“Less is Liberation is for anyone who has felt like they've had to constantly catch their breath. It's timely, relevant, and most importantly, meets readers where they are.

“Christine Platt is a beacon for those of us struggling to figure out balance in an overwhelming and confusing world. Her new book, Less Is Liberation, is memoir and roadmap in one, a guide for women of color in particular who are on a journey to find true personal freedom.”
—Deepa Iyer, activist and author of We Are The Builders!
“Christine Platt redefines minimalism as a reclamation practice—one rooted in dignity, self-determination, and truth-telling. Less is Liberation guides us through the quiet, courageous work of letting go: of stuff, of stories, of survival patterns that no longer serve us. With clarity and care, she reminds us that living well is not about keeping up—it’s about returning to ourselves. Built on the quiet, radical act of saying 'no more', this book is not about lack, but about reclaiming space for what truly matters. It is an offering—for rest, for reflection, for choosing yourself on your own terms.”
—Christine Job, host and creator of the award-winning Flourish in the Foreign podcast
“Christine Platt invites readers to confront the hidden beliefs and generational burdens that fuel our constant busyness in Less Is Liberation. Through deeply personal storytelling and cultural insight, she speaks especially to women who have been conditioned to carry everything and everyone. This is a deeply healing read—equal parts reflective and revolutionary.”
—Kate Purmal, author of The Moon Shot Effect
