Are you tired of feeling overwhelmed, burnt out and like there is no time for you?

As a busy mom, it can feel nearly impossible to find time to work on your goals. Between the piles of laundry, dishes in the sink, taking care of your home and the day to day demands, your to-do list can feel never ending. You feel like you barely have time to make dinner, how are you going to find time for your goals?

This innovative book takes the approach of Priority Based Productivity to help busy moms learn how to create time for their goals without adding a million things to their already full to-do lists. Instead of relying on motivation, you’ll learn how to create a priority based path that makes sense for you and your life.

I know what it feels like to have these big dreams and goals but to feel like you’ll never achieve them. You may feel stuck in motherhood and like you’re losing yourself. You desperately want to work on your goals but you feel guilty about taking any time for yourself. And even if you push past those feelings of mom guilt, your ever growing to do list and kids’ needs seem to always jump in front of even just a few minutes for you.

Other productivity books out there will teach you to hustle. They’ll tell you that the only way to be successful is to get up at 5am or burn the midnight oil. That approach may work for some - but not for us moms.

We need a different approach. The 15 Minute Formula is that approach.

In just 15 minutes a day you’ll learn about the 5 Pillars of Priority Based Productivity

Vision
Time Management
Goals
Habits
Routines

In this book, you’ll learn how to customize your day so that you can sneak in some time for yourself, while still being there as a present mom. You’ll learn how to slow things down so you can actually get more done of what matters. You’ll learn a proven method for breaking down your big dreams and goals so that instead of feeling overwhelmed, you’re excited and ready to tackle the day.

The 15 Minute Formula will cover:

How to use seasonality of life in your goal setting
Why your motivation isn’t going to help you succeed
How to use time blocking in a way that gives you flexibility and urgency
The best way to break a bad habit for good
How you can use 15 Minutes a day to chip away at the goals that matter to you
What to do when your family isn’t on board with your big goals
How to ditch the mom guilt when it comes to taking time for you
And More!

Stop putting yourself last and filling your days with everything for everyone else. It’s time to give yourself permission to dream, and create time for your goals – all while picking cheerios off the floor and tucking your kids into bed.

It is possible to manage motherhood and your goals, without the guilt and burnout. The 15 Minute Formula will get you there.

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Cara is a wife, mom to her 15 year old stepson, 6 year old daughter, 4 year old son, and a woman of God. Growing up, she struggled to believe in herself and her own self worth and lived most of her life trying to please others with no real focus. She dove into her career as a teacher, where she worked with students with disabilities for 8 years before realizing that God was calling her for a purpose that allowed her to help others while taking care of herself.

After years of struggling with depression, anxiety, and burn out, she decided to leave teaching so she could work to mentor women and stay home with her family. She got into entrepreneurship via network marketing which allowed her to not only start to prioritize herself, combat her anxiety but start to develop this passion for being a virtual mentor.

Cara is a certified life coach who wants to help moms realize that they don’t have to burnout in order to be successful and it IS possible to find time for their goals. She currently works as a productivity coach for moms and her mission is to provide women with the tools, resources, and community to reach their goals, empower themselves, find their happiness and live a life by design.

She does this via her blog at www.apurposedrivenmom.com, virtual community groups, and online courses and coaching groups that help women learn to balance their lives, finances, schedules, health, and themselves! You can connect more with her on her podcast, The Purpose Driven Mom Show with over 250,000 downloads.

Productivity for moms!

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on January 24, 2022

Verified Purchase

I've read multiple books on habits, productivity, and living intentionally, and this is one of my favorites because Cara totally gets mom life with all of its pressures and demands. (E.g. Hal Elrod, I'd love to do your Miracle Morning routine, but with kids keeping me up all hours of the night, it just isn't practical or healthy for me to get up at 5am after 3 hours of broken sleep.) Cara understands this and gives moms a simple yet powerful game plan to live intentionally, figure out and focus on what really matters, and achieve big results, all without neglecting your kids or feeling like they are what's blocking you from your dreams. I also love that this book is written in simple enough terms and with short enough chapters that even this tired mom brain can comprehend it without having to re-read each passage three times. (Looking at you, The Power of Habit.) This is one of those books that I'll be referring back to time and again as I seek to get my life in order and live with passion and purpose!

Don't let summer slip away again! This is a MUST-READ for the beginning of summer! Nonfiction isn't usually my thing, BUT this book is a huge help for not letting summer slip by!

Every year, I have BIG goals for Summer Break. I'm going to do all the things. But, then all of a sudden, August is here and I'm pouring my morning coffee thinking, "Where did it all go," knowing I didn't accomplish half of my goals.

The15MinuteFormula has been a really big help to shift my mindset around about goals. Not only is it good in theory, but it comes with a free workbook. At the end of each chapter, it has a couple of action items, so you can start feeling like you're actually getting yourself together INSTANTLY.

Don't let the subtitile fool you

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on January 21, 2022

Verified Purchase

Yes, the subtitle mentions busy moms, but don't let that fool you! This book is for anyone who wants to work on goals, plans, and get themselves organized to do so or just learn that they may actually have goals or plans they didn't know before.
I was a student of Cara's 15 Minute Formula course and I was so excited when she said she was going to be revamping the course. And then she decided not to and I was disappointed until I found out it was because she was going to be writing a book about it instead!
This book is great! It helps you visualized goals, make plans to work on those goals, and helps you realize You Can Do It! Cara not only takes you step by step through the process, she makes it feel as though she's sitting at the kitchen table talking you through it, not just reading a book about it.
Read this book! Even if it's for only 15 minutes at a time, you can do anything for 15 minutes!

Relatable and Honest

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on January 18, 2022

Verified Purchase

I have been following Cara for a few years now, and have always found her very relatable and honest with her struggles. Despite knowing her story, when I sat down with her book, that first chapter took me straight back to the first few months after having had my first child - she is very raw and real, and her struggles mirrored my own.

I love her realness - she knows life does not go to plan, and she works around that, encouraging you to have a back-up plan for the days "the s*** hits the fan". Even after days / weeks like this, you can still come out feeling like you have moved the needle forward, albeit slightly, if you follow her strategies.

I love that her book is for Mum's - written by a Mum who understands. It's different, and it's gold... I highly recommend for those who are struggling to have time for themselves, and just for Mum's in general; if you have dreams, read Cara's book, implement her strategies, and watch things change.

Busy moms need the 15 Minute Formula!

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on January 20, 2022

Cara Harvey has written what I’m sure will become the go to book for busy moms!
As an avid fan of Cara’s podcast, the Purpose Driven Mom, I was thrilled when Cara announced that she was writing a book! Cara’s love and passion for helping busy moms develop routines and systems that help with daily life shines in every word! She breaks down her 15 Minute Formula into manageable chunks and provides real life examples of how it works! This book gives permission to be imperfect and a work in progress! It gives us a guide to managing our homes, lives, careers and all while making you feel like you’re seen and heard! Since finding Cara and her podcast, I’ve discovered how even 15 minutes spent on a goal can add up to big wins! The way she writes is exactly how she speaks, as a friend and someone who understands! I cannot wait to share this book with all of my friends and watch how it changes their life!

Take control of your time!

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on January 22, 2022

Verified Purchase

This book is a fantastic step-by-step guide to taking control of your busy days and making them work for you! Whether you're an at-home mom struggling to stay on top of household tasks, a working mom trying to get everything done and still have quality time with your kids, or an entrepreneur growing a business, Cara's techniques will help you grab hold of pockets of time throughout your day to actually make progress on your goals.

I love that while this book is a no-nonsense guide to getting stuff done, it also acknowledges all the things moms have to juggle every day and the barriers that can pop up and throw us off course. Cara has been through it all and has a strategy for every scenario. This guide and its free companion workbook are a great jumping-off point for building the life you actually want!

Actionable Steps to Reach Your Goals

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on February 26, 2022

Verified Purchase

This book was a game changer! Cara breaks down actionable steps in order to finally reach your goals. This is not just “theoretical mindset work,” but real steps to implement in your real life. And they really work!

This book is fantastic not only for moms, but for everyone with hectic schedules, many responsibilities, and little free time. Cara describes how to use 15 minute chunks of time to be truly productive.

I love how approachable Cara’s framework is in order to make steady progress without feeling overwhelmed.

Amazing Book - Must Read for Productivity

I think this is one book that I’ll constantly refer back to. The tips and tools provided to literally “help busy moms ditch the guilt and say yes to what matters and conquer goals” are amazing. It walks you through creating goals relevant to your season of life. I recommend this book to anyone.

Finally, a high-level, clear and accessible goal system for moms!

Reviewed in Canada 🇨🇦 on January 24, 2022

Verified Purchase

I'm a mom of 9 kids and have been a member of Cara Harvey's Purpose Driven Mom Club for awhile. Her teaching is excellent. So many goal-systems are designed for executives or people who seem to have no other responsibilities than working on their goals. Not so with this book!
The 15-Minute Formula is designed for MOMS - moms who have interruptions, who are sometimes sleep-deprived and who have divided attention. They don't have 4 hour chunks of uninterrupted time, but they still long to see progress on the purpose and calling they feel deep inside them.
The 15-Minute Formula clearly and simply walks each reader through a do-able system of crafting personalized dream-level goals, and then customizing systems and routines to bring these dreams right down to within reach. If you are like me and feel like you sometimes lack discipline to carry through with your plans...not to worry! Cara's habit stacking methodology will have you successfully doing new lasting routines that support your goals almost without realizing you are doing them!
I highly recommend this book to any busy mom who wants to feel her best without buying into the wearying hustle culture.

OMG, Amazing, Must Read...

While reading this introduction I felt I was reading about my own life just before my breakdown. I had all the same feelings as Cara, I was suffering from postpartum depression that went undiagnosed for nearly 2 years. I was sitting there sobbing with my baby while everything was continuing on around me and like Cara said, "I had tied my worth to accomplishing my day-to-day tasks."
If only the 15-minute formula was around when I needed it back then. I am so glad to have found it now though.
Reading this book is like having Cara sit next to you as she's telling you her special tips and tricks. The first 3 chapters I'd filled up 1/2 a notebook and wanted to read straight on through, but I took a break and started doing the steps Cara suggests at the end of each chapter. Game changer!
Cara's tips are easy to achieve, they make sense and I can see that I'm not going to become overwhelmed.
If you are a mum/mom, entrepreneur, or just an employee, this book will help you, all those jobs you do can come together for you.

Must read if you want to have life balance.

Reviewed in Canada 🇨🇦 on January 19, 2022

Verified Purchase

Have not finished reading it all as using workbook alongside and note taking as well but in 5th chapter and so far it is the best productivity book I bought. Easy to ready and follow. What I like best is the tone used. It's like she is having a chat with you and showing you how simple it can be. But she's realistic and comes across as a friendly mentor. Definitely recommend.

Breaking big goals into manageable steps!

Reviewed in Australia 🇦🇺 on January 21, 2022

Verified Purchase

I decided to buy this book to help myself reach some goals for this year. I tend to get overwhelmed with all the things I want to do, then give up and do nothing. Cara’s step by step method, from setting a vision for the season you’re in, to breaking down goals into real life size achievable pieces, really works for me.
I’ve been reading Cara’s stuff for a while, and I love her warm, bubbly style… but I also love that she is unafraid to show herself to be less than perfect - human like me, in fact! Much easier to relate to as a working mum than so much of the male businessman-oriented productivity coaching out there.

Great guide to getting things done while being a mom

Reviewed in France 🇫🇷 on February 28, 2022

Verified Purchase

I've been following Cara Harvey for a while now. She's a productivity coach for moms and helps you ditch the overwhelm.
I have stumbled upon her through a goal setting challenge two years ago, subscribed to her APDM Club and have had a year like never before (well at least not since I've had my kids). I have also met some wonderful people.
Long story short, Cara has written this book to help mom's like us get things done even with very little time. It is an easy read, I feel like she is talking to me while I read her words but she has not neglected the Action Steps one can take after each chapter. These are small tasks that help you implement her philosophy into your daily life and routines.
First the book helps you craft your vision and yearly goals (or 12 week yearly), you'll also learn about time blocks to be more productive.
After this you'll be able to work on your routines and habit stacks. Don't know what a habit stack is? You'll be so happy to hear about it and implement this technique into your life.
I love Cara, her Club, podcast, Facebook community and also her book! I can wholeheartedly recommend it!

Why only 4 stars instead of 5? This might not seem logical... Well it is her first book and I admire Cara for it. However, I am sure her next books will even be better!
