journal idea she literally sketched out on paper before she ever touched a design program. Here's how she went from that sketch to a successful Kickstarter — and what she learned about faith, fear, and following through.

Today I am sitting down with Catheryn, founder of Heartfelt Pages and Print School alumni. In this episode of the Dream Printing Podcast, Catheryn shares the story behind A Letter to God — a lined vegan leather prayer journal built around the simple format of Dear God to In Jesus' Name, Amen — and how eight years of personal journaling became a published product.

You'll hear why Catheryn chose a Kickstarter to fund her first print run (and the faith conviction behind that decision), what the difference between print on demand and working with a quality manufacturer actually felt like in her hands, and the mindset shifts she had to work through around pricing, marketing, and putting herself out there. Her reminder that faith is an action verb is one you'll want to write down.

Edna was a trial lawyer running on empty — until a medical leave forced her to actually learn what self-care means. What she discovered became the Serene Weekly Planner, and she built it postpartum during nap times.

Today I am sitting down with Edna, founder of Serene Paper Co. and Print School alumni. In this episode of the Dream Printing Podcast, Edna shares how six years of high-pressure trial work, a mental health crisis, and a trip to Japan's stationery aisles all collided into her first product — the Serene Weekly Planner, a self-care focused undated planner built around honoring your energy and planning with intention.

You'll hear the real story behind what self-care actually looks like beyond bubble baths, how Edna built a capacity assessment into the planner to help women evaluate what they can realistically take on, and why she designed the daily check-in around energy and stress ratings before the to-do list ever starts. If you're the woman who thinks she doesn't have time for this kind of thing, Edna would say that's exactly who this planner is for.

Today I am teaching you the five most common mistakes new planner makers make. In this episode of the Dream Printing Podcast, Polly walks through each mistake she sees again and again from new creators entering the luxury paper product space — including ones she made herself when starting Horatio Printing in 2014.

You'll learn why skipping your audience definition kills the product before it launches, why print on demand is a trap for anyone trying to build a profitable brand, how to price your product using the right cost of goods formula, what separates intentional design from cheap design, and why August is already too late to launch a 2027 dated planner. Whether you're just starting out or you've already hit one of these walls, this episode gives you the clarity to course-correct before it costs you.
