For me in my own life, I wrote this book because I struggled so much with hyper productivity

and an obsession with getting things done and then I had two children and well, the

one kid before I wrote the book but anyway, and I was shocked by the amount of pressure

that my identity had wrapped up in being productive and being busy and I began to look at that

And we'll talk about this later maybe but…

During that pregnancy, I cut my work hours about in half and also during the first year

of motherhood, way even less than that and we had a sick baby, I had postpartum insomnia

I mean it was a very messy year and yet we have the same results in our business and

so I thought, well if I could get the same results working half this amount, what was

I doing my entire adult life being obsessed with the 40 hour or 50 hour workweek, which

by the way, is completely this arbitrary number that was set up during the industrial revolution

based on how machinery works and it's not evidence-based at all and of course we'll

Is this about getting a nanny and a housekeeper and blah, blah, blah.

Early in the book promotion process I was on a podcast and she started off the podcast

saying, well, I was very surprised to say that I really loved your book and I was like,

And she said, because I assumed, by the title, I was very triggered by the title, and I assumed

that what you were going to be talking about was exactly that, hiring a nanny, getting

Our culture has raised us to believe that the more we do, the more valuable we are,

and I am still a product of that culture.

I still want to get great results and I know your listeners do, I know most of the world
