Raising Human Beings sounds like an awesome book. I’d love to give that one a read. These all sound like great books, actually.
I need to read that burnout book! I have been feeling like the worst mother lately because I am always so overwhelmed by work.
My sister needs that Mommy Burnout book so badly! Single mom of three kids AND she’s an elementary school teacher!
I could definitely use Sworkit. I never have time to work out. We just moved to a new city and my routine is all out of whack.
Mommy Burnout is on my list. I can SOOOO relate to that title!
All these books look amazing! Such a great list with amazing book options!
I am going to have to look for the burnout book. I may have fully overcommitted this year. Where is summer?
These are really awesome recommendations! Perfect for back to school season.
This is a great selection of books! I think I might need to check out the one on Mommy Burnout soon.
