Who This Is For
Work Like a Mother is for working mothers who understand the principles of productivity and self-regulation, but find those tools hard to access under pressure.
It’s designed for people who are carrying sustained cognitive load, making constant decisions, and operating in environments where interruptions are the norm.If you’re looking for motivation, inspiration, or a personality-driven system, this won’t be a fit.
If you want practical tools that work with how the brain functions under stress, it will.
