Summary
Delivering inspiration and "parenting comedy at its finest" (The Huffington Post), here is one woman's story of ditching her fairy-tale dreams and falling in love with her unpredictable, chaotic, imperfect life.
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 audiobook listeners. 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 audiobook 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 11th-hour text message that gives you just the boost you need to get through the night.
A Viking Life title

An inspiring and enlightening experience!
Flawed life can be good? How is that possible? It's very possible and Kristina proves it again and again in every new chapter and teaches us that the current situation does not determine our entire lives. Every person on the planet should read this book! Real life stories from perspective of one struggling single mom. Thank you Kristina Kuzmić for sharing your life with us.

Truly amazing!
This is a book for every parent! We struggle so many times, often without anyone to share with, without anyone to help us feel better and tell us that we are doing a good job.
This is the book to listen to whenever you feel like you are not good enough parent, or just to know that you are not alone.

Such a beautiful and honest woman
I just love this woman
I resonate so much with her brutal honesty and I cried in public not giving a single penny for it. Because I just loved it
The chapter about her grandmother was so soul crushing and beautiful
I love her

BE A GOOD HUMAN 101
Although I'm not a mother, I am addicted to Kristina since I first saw her 'I'm not your friend kid' video. (I guess our shared Nutella and ice cream addiction made me hopelessly stuck. #noregrets) 😍
Everything she teaches to us, can easily be applied to your life even when you don't have children, and it can be applied to your business. I'm shocked how much it helped me with my business actually....
This book should be a must read in every school. In every workplace... it should be a requirement in each CV when you go to job interviews...
I'm listening as an audiobook because I love the way she talks. Yuppppp, I'm listening it for the 3rd time. and no, I'm not done yet.
She is a great inspiration for what kind of person I want to be.
😍💚🙏
