Build a calendar that still works on your hardest days
A guide to making your own calendar board with doors. Tasks wait behind the door, and the front says when to come back... your 'til when,' like "when this flare ends."
Tasks, decisions, worries, and ideas can keep asking for your attention … even when there’s nothing you can do with them yet.
Regain the peace and control that even a ‘perfect’ calendar steals from you … you’ll be surprised when you realize the true cost.
Put them out of sight, with a reminder of when to come back.
Imagine if you could…
keep an unfinished thought without keeping it in front of you … knowing where the details are and what will bring you back to them.
have return cues that align with YOU, instead of rigid dates in fixed boxes … because “after the email arrives” and “when I have a strong day” are not the same as “Tuesday the 10th.”
make room for what you need today … even if what you need is to work on something else, enjoy an idea, or REST.
find a seamless system that recognizes that your body and/or life may not obey traditional deadlines …
Who I am & Why this matters so much to me
Tamera Stewart
When I was little, my grandmother JoJo made guided meditations on cassette tapes. The one I loved had “Relaxation by JoJo” written on it in her handwriting.
During difficult years of my childhood, I listened to it at her house on Friday nights. She guided me to imagine putting a worry behind a big, heavy door and closing it until later.
I held on to that image. As I got older, I began giving different ‘doors’ different meanings for later. Some things had to wait for an answer. Some needed another person to act first. Some were ideas I wanted to return to when I had room for them.
I also live with chronic pain and a body whose capacity can change from one day to the next. A calendar can tell me what date it is. It can tell me what the world tells me I have to complete by a certain day. But, it cannot guarantee that I can handle a particular task on that date. Seeing everything I had not finished assigned to an upcoming day could leave me feeling overwhelmed, before the day even began.
So I made the imagined doors physical.
I write what I want to keep behind a door and a return cue on the outside. I say clearly what I’m setting aside and until when. Then I close it. If the thought comes back while I’m resting, I can picture the words I wrote and see myself closing that same door again.
My first board has wrinkles and uneven edges. It was useful before it was polished. JoJo taught me practical skills as well as that meditation, and it feels right to pass this on to you so you can make it with your own hands.
The feeling and concept is simple: knowing it’s THERE, but not “HERE.”
Behind the door holds the details. The outside tells you when to return.
Introducing… JoJo’s Doors: Make It & Use It
Make a small board with doors that give waiting tasks, decisions, concerns, and ideas a place of their own.
Write the details behind a door. Write a cue on the outside that tells you when to return. Close it, knowing you can find what you kept when that cue applies.
Begin with one door. Many design and material options … choose what suits you best!
The board can be changed as often as your life changes.
Module 1: Meet JoJo’s Doors
Know it’s there… without having it all in front of you.
Discover how a door from my grandmother’s meditation and craft materials laying around the house can become something you can make and use.
Understand the simple arrangement: details behind the door, a ‘til when’ reminder on the outside.
See how “later” can fit your life, including the days your mind and/or body has other plans.
Meet the story behind the doors, from my grandmother’s meditation to the imperfect board I made decades later.
Learn the rule that keeps the method honest: closing a door means “kept for later,” not “finished.”
Module 2: Make Your Doors
Make something that fits your life… with room for imperfect edges.
Create your own board with simple, inexpensive materials. (I used a cereal box)
Make it manageable by starting with just one door.
Have something you can change and reuse as you discover what works for you.
Use the “good enough to use” check before worrying about neat edges or a perfect finish. My first board had wrinkles and still did its job.
Module 3: Use Your First Door
Put one real thought in its place and give it a way back. Give yourself permission to set something aside.
Write enough behind the door that you will know what you meant when you reopen it.
Choose a cue that fits the actual situation: “after the second estimate arrives,” “following the appointment,” or “during a strong day.”
Give the act of closing a door meaning, with a way back when/if it's time, and a backup plan if/when the thought returns.
Say what you are doing if it helps: “I’m closing the door on this until ___.” Then physically close it.
Use private shorthand if you want. No one else needs to read or understand what is behind your door.
Module 4: Reopen, Reset, and Reuse
Come back to a choice when the cue applies… and decide what happens next.
Return with room to consider what makes sense now.
Adjust when your energy, information, or priorities change.
Find a way forward when something keeps getting postponed.
Begin again after a break, without having to catch up on the whole board.
If the thought comes back early, remind yourself where you kept it. You can picture closing the same door again … or open it early if something truly has changed.
Let’s talk numbers…
The regular price of JoJo’s Doors will be $49.
But that's not the price you'll be paying today.
You see...
The page you're seeing right now is the first time I have put this information together. I'm not sure I can give my personal attention to more than 25-30 people who will buy this in the founding stage.
And I want you to get results...
So I'll be giving you the course for a fraction of that price. My goal is to see if I can share my process and teach this method. It’s important to me that you benefit from JoJo’s Doors and begin seeing possibilities to make your calendar less stressful and have a place to ‘put down’ some of what you are carrying. If I can, then I’ll start selling it for $49.
If not...
Then I'll rethink how best to share it ... for now it's a board you make yourself, because the way you build it is where it starts to help.
But right now, while I am learning how to best share this process … I'm selling it for:

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
No. My first board has wrinkles and uneven edges. Make a door you can use; you can refine it later if you want to.
You can remind yourself that the details are behind the door and picture closing it again. The guided relaxation offers one way to practice that. You can also reopen a door early whenever the situation calls for it.
No. It means you have kept the details and chosen when to revisit them. When the cue applies, open the door and decide what comes next. Feeling a little room to breathe after closing it is okay; the return cue keeps that feeling distinct from completing the task.
No. The $17 offer is a course teaching you to make and use your own. You choose and provide the materials.
No. It might be an event, information you are waiting for, another step that needs to happen first, or a level of energy or capacity. Use a date when a date truly matters.
JoJo’s Doors itself has not been studied. Research on related ideas has found that unfinished goals can keep drawing our attention, while making a specific plan for when to return can reduce that interference. Researchers have also studied external reminders and deliberately postponing engagement with a worry.
Those studies help explain why parts of this process may be useful. They do not promise that everyone will experience the board the way I do.
Optional further reading: Consider it done! Plan making can eliminate the cognitive effects of unfulfilled goals; Strategic offloading of delayed intentions into the external environment; and Worry postponement from the metacognitive perspective.
