More Time Doesn’t Mean More Work: Why I’m Sticking to a Three-Day Work Week

In this episode of The Thriving Mompreneur Podcast, Liz Kent opens up about her decision to continue working just three days a week—even now that all three of her kids are in school full-time.

She shares why this intentional choice isn’t about doing less, but about creating more space, margin, and freedom in her business and family life. Liz unpacks how redefining success, setting boundaries, and resisting hustle culture help her thrive as both a business owner and mom.

Key Takeaways

Success isn’t only about hours worked: true success also includes freedom, fulfillment, relationships, and peace.
Boundaries create efficiency: limiting work to three focused days forces prioritization of the tasks that move business forward.
Margin matters: building space for rest, errands, fitness, and social connection prevents burnout.
Modeling balance for kids: working intentionally shows children that family and well-being are as important as ambition.
More time doesn’t mean more work: choosing not to fill every hour with productivity is a powerful counter to hustle culture.

Quotes From the Episode

“More time doesn’t always mean more work. Sometimes it means more space to breathe.”
“Scarcity of time forces you to prioritize the tasks that actually grow your business.”
“Our whole value isn’t measured by how productive we are.”
“I want my kids to see that my business supports our life, not the other way around.”
