The Possibility Mom: How to be a Great Mom and Pursue Your Dreams at the Same Time Kindle Edition

by Lisa Canning (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
4.6 out of 5 stars 45 ratings
An interior designer and lifestyle coach helps modern moms design lives they love with less stress, less guilt, and more time to pursue their dreams.
 
Balancing the demands of modern motherhood is a tough job. Between kids, work obligations, social commitments, and household duties, trying to fit in a little me time (let alone a date night) can seem practically impossible. For many moms, doing well at work makes them feel like they’re failing at home, and when they focus on their family, they feel like they’re falling behind at work. It’s a vicious cycle that all too often lead to burnout—but there really is another way.
 
The Possibility Mom provides practical solutions for keeping the balance of a modern mother’s life with less stress, less guilt, and more satisfaction. Here, you’ll learn smart ways to trim your to-do list, clarify your priorities, get more done in less time, and live the life you love―one that you design.

    Reviewed in the United States on November 9, 2019

    This book is one of the best self-improvement books I've read in a long time!

    As a new mom who is trying to balance working from home and growing gracefully into this new role as a mother, this book is exactly what I needed.

    What I love about this book is that it works in conjunction with Lisa's digital worksheets and resources that she provides throughout the chapters, so you can immediately implement the ideas and concepts she is discussing and get to work!

    Reading this book made me feel like I CAN make small daily changes that will affect my ability to be a better mom and a better me, and that it's COMPLETELY OKAY to have other dreams and desires besides being a mom (and that doesn't make you a bad mom!).

    I love how encouraging this book was and that Lisa offered personal insights and stories to show us how to design a life of your dreams without sacrificing the most important things.

    She offers very practical advice and fresh ideas I would have never really thought about!

    I would definitely recommend this book to every mom out there because women really truly run the world, but we need a little encouragement along the way :)

    5.0 out of 5 stars More than a book - it's an awesome workbook!
    Reviewed in the United States on August 10, 2019

    I'm 7 chapters in this book is kicking my butt! It's so good!! I'm used to reading books that inspire me but then go in one ear and out the other after I'm done reading them. This one is essentially like a workbook that takes you step by step through how to dream and then IMPLEMENT!

    Lisa's story and what she challenges her readers to do is so inspiring. As an entrepreneurial mom, I've listened to so many podcasts and read so many books on this and her message is really different. She really gets down into the root of what you want as a mother, what you want your family life to look like, etc.

    I can't wait to finish it but the work I've done 1/2 way through has been life-changing for this super high achieving type-A work-a-holic mom. She's helping me re-frame the way I view my self-worth (it should NOT be tied to my accomplishments like it has been for many years) and rethink the way I view success (family success as more important than career and business accomplishments).

    5.0 out of 5 stars Every mom needs to read this!
    Reviewed in the United States on July 10, 2019
    This book was seriously life-changing for me. Lisa offered tangible advice, steps, and worksheets to map out your priorities, goals, and dreams and how to make them happen as a mom.
    The difference between this book and so many self-help books is that I knew exactly what to do with the knowledge and advice that was shared because of the way the book is set up. You learn about a foundational step in creating your dream life and then are given activities, such as links to worksheets, that you can either complete on your phone or print out.
    I’m an avid reader and wish that more self-improvement books were like this.
    It was a book that I couldn’t put down and I want to share with every mom I know.
    It was a quick read too- which as a working mom, was much appreciated.
    Lisa shares that she is on a mission to change motherhood- that motherhood doesn’t have to be a place where your dreams go to die and she proves it in this book.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Excelent Book for Moms!
    Reviewed in the United States on August 30, 2020
    This book is very complete, it includes questionnaires for you to internalize and Also guides you all the way to clarify your ideas and discover how you can make your life easier, it motivates you and opens your eyes to remove old schemes and beliefs that a mother is not able to be happy doing what She likes, it helps you in every step, I recommend not continuing another chapter until working on the workSheets. Highly recommended, inspiring and full of spirituality. I love books that are not empty, that carry the light of Christ in personal fulfillment to other people. It is a well-documented, self-help book with references that you are going to love!

    5.0 out of 5 stars A MUST-READ for EVERY mom!
    Reviewed in the United States on July 12, 2019
    This book is not only an easy read, it's so pleasant and relatable...like you're talking to your best mom friend! Except she has somehow figured out how to balance her life and dreams while having SEVEN children! It's so inspirational and encouraging. At first I thought this would just be a pep talk type book, but it provides actual, specific ways to plan, adjust, schedule, and prioritize your life! Canning shows you HOW to reach your goals of being a more present, less stressed, happy mom and woman, regardless of whether you are working full-time, part-time, starting a business, have unfulfilled dreams, or just feel more stressed than you'd like to be. Most importantly she demonstrates how to put your kids and family first without giving up everything else. I recommend this book to any and every mom out there!

    I bought this book hoping it would come in time to accompany me on a reflective spa day and it did!
    The first chapter pages had me crying because it felt like it was like reading a snip it about where I was in my life-this have me hope, that I could come out from underneath my chaotic life.
    Not your cookie cutter self help books on how to be a better Mom/person book....but Lisa offers so much insight that gets you in a place where you reflect, relate and re-evaluate the craziness of everyday life and actually be motivated implement some positive change.

    For anyone that's thinking about getting this book-stop thinking and just order it!
    You will NOT regret it!
    And to the Author Mrs. Canning you, are a Supastah-thank you for writing this!

    I found Lisa on my instagram page, and love her daily posts so much that I decided to purchase this book. So very practical and easy to read. I am most thankful for these tips as I have a toddler and an infant and I had found myself in an overwhelming state of being. Cheers to easier days as I continue to implement Lisa's tips. Bless your heart Lisa for being obedient and writing this book.
