I put this audiobook on as I was driving to Big Bear with my girlfriend, her niece, and her niece's 2 friends. Let me tell you, to my surprise, the girls were enthralled with this book. The D.R.E.A.M goals exercise was a big hit. The girls started making up their own affirmations throughout the weekend and I'd overhear them saying them out loud during different parts of the day. It was really cute. Personally, I liked the learning ASL section as well as the Mental Health section. Particularly, the part about social media and how what they see on it, is not a true reflection of someone's life. I also appreciated the Financial section. It is never too early to teach kids about money. The earlier they learn, the more success they'll have. Anyone who has a tween girl in their life needs to get this audiobook. It truly is a great guide.

This is by far one of the best IF books I've listened to. Hearing the author's journey with IF was inspiring. What made this audiobook stand out to me was the section on supplements. Other books I've listened to or read never really talked about supplements and whether they can break your fast. I also appreciated the on what foods to eat and which foods to avoid. The focus on women over 50 is so good. I'm not quite there yet, but I am now prepared for when I do reach that age. I'm definitely passing on the knowledge I've learned to my mom (and gifting this audiobook to her so she can listen while at work) as she has struggled with her weight and can't seem to drop any even though she is doing the "right" things. The recipes sound delicious and the meal plan is top-notch. Truly, a great resource for those looking to start IF in their later years.

I don't have kids but I am an assistant coach for a high school soccer team. Brian does a fabulous job narrating Joyce's words. The chapters that stood out to me were Chapter 3 "The Teen Brain and Mental Health" along with Chapter 6 "Discipline and Boundaries". I appreciate Joyce pointing out the signs to look out for with teen anxiety, depression, and stress. Along with the exercises that can help your teen get through the challenging times and build resilience in Chapter 3. Another section I really appreciated listening to was in Chapter 6 regarding understanding the root cause of why a teen may be acting out and how to respond without escalating the issue. It truly is a delicate dance between empathy, patience, and self-control. I've had a few years of learning to perfect that dance and let me tell you, it is so worth learning as it does build a more positive and respectful relationship. So if you're someone who works with or lives with teenagers, you need to listen to this audiobook. You won't regret it!

I don't even know where to begin. There are so many good things about this 3-1 audiobook. Francesca does such a great job narrating Aria's words. Her voice is very soothing and not in an annoying way which is what I need for meditations. I have struggled with limiting beliefs and have been looking for more ways to overcome them and these mediations that Aria provides have been doing the trick. Specifically mediation 4. The affirmations are great and thankfully, not corny. This is huge because who wants to repeat corny affirmations? The point is to believe in what you're saying and if they're corny, it defeats the purpose. I had never heard of Binaural Beats and I have to say, I am so glad I was introduced to this concept. The soundscapes put me in such a peaceful state. If you're looking to attract and are struggling to open yourself to receiving, you must get this audiobook. I truly believe it will help you just as much as it has helped me.

I'm a newbie to herbal remedies and I'm grateful I came across this audiobook. Looking things up online can be overwhelming so having all the information in one place is time-saving. Michelle provides great explanations of the effects herbs have and I appreciate that it is referenced multiple times to talk to your health-care provider. Although many are trained to push prescriptions (thanks to big pharma) there are doctors out there who do know there are healthier alternatives. The amount of detail Michelle goes into is helpful (especially when it comes to growing herbs) and the recipes she provides are *chef's kiss*. I also enjoyed listening to Sera bring Michelle's words to life. Her voice was engaging and kept my attention. An excellent resource.

Don't let the title fool you. Parents/guardians of teens can benefit from this book too. As a matter of fact, I highly recommend parents do listen to this because it will help them be able to have discussions with their teen(s) and support them. The author does an excellent job explaining mental health and going into the things that can cause someone to start having these issues. The advice is clear and easy to understand. It also is presented in a way that teens are more likely to accept what is being said than they would if their parents/guardians tried talking to them. The stories are relatable and engaging. The coping mechanisms presented are actually doable and the emphasis on building resilience is top-notch. The narrator speaks with compassion and empathy which is very important when presenting this information. This is a valuable resource for teens and parents/guardians.

I had no idea how interesting and lucrative becoming a notary and loan signing agent could be. You can tell Alec really dove deep and knows what he is talking about. Not only will beginners get the ins and outs of how to become a notary, but along with seasoned notaries, they'll learn how to expand their business into something bigger than they initially thought with the marketing and branding tips. I also appreciated that each of the 50 states was broken down into their own sections. So not only do you learn about the state you're in but if you want to, you can learn about the other states. Definitely will come in handy if you decide to move states. I don't want to give too much away because you should buy the book and hear it for yourself. I will say though, make sure you have something to take notes with if you're serious about becoming a notary and loan signing agent.

I'm at the age where my friends are starting to have families or are thinking about starting a family. I am telling them they must buy this 2 in 1 handbook. The amount of information you get from this book is so valuable. You get tips starting from the first few weeks of pregnancy all the way to toddlerhood. The details of what a woman goes through during pregnancy are also discussed and give men a great idea of what their wives, girlfriends, baby-mamas, etc go through while pregnant. One of my favorite lines is when the author speaks about exercise; "First rule: it’s up to her how much exercise she does and whether she does any at all. You’re not the one carrying around a steadily growing kettlebell in your tummy." As you can see from the quote from the book, not only does the author give sound advice, but they also have a sense of humor. So all you expecting dads out there and also the ones who have their first child entering toddlerhood, this is a must-buy. Any anxious feelings will dissolve and you'll feel prepared for the exciting chapter in your life.

Gut health is all the rage right now. With that being said, this is one of the best books I've come across. The and the author does a great job sharing their personal experience as well as giving practical advice on how to fix inflammation (meal plans). Speaking of the meal plans, if you're like me and hate spending a ton of money on food, then you'll be happy to know the meal plans are budget-friendly. The importance of sleep quality, stress management, and exercise is also discussed in detail. So glad this book is out for people to enjoy and learn how to improve their quality of life.
