    [[REWIND]] [172] How to Get Aligned with Your Priorities and Reach Your Goals with 15 Minutes

    [[REWIND]] [172] How to Get Aligned with Your Priorities and Reach Your Goals with 15 Minutes

    Do you feel like there is never enough time in the day to get things done? It doesn't help when you hear gurus tell you to prioritize it and you will get it done. You have so many priorities, and it can get pretty stressful trying to sort things out as a mom. My guest, Cara Harvey, is here to help.
    In this episode, we unpack some of the topics in her new book, The 15-Minute Formula. This book is what you need because it is a productivity book geared toward moms. Typically, most productivity books are written by men, which is excellent, but they don't consider many of the struggles of us moms. 
    In addition, Cara shares her story and how she even got started with A Purpose Driven Mom. And then what led her to write the book, The 15-Minute Formula. She also talked about priorities with us and how to use micro priorities, which was something new that I learned from her. And then, lastly, we talked about seasons. How can we be more aligned in our life by knowing what season we're in and setting things up so that we can be more aligned with the season we're in versus trying to jam-pack our days, weeks, and months with things and burn ourselves out? So if you are looking for different ways of being more productive, you must listen to this episode.

@kimstewinspired ,

Happiness doesn’t mean perfect (thank God)

So thankful Toni-Ann and her guests encourage us to be real happy moms, and stop all the comparison of what moms around us are doing. I loved her episodes with Monica Swanson, on raising teens, and Dr. Chloe on special needs. Both issues near and dear to this momma’s heart. ❤️Kim Stewart | Book Marketing Mania for Christian Authors

Lili Knox 💜 ,
