    About this audiobook

    ‘A beguiling exploration of how flexibility can contribute to creativity, purpose and happiness.’ Justine Roberts, founder of Mumsnet

    ‘Straight-talking self-help… Inspiring words, practical help and a fresh way of seeing things that we’ll be forcing on just about everyone we know.’
    Stylist

    ‘A no-nonsense guide to thinking and behaving more flexibly in order to have a happier, better, less frenetic life’ Marie Claire

    As featured in Sunday Times Style, Stella, Stylist, Grazia, The Sun, Bustle, Marie Claire

    Reinventing the rules for a smarter, happier life.

    Flex is a creative, rebellious way to live. It’s about looking at routines (like the nine to five) and social norms (like women bearing the brunt of the ‘emotional load’ at home) and bending and re-shaping them.

    Flex is looking within and understanding yourself, your body and the patterns of your relationships, and working out how to live, earn money and be happy in a way that is perfect for you and your unique talents.

    Flex is knowing that the world is changing fast. The jobs we were trained for in school won’t exist in a decade. The career ladder has been replaced with the portfolio.

    If you feel stuck, tired, not at your best, bored… this book is for you.
    If you are burning with ideas but stuck in an environment that squashes them… this book is for you.
    If you are a rebel at heart… this book is for you.

    Flex is reinventing the rules for a smarter, happier future.

      HOW TO BE A morning person (OR AT LEAST FAKE IT)

      Jan 6, 2021

      When your alarm goes off and your body pleads for ‘a few more minutes’, just say no. You’ll only get an extra 10-15 minutes of sleep, and it’ll be very fragmented and not deep enough to feel restorative. So, rather than setting your alarm for 6.15am

      "Flexing" is different from multitasking, which is usually a bad idea. While the subtitle suggests that this is a business book only, Annie Auerbach shares ideas in this little book about how to flex your work life, your home life, and your online life to make a more fulfilling life in which you are more creative and genuinely productive. Is your life really working for you? Can you make it work for you? What kinds of arrangements to you need to mix up, mashup, flex up in order to make this happen? What myths need challenging or busting? Do you need to rebel? What about your use of technology? Technology can either serve you or it can bog you down. Plenty of suggestions and inspiration between these covers for tuning in to some not-so-obvious solutions and implementing them.Thanks to Netgalley and HarperCollins for a free dARC of this book in exchange for an honest review.
