About this listen
Time is short. Here's how to invest it in what matters most.
As a busy mom, pulled in many directions, you've felt it: There's too much to do, and not enough time to do it.
It seems like the only solution is to hustle harder. But there's a far better way to manage your time so that you can simplify and enjoy your life.
Crystal Paine—mom of six, bestselling author, and entrepreneur—delivers a real-world, no-nonsense guide to keeping you sane and doing the things you love most.
In The Time-Saving Mom, Crystal takes you inside her days to help you: adopt an easy-to-implement four-step system to organize and simplify your life; create morning and evening routines that set you up for success; learn time-saving hacks to help you find time for pursuing your personal passions, friendships, exercise, and better sleep; and carve out sacred time for God and your family.
You don't have to be a productivity queen to maximize your time. Instead, you can be a time-saving mom, investing in what matters most.

Sissy offers you practical, well-researched tools that will make a difference in your life—and the lives of your children.

Most lifestyle books for women are saying one of two things: "Hustle!" or "Slow down!" We are either prodded into endless activity and productivity or told that what we really need is to prioritize rest, relaxation, and simply "being." Is it any wonder we feel torn in every direction, worried we're missing the opportunities God has placed before us while at the same time feeling guilty that we're doing too much? Into this confusion comes Heather MacFadyen's empowering message to simply occupy your God-given space—a Hebrew definition of humility.

If you’re struggling to stay on top of your to-do list, you probably have a good reason: anxiety, fatigue, depression, ADHD, or lack of support. For therapist KC Davis, the birth of her second child triggered a stress-mess cycle. The more behind she felt, the less motivated she was to start. She didn’t fold a single piece of laundry for seven months. One life-changing realization restored her sanity—and the functionality of her home: You don’t work for your home; your home works for you.

Yet a home with too much stuff is difficult to maintain, so where do we begin? Add in paralyzing emotional attachments and constant life challenges, and it can feel almost impossible to make real decluttering progress.

When New York Times bestselling author Jon Acuff got curious about tapping into his full potential, he launched a research study with Dr. Mike Peasley. They asked more than three thousand people if they felt they were living up to their full potential. Fifty percent of people reported that 50 percent of their full potential is untapped. That means half of us are walking around with half-lives. No wonder Twitter is so grumpy.

Maybe you knew how much something would hurt, but you said it anyway because it felt good in the moment. Maybe you’re fighting a habit of complaining or yelling, when you really want to be a person who speaks with kindness and patience. Or maybe you stay silent because you’re never quite sure what to say. Whatever your “maybe” may be, you are in the right place. As a wife, mom, and the creator of the popular Modern Farmhouse Family Instagram, Sarah Molitor has learned firsthand that yes, words can hurt―but they can also help and heal.

I love following Crystal on Instagram and this book was perfect! The practical tips and simple solutions are exactly what this busy mama and business owner needed! I am already working on the resources she provides to implement her strategies and I have a feeling I’ll be re-listening to parts (if not all) of this book multiple times. Thank you, Crystal for sharing your heart & simple strategies for living a joy-filled life with order.

Same I have heard before
I do love these types of books as they are generally helpful and motivational. I didn’t find anything amazingly different here except I found too much talk about making space for religion. That aspect was overwhelming for me I get that I can turn the lesson into something else but it was still too much faith talk. Great for people who love that, but I am not one of them.
