What if the secret to living well is not to do more, but less, and allow the magic of the fertile void to magnetically draw beauty, joy, healing, and creativity into you life?
After "making it" with her first book, Kate Northrup found herself feeling pressured to figure out what was next - to immediately do more, create the next thing - but her body, mind, and spirit told her to wait in the stillness. What emerged from her own fertile void was the brilliant offering to womxn of the world to "Do Less."

She’s served thousands of entrepreneurs in her signature membership, Origin® Collective, guiding them to infuse feminine energy into business and helping them reclaim time, and she has also helped over 5,000 students heal their relationship with money with her signature Money Love Course.
Her first book, Money: A Love Story, has been published in 5 languages, and her second book, Do Less: A Revolutionary Approach to Time and Energy Management for Busy Moms, is available now and is a prescient and timely read that feels especially potent during these strange times.
Her work has been featured by The Today Show, Yahoo! Finance, Women’s Health, Glamour, The Institute of Integrative Nutrition, Wanderlust, and The Huffington Post.

Book Club Selection:
Emergent Strategy by adrienne maree brown
Grab your copy on Amazon here
Inspired by Octavia Butler's explorations of our human relationship to change, Emergent Strategy is radical self-help, society-help, and planet-help designed to shape the futures we want to live. Change is constant. The world is in a continual state of flux. It is a stream of ever-mutating, emergent patterns. Rather than steel ourselves against such change, this book invites us to feel, map, assess, and learn from the swirling patterns around us in order to better understand and influence them as they happen. This is a resolutely materialist “spirituality” based equally on science and science fiction, a visionary incantation to transform that which ultimately transforms us.
adrienne maree brown, co-editor of Octavia’s Brood: Science Fiction from Social Justice Movements, is a social justice facilitator, healer, and doula living in Detroit.
