Take a Peek Inside Recession Quest
Each page pairs a relatable “real world” Yew with a whimsical fantasy twist—because no matter how rough the economy gets, your imagination is still free.
The Hero’s Guild
A private, free Skool group where Recession Quest heroes turn in quests, swap stories, and support each other through uncertain times.
Please Note: We work hard to make The Hero’s Guild the kindest place on the internet.
Don’t bring negativity, get super political, or bring bad vibes.
There’s plenty of other places on the internet for that.

About Us
Howdy, we're Nick & Kyle, co-creators of The Hero's Journal. Since 2018, we've helped over 100,000 people become the main
character in their own story through our journals, decks, and planners.
But we're just as proud of the free quests we've made.
For example, during the global pandemic in 2020, we launched Quarantine Quest, a free group quest that made those dark
days a little lighter.
We believe everyone is the hero of their own story-and an ally in someone else's.
