Kendra Adachi went to college to become a high school English teacher but instead became the Lazy Genius, passionately and candidly sharing how to stop doing it all for the sake of doing what matters. Her work includes hosting The Lazy Genius Podcast, cooking dinner on Instagram, and convincing her three young kids that talking into the phone is Mommy's job. She and her husband love raising their family in the same North Carolina city they both grew up in.
"As a longtime fan of The Lazy Genius Podcast, I could not be more
excited about this book. Kendra has a gift for asking questions
that helps you prioritize the parts of your life that really matter
and let go of the parts that don't. She doesn't preach or pressure;
she inquires and encourages. As she admits, it's not easy to manage
the seemingly constant demands of running a house, planning meals,
hosting relatives, and creating and maintaining holiday traditions,
all while finding time for your own work and self-care. But Kendra
makes it all a lot easier!"-Jenna Fischer, actor, author of The
Actor's Life, and cohost of the Office Ladies podcast
"Kendra has a heart for infusing the mundane and practical with a
profound sacredness. Frankly, it's infuriating how she manages to
be effortlessly instructional, inspirational, and hilarious all at
the same time, but the world is such a better place for it. I've
never been more thankful for someone's voice."-Knox McCoy, author
of All Things Reconsidered
"If you've been taught that nothing good comes from being lazy, get
ready to let Kendra change your mind and life forever. Spoiler:
laziness is the powerful tool that frees you to be a genius where
it really matters. I wish I had this eye-opening book twenty years
ago."-Myquillyn Smith, Wall Street Journal bestselling author of
Cozy Minimalist Home
"The Lazy Genius Way is a recipe for creating a generous, less
stressed domestic life. Kendra's suggestions for thoughtful
routines in place of rigid rules will leave the reader feeling
settled and prepared for the changing rhythms of both family life
and personal growth. Also, she is what experts refer to as a
hoot."-Gina Smith and S. D. Smith, author of The Green Ember
series
"I always followed the lazy path when it came to my home. The
results of that approach were not surprising-trash bins stuffed
with take-out boxes, moldy laundry in the washer, and so much
chaos. But Kendra Adachi offers a better way. The Lazy Genius Way
doesn't mean you have to become a gourmet chef or start cleaning
the baseboards with a toothbrush. Kendra will meet you in the
middle. She offers easy steps that will have you marking off your
list in record time without sacrificing every free moment you have.
Kendra helps us make space for tasks and television. She finds time
for us to solve problems and scroll Instagram. The Lazy Genius Way
is the perfect way."-Jamie Golden, cohost of The Popcast with Knox
and Jamie
