more soulful projects? cuter callout blocks, 🧨Product Hunt Launch🧨 + british vogue
By Frances Odera Matthews  • Issue #2 • View online
Hi hi! 
It’s Frances from The Notion Bar back again sprinkling your inbox with musings on Notion & life

First thing’s first, I launched my journal on Product Hunt today & would love your support here 🙏🏾
Never knew building a journal would be such a vulnerable project - the fact that 342+ of you are using it blows my mind. Thank you for all you kind feedback & support
If this week was a GIF, it would be:
The law of attraction has truly been attracting . I’m opting out of hardcore hustle culture and opting into going with the flow
Mini-Journal Update:
Lots of ideas brewing this month - can’t wait for it all to come into Fruition & share with you all!
Here's what's on my mind:

I *really* want to start seeing more culture-based @NotionHQ projects this year

Like, I get it, habit/goal trackers etc are cool but the community is saturated with these imo

Notion is *so much more* - it's a great way to share stuff people connect emotionally with https://t.co/Tt5Tdoz6Xs
The Notion community is amazing, however I feel like the community groups are starting to fill up with ‘habit trackers’ and ‘task managers’.
Notion is soooo much more than that - this year, I’d love to see more projects based around pop-culture/things that inspire us like fashion or music. For example, I built this template based on British Vogue’s new cover celebrating black models 👇🏾
Some other cool things!
New Template
I flipped British Vogue’s new cover into a Notion template with a database for each model. You can download and re-use this for a team profile page - if you do use it, I’d love to see!
If you’d like to be an affiliate for any of my templates (who doesn’t loveee passive income), you can sign up here

@NotionHQ Will be possible to move blocks inside simple tables in notion? That would crack my daily routine all organize everything on a whole new level! Here is a mockup https://t.co/K58pRDBpVS

@NotionHQ is there a way to remove/hide the calculate row at the bottom of tables? Thanks!
Trendz + Predictions

🧨 Prediction:

This year, @NotionHQ will start to seep outside the 'typical' tech crowd and we will get a larger variety of products

Influencer templates to sell will be a thing
(& I'll hopefully partner to build some)
