How Busy Moms Can Ditch the Guilt, Say Yes to What Matters, and Conquer Their Goals

Are you tired of feeling overwhelmed, burnt out, and like there is no time for you?

As a busy mom, it can feel nearly impossible to find time to work on your goals. Between the piles of laundry, dishes in the sink, taking care of your home and the day to day demands, your to-do list can feel never ending. You feel like you barely have time to make dinner, so how are you going to find time for your goals?

This innovative book takes the approach of priority-based productivity to help busy moms learn how to create time for their goals without adding a million things to their already full to-do lists. Instead of relying on motivation, you’ll learn how to create a priority-based path that makes sense for you and your life.

I know what it feels like to have these big dreams and goals but to feel like you’ll never achieve them. You may feel stuck in motherhood and like you’re losing yourself. You desperately want to work on your goals but you feel guilty about taking any time for yourself. And even if you push past those feelings of mom guilt, your ever growing to-do list and kids’ needs seem to always jump in front of even just a few minutes for you.

Other productivity books out there will teach you to hustle. They’ll tell you that the only way to be successful is to get up at 5 a.m. or burn the midnight oil. That approach may work for some—but not for us moms.

We need a different approach. The 15 Minute Formula is that approach.

In just 15 minutes a day, you’ll learn about the five pillars of priority-based productivity:

1. Vision
2. Time Management
3. Goals
4. Habits
5. Routines

In this book, you’ll learn how to customize your day so that you can sneak in some time for yourself, while still being there as a present mom. You’ll learn how to slow things down so you can actually get more done of what matters. You’ll learn a proven method for breaking down your big dreams and goals so that instead of feeling overwhelmed, you’re excited and ready to tackle the day.

The 15 Minute Formula will cover:

• How to use seasonality of life in your goal-setting
• Why your motivation isn’t going to help you succeed
• How to use time blocking in a way that gives you flexibility and urgency
• The best way to break a bad habit for good
• How you can use 15 minutes a day to chip away at the goals that matter to you
• What to do when your family isn’t on board with your big goals
• How to ditch the mom guilt when it comes to taking time for you
• And more!

Stop putting yourself last and filling your days with everything for everyone else. It’s time to give yourself permission to dream, and create time for your goals—all while picking cheerios off the floor and tucking your kids into bed.

It is possible to manage motherhood and your goals, without the guilt and burnout. The 15 Minute Formula will get you there.

15 Minute Formula

Very motivated by Cara’s book. It makes things seem doable. Loved listening to her and I learned a lot!

Her podcast, to the next level!

If you like Cara’s purpose driven mom podcast you need this book.

Cara breaks things down to help all of us get more done! I listened to the audiobook straight through- I wouldn’t recommend doing it that way. I’m going to have to go back and do each chapter one at a time (like she intended them! 🙈)

The workbook she made for the audiobook listeners too? Omg GOLD.

I am not typically a physical book purchaser but I can tell I will want to refer back to this one again and again so I’ve ordered my copy!

Gamechanging content but missing chapter 10

Extremely helpful and logical. Love that there’s a podcast to support. But chapter 9 is repeated, and it plays where chapter 10 should be.

Life changing

Cara’s enthusiasm is infectious, and her love of the topic and “her moms” comes through in this reading of her book that contains strategies and systems that have literally changed lives - for the better.

Just what I need to hear!

Cara is an amazing coach and now an amazing author. Her book is not just another how to book bit gives the listener actual steps to take to change their productivity and feel better about getting things done. She knows what it means to be a mom and makes actual, practical sense.

Such an inspiration!

The way Cara broke everything down and explained it had aha moments popping in my head continually! I highly recommend this book for anyone struggling to "get things done"! Her formula is transforming the way I live my life, the way I view myself, and I'm already making progress!

BITE-SIZED WONDER!

I love the way the author teaches us to break the whole goal planning process into bite-sized chunks (LITERALLY 15 MINUTE CHUNKS!) And encourages us to spend some extra time in the planning phase so that we can keep chipping away at our big-picture goal. She also encourages us to leave SPACE in our plan for life to happen!

I appreciate their understanding that sometimes as busy moms, "the poop hits the fan" and encourages us to have a backup plan for days like that. I love the way she breaks down how to schedule our weeks, reflect on the process, and build habits and routines that push us closer to our goals. The audio book truly feels like having a chat with a friend.

There's a BEAUTIFUL (free) workbook to download, and each chapter ends with action steps - easy peasy 'homework' - that propel us forward with our goals! (It even includes a reading guide so you can READ THIS BOOK in 15-minute segments! I am SO going to do this breakdown with my other books!)

After reading this book, I am excited to make this next season work for me... I am so glad I bought this book - I am sure I will be referring back to it for years to come!

A Must Read for Busy Moms

If you don’t read this book, you are cheating yourself. This is a must have for busy moms who need to get more done and accomplish their goals.
