I found Adrienne’s writing style so enjoyable to read. I had not heard of her before reading this book but now I’m a huge fan and I’m signed up to her power hour podcast and plan to listen to it once a week on my commute to work. b) any consequential or incidental losses which are a side effect of the main loss or damage and not reasonably foreseeable by us and you at the time of entering into these terms and conditions.My husband and I haven't really had to speak about sharing the domestic load, we’ve always been very 50/50. So from my perspective, it's never been a case of ‘Oh well done! The dad did something!’ because we're both adults and we both work. I know that's probably not the case for everyone but even then, it’s not perfect. For example on Monday, I had to go to the supermarket at 6.45am because I was like, ‘We've got a really busy day, neither of us are going to get any other chance to go’. Sometimes things don't always fit into your schedule so you have to be flexiblewith it, too.” Accept you can’t get it right every time Whether it’s the pounding motion of my feet, my breath, or just that I'm moving forward, physically heading towards something and away from something else, it feels good; it feels progressive. That’s the flow state.’ ‘Even if it’s hard, I know I can do it’

The words we say to ourselves and about ourselves are really important", Adrienne adds. "Remember, you're an adult and this is a choice. It's not a punishment - it's a choice.

How many times have you said, 'I'd love to do that, but I don't have time'? The Power Hour message is simple: one hour a day is all you need to change your life for the better. We all have an hour to dedicate to ourselves and our dreams, whether we think we do or not. The premise is simple: take an hour each day, normally the first, and set it aside for you. That could be training for a marathon or listening to a podcast, drawing, journalling, learning a language, doing yoga. Whatever it is, the intentional hour is a hugely beneficial mindset that can revolutionise not only your mental wellbeing, but even the way you approach your career. Wie sieht die erste Stunde deines Tages aus und wenn du jeden Tag eine Stunde mehr Zeit hättest – was würdest du tun?

Die Grundidee: Der Tag hat für jeden Menschen 24 Stunden. Nimm die erste nach dem Aufstehen (auch wenn du dafür früher aufstehen - und früher ins Bett gehen - musst) und widme sie nur dir selbst und deinen (aktuellen, eventuell auch wechselnden) Zielen: die Power Hour.It’s true, I want to use my voice to encourage other women to achieve whatever they want.

I grew up with a single mum with four kids, low-income household. She didn’t have choices. She didn’t have agency. She didn’t have money. She didn’t have opportunities. And I think, as a result of that, she was never empowered. Growing up I definitely saw that, and thought: life doesn’t happen to you, you have to actively participate in your life and seize opportunities, make decisions and make it work.
