Erin Falconer is a successful entrepreneur and author who was constantly on the go, and found solutions over time as she learned women don't have to "do it all." Falconer, who founded the digital sites LEAFtv and PickTheBrain, sits down with Alyssa Julya Smith in Los Angeles to discuss her book "How to Get Sh*t Done: Why Women Need to Stop Doing Everything So They Can Achieve Anything." Falconer's new book shows overscheduled, overwhelmed women how to do less so that they can achieve more. She emphasizes that women need to remember to put themselves first, and explains that most women live in a constant state of guilt: feeling like they are not doing enough, aren't good enough, and can’t keep up. Falconer talks bout how many women feel that if they are not climbing the corporate ladder, preparing home-cooked meals, meditating daily, scheduling play dates, date nights, and girls’ nights every week, then they're not living their best lives. Falconer explains that actually doing less will produce better results, and reminds women in her book to check in with themselves on a regular basis.
