This book is thoughtfully crafted to provide life lessons to children in ways that are interesting and exciting. The narrator does a fantastic job reading the text in a fun and animated tone, making it easy to stay engaged throughout. The lessons themselves offer real-world examples to help them come to life.

While my daughter is younger right now, this book helped me to understand more foundational lessons to build upon as she grows. And once she’s older, I’d certainly love for her to listen to this audiobook to fully absorb the lessons for herself.

I love this audiobook! My husband and I are currently trying to conceive our second baby, and I’ve been researching everything fertility and pregnancy extensively. Since my husband works a lot, I certainly don’t expect him to put the same amount of time into research, but I love that I now have a condensed resource I can share with him so that he can understand some of my world. I decided to give this audiobook a listen myself before recommending it to him, and I was thoroughly impressed! I particularly loved the first few chapters of the book, as I thought they did an excellent job highlighting infertility and explaining the intricacies of conception. I’ve honestly never heard any of this from a male perspective, so I found this especially refreshing. The rest of the book is just as detailed as it walks through what to expect during the pregnancy itself and the fatherhood journey afterwards. The author does a great job of ensuring the book doesn’t feel dry, sharing a mix of personal stories and relevant information. I would absolutely recommend this to any fathers-to-be or new dads hoping to support their partners a little more.

Over nine hours of sound to sleep to

This audiobook provides over nine hours of sleep sounds, allowing you to have the sounds on throughout the entire night if you choose to. I tried using this for my baby and she did fall asleep to it, although it’s hard to say whether it was faster/easier than her falling asleep to other music. Unfortunately, trying to use this for myself, I found the sounds a bit too intense to sleep to. I especially struggled with the starts of each “chapter” coming on stronger than the ends of the “chapters” before them.

I don’t know enough about the science behind these sound waves to know how they work. I would believe that they’re formulated to help you sleep deeper, but unfortunately it was too hard for me to fall asleep with them to even get to that point. However, they may work great for someone else! The sound quality was great, and the length is a big plus for anyone hoping to use it overnight.

This book does a good job of thoroughly laying out some basic time management strategies. I will say that if you've already put a decent amount of effort into optimizing workflows and figuring out how to best spend your time, the information in this book may feel too basic and not particularly helpful. However, if you're just diving into this world, I believe this is an excellent resource to help you get started—which is why I'm giving this five stars.

I particularly appreciated that the book highlighted the importance of optimizing your health—including sleep, diet, and energy. While it couldn't go in depth on these topics (which wouldn't be expected for this type of book), it does give some helpful tips for getting started in these areas as well.

Heavy focus on weight loss; does a good job explaining macros

This audiobook focuses heavily on the ways in which a high protein, low carb diet can help you to lose weight. Personally, I was hoping for more of a focus on the ways in which this diet helps with general health, but I understand that this was not the intended aim of the book. It does a great job explaining the science behind macros and why this strategy is recommended. It also suggests to strive for improvement over perfection—stating that a zero carb diet is much more likely to fail.

However, I found that this book had some logical inconsistencies as well. One that jumped out at me was the author mentioning that a zero carb diet would leave you eating vegetables. This immediately struck me as confusing since vegetables are primarily carbs and are certainly far from zero. Still, I believe the primary message of the book was strong and it provided helpful information for those exploring this diet.

The way this audiobook is laid out makes it easy to find phrases most meaningful to your situation. The book is split into two main sections: one focusing on formal work communication and one focusing on informal communication, such as chatting with colleagues. Sections are then further broken down into smaller topics, with each topic containing several related phrases. Phrases are stated in English and Spanish, and then broken down more slowly in the Spanish translation as well.

While I don't believe that listening to an audiobook to learn Spanish will be as effective as something like Duolingo, I like that this is something I can put on in the background to pick up phrases more passively. There's also an accompanying PDF which makes it easy to come back and reference phrases you may have forgotten.

I hadn’t heard the term “glow kids” prior to reading this books, but it refers to children growing up around consistent screen glow. I was really impressed with the balanced and thoughtful approach to this topic throughout the book. I love that it prioritizes a healthy relationship with your children as the guiding light throughout everything, and it also doesn’t try to suggest that 100% screen-free is best. Instead, it explains the benefits of being “technology wise” and providing meaningful technology experiences to your children.

The author of the book self-proclaims that she’s not an expert but rather another mom figuring it out as she goes. This brings a fresh perspective to the topic while simultaneously bringing in facts and research from a variety of sources. The audiobook also includes a PDF of the entire book in written formal which is a nice touch—helpful for being able to glance back at certain sections quickly. I’d certainly recommend this book to other parents struggling to determine the role technology should play in their children’s lives in this fast-paced technology-centric world.

Jam-packed with information, yet easy to navigate and understand

This book is laid out perfectly for maximum impact. While it is incredibly thorough, it doesn’t feel overwhelming because of the way it’s split up. It starts by addressing various toxic behaviors, such as gaslighting and narcissism. Each behavior has a dedicated section along with an additional "bulletpoints" section to highlight key facts. This makes it easy to go back and reference sections again as needed. Later, ways to improve personal growth are explored in a similar fashion.

Finally, the book ends with a series of worksheets, journal prompts, and meditations. Listening to worksheet instructions in an audiobook format is a bit awkward, but I still appreciated these sections being here to provoke additional thought. The meditations were also great and I can certainly see myself coming back to these.

I love that this book focuses on ways to minimize your own toxic behaviors while also highlighting ways to recognize and avoid being subjected to them from others. There's a lot of great information packed in here and I would absolutely recommend it!

This book does a great job with offering a "dieting" solution that's more sustainable long-term than most trendy diets tend to be. While the theme centers on weight loss, the author also speaks to the ways in which carb cycling will help with overall health, including building strength, as well.

I particularly appreciated that this book didn't try to force the reader into thinking carb cycling is the only viable solution. Instead, it explored the pros and cons of multiple approaches and offered references when possible. An accompanying PDF is also provided, making it easy for the reader to learn more about the references cited.

While I appreciate that this book is written in a way to specifically tailor to endomorph women, I believe there are also some valuable insights in here that can be beneficial for people of all body types. The author does a great job explaining the ways in which macronutrients work and offering solutions to optimize them in a way that best fits your lifestyle.

I’ve always considered myself a slow reader, but I assumed that my only ways to increase speed would involve worsening my comprehension. I’m thankful I found this book to help me challenge this assumption!

The book does a fantastic job explaining the balance between reading speed and comprehension, and it explains several methods you can utilize to slowly increase both. It addresses speed reading myths and bold claims, and offers more realistic expectations for readers.

As a busy mom who often finds myself drowning in work, I’m thankful for the lessons learned in this book to help me increase my efficiency. After only a couple of days, I’m already noticing improvement, and I believe I’ll continue to improve with practice. I highly recommend this book to others looking to cut down on time spent reading.
