About this listen

This is a book 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 book 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 book 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 listener 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 book gives the listener bite-sized steps to try incorporating over two weeks!

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Favorite book of 2019

I went into this audiobook without any expectations and it blew me away. Everything is actionable. Everything makes sense. It even made me emotional in the marriage chapter. I will definitely listen to it and even buy the hard copy to go through the steps. Great job, Kate!

Genius

I loved this book. One of the first personal development books I have read that actually gave me something I can use to CHANGE my behaviors. Tactical, practical and makes so much sense to me! I’m listening to it again to make sure I got all the details and have fully implemented the free tools online to help me help myself!

Inspiring book!

Overall, this book was well written. It was filled with lots of valuable personal insight, experiences and tons of advice. I plan on going back to take more notes about all the excersicies she suggests. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

Life changing

I’ve tried every time management system out there— none were sustainable. What Kate teaches is elegant, research based, and the only system I’ve ever heard about that is built around how women’s bodies work. The concepts in this book (and the Origin Community) have really been a complete game changer for me. I now work 3 days a week and more than tripled my revenue from last year. It works and it’s life changing. Dive into this book with an open mind.

Exactly what I needed to hear

This was exactly what I needed right now. Straight forward advice that sounds counterintuitive, but makes so much sense in practice. I’m only starting to implement the advice, but can already feel my perspective shifting and my anxiety lifting.

Sooo nice

This book was such an oasis in the desert. Everything I've been doing is in here, just in a more understandable way, I just cried in multiple parts. Loved it, loved it, loved it
