As mothers, we find ourselves accustomed to juggling millions of things at once, only to find ourselves overwhelmed and uncertain about who we really are or where we stand in the world. Whether it's to our children, jobs, spouses, or family, we often times find ourselves second or forgotten. Rarely because our loved ones are not well intentioned but instead because we have fallen into the pits of unrealistic expectations of self and very poor self care. Time for mom-Me, 5 Essential Strategies for a Mother's Self-Care reveals just that. It's a God send; a wake up call on how neglecting Self deprives one of the fullness of life as a woman who happens to be a mother and an invaluable toolkit to help us negotiate the same level of care and attention that we so graciously give to others.

Thanks a million!

The perfect book for moms of all ages. The book explains how to get on track with addressing the needs of mothers as people. It helped me reaffirm that I have to take care of myself in order to take care of my family. More importantly, the book gave me an easy to follow outline for getting back on track with who I am outside of the mommy role.

As a working mom my life is too hectic for tedious how-to books. This book is concise, easy to read, and to the point. It works well for my on the go lifesytle. There are pages to make notes and it fits in my purse! Absolutely love it!

Mia is a dynamic woman, and I found there was no need to get a sex change or even have a baby in order to enjoy this book. This book is about making things work, creating balance, being in action and creating leverage. I recommend this to Perfect Networkers and to entrepreneurs, professional business people and anyone that needs more time. I believe this book is a must read for Dad's so that there is more support in the family. Thanks Mia!

In my business I meet a lot of professional business women and it is almost universally the case that balancing their business lives with family and social interests is a major challenge. Time for Mom-me provides a perfect solution to managing these competing interests and I am proud to recommend it whenever I get the opportunity.

The advice Mia share while hard hitting and effective is also simple and easy to incorporate into your routine. Mia gets your head in order then shows you simple things you can do to minimize sacrifice and enjoy life abundantly on all levels. This is a great investment if you are a woman looking for balance, and a great gift if you're a friend looking to help another friend.

Every mom should get this book at the birth of their first child! Great advice and step by step, DOable actions written for moms BY A MOM. Mia speaks to the heart of all moms.

I recommend Time for mom-Me to all mothers raising kids. This book teaches us not only to find time for yourself but teaches us how to balance our life. The assignments are great at helping you to learn more about yourself. Most of all, this book helps you grow as a mother!

I wish I had read this book when my twins were babies. It took me years to realize the importance of finding time for myself. I will be giving this book to new mothers. Leading a balanced life makes us better parents. I love the Mom "Me" Wheel of Life, it really puts things in perspective and the assignments are extremely helpful. Mia Redrick has validated a mother's need to take care of their needs too!

You will undoubtedly grow as a mother and become a better mother once you read this book! Once I finished the book, I clearly understood how not taking time for myself impacts my abilities to be the best mom and wife and the best at working towards a fulfilling career. The layout of the book is well suited for moms as well: it is practical; the self-discovery steps are easy to follow and simply laid out; the words are empowering, yet, you can get through this in an afternoon. The impact, however, will last a lifetime. The strategies that are suggested in the book for finding time for yourself, making sure what you strive for shows up in your day EVERY day, connecting with yourself as a mom and living a fulfilling life ALL while providing the best care for your child are priceless. The book takes you step by step and shows you how to achieve a fulfilling life as a mom...even when you think every moment of your day is taken up with other obligations. I highly recommend this book to every mom out there and to people who support moms in what they do.

EVERY MOM should have this book!!! I've decided to include a copy of "Time For mom-Me" in all my baby shower gifts. It truly is a must-have for EVERY MOM!!

Mia Redrick made this book very practical. It is easy to read, easy to understand and easy to apply. This book truly liberated me in the area of self-care. I now realize and understand that mom-Me time is not only okay, but NECESSARY! Loved this book!!!

Time for mom-Me: 5 Essential Strategies for A Mother's Self-Care is definitely a book we all need. As a mother of three, I constantly struggle to find time just to do chores, activities, bills, volunteer, and the list goes on. I never considered making time just for me on a regular basis. "Me" time typically happened on my birthday and mother's day. Thank you Mia, for showing how easily I can do things for me without feeling guilty. I'm going to buy this book for 3 other moms, and tell them to do the same!
