Synopsis

Delivering inspiration and "parenting comedy at its finest,"* here is one woman's story of ditching her fairytale dreams and falling in love with her unpredictable, chaotic, imperfect life from the author of I Can Fix This

Kristina Kuzmic has made herself a household name, speaking directly to mothers from the trenches of parenthood via her viral videos and social media presence. She is now bringing her message of self-acceptance, resilience, and joy to book readers. With a refreshingly unpretentious, funny, and galvanizing voice, Kuzmic goes behind the scenes to reveal how she went from broke and defeated to unshakably grounded and brimming with thankfulness. Illuminating the hard-won wisdom from a life always spent one step behind--whether it was as a high school student new to America, a suddenly single mother to two kids, remarried and juggling two teens and a toddler, or the unexpected recipient of Oprah's attention and investment--Hold On, But Don't Hold Still is the book every mother needs to reassure her that she's not only fine just as she is, but that she already has more tools and support than she can possibly imagine. Sparkling with wit, this heartfelt memoir is like a long coffee date with a best friend, or the eleventh-hour text message that gives you just the boost you need to get through the night.

Goodreads review by Jennifer on February 26, 2020

I love this women. She writes like she talks! I can hear her saying the words on the paper. I appreciate her blunt way of explaining things. How she explains them and then flips the perspective with another explanation so you can understand it from multiple points of view. She's open and real and au......more

Goodreads review by Narcisa on March 28, 2024

Kristina Kuzmic este genul de autoare care inspiră. Cartea ei nu este doar despre parenting ci și despre povestea ei ca mamă. Prezintă sacrificiile (cum ar fi menținerea unei relații cu tatăl copiilor după divorț) pe care le-a făcut spre binele copiilor ei și principiile pe care se bazează în crește......more
