About this listen

 A practical and spiritual guide for working moms to learn how to have more by doing less.

This is an audiobook for working women and mothers who are ready to release the culturally inherited belief that their worth is equal to their productivity, and instead create a personal and professional life that's based on presence, meaning, and joy. As opposed to focusing on "fitting it all in," time management, and leaning in, as so many books geared at ambitious women do, this audiobook embraces the notion that through doing less women can have--and be--more.
The addiction to busyness and the obsession with always trying to do more leads women, especially working mothers, to feel like they're always failing their families, their careers, their spouses, and themselves. This audiobook will give women the permission and tools to change the way they approach their lives and allow them to embrace living in tune with the cyclical nature of the feminine, cutting out the extraneous busyness from their lives so they have more satisfaction and joy, and letting themselves be more often instead of doing all the time.
Do Less offers the reader a series of 14 experiments to try to see what would happen if she did less in one specific way. So, rather than approaching doing less as an entire life overhaul (which is overwhelming in and of itself), this audiobook gives the reader bite-sized steps to try incorporating over 2 weeks! This audio product contains a PDF with supporting material, and the PDF is available to download.

I love learning about my body and things that can help my self development. Kate explains the cycle so easily and informatively, I’m sad I didn’t know about this when I was younger

What an incredible book, I feel seen and heard as a mother and as a woman by Kate and I know that this will be a book that I will come back to time and again for encouragement and guidance throughout motherhood. Thank you Kate, your words at the very end made me cry and I can't wait to try cyclical living from now on!

Beautiful and Life Changing!

This book had some helpful strategies for a woman in business. I am not sure whether men would find it as helpful but after tracking and working with nature it has helped release the pressure to push through. I feel this is overall a more productive way to work whilst maintaining my sanity and happiness. I have taken value from this book and implemented it.

Worth a read

This book is the easy "to do list" that I needed. I will be buying the book so I can scan the pages to really incorporate Do Less mindset :)
