About this listen
Social media comedian Heather Land uses her trademark sassy, laugh-out-loud humor to remind us of the many ways that real life can be really funny.
Heather Land has something to say about almost everything in life - the unbelievable, inconceivable, and downright frustrating - and why she “ain’t doin’ it.” In her first book, Heather shines a light on the (occasional) ridiculousness of life through a series of hilarious essays, dishing on everything from Walmart and ex-husbands to Southern beauty pageants and unfortunate trips to the gynecologist.
I Ain’t Doin’ It reminds us that when it comes to life’s messy moments, it’s all about perspective - and that we too can say, I ain’t doin’ it!
Perfect for fans of Jim Gaffigan, Anjelah Johnson, and Brian Regan, I Ain’t Doin' It is a fun, breezy listen for anyone who appreciates someone who tells it like it is and wants to embrace the lighter side of life.

Hey you guys, it’s Leslie. I’m excited to share my story with you. Now, I’m gonna be honest: Some of the details might be vague because a b*tch is fifty-five and she’s smoked a ton of weed. But while bits might be a touch hazy, I can promise you the underlying truth is REAL.

Happiness is considered a destination, but the finish line is constantly moving—when we get married, find that dream job, move away from home, have a baby, build a dream house, etc. We are promised that a happy life is tied to these milestones. But what if society has it wrong? What if happiness isn't the goal at all? With her trademark candor and hilarious storytelling, MK paints a picture of a different life—one bursting with a force that is far more sustainable and vibrant: joy.

If you're anything like Kerri Pomarolli, you've read Proverbs 31 and thought, "Who is this woman? And what kind of magic unicorn, Energizer Bunny juice does she have on IV?" As a sought-after comedian living in LA, Kerri knows about impossible standards. "I don't plow, and I don't rise early. When it says she gathers her food from afar, does that mean takeout...?" Kerri is a self-proclaimed hot mess for Jesus who has learned that God never said our lives would be mess-less, but He also never intended for us to wallow forever without a way through.

Is my ordinary, everyday life actually significant? Is it okay to be fulfilled by the simple acts of raising kids, working in an office, and cooking chicken for dinner? Melanie Shankle tackles these questions head-on. Easygoing and relatable, she speaks directly to the heart of women of all ages who are longing to find significance and meaning in the normal, sometimes mundane world of driving carpool to soccer practice, attending class on their college campus, cooking meals for their family, or taking care of a sick loved one.

Funny and Poignant
I laughed and I cried and I laughed til I cried. This book has all the “feels”! I’ve been through very similar hard times and this book was like having a best friend who “gets” me, gets where I’ve been, gets how I feel and somehow made me laugh about it all! True Beautiful Therapy!!!
Thank you Heather for your bravery and for inspiring me to say “I am doin it!”

Heather Land is funny and serious and you can tell the difference! This book was great, and I especially liked hearing it in her own voice. Some spots really should have had the filter included, but if you use your imagination you can hear it, and you will laugh harder! Kudos Heather thank you and I can’t wait for the next!

Like sitting down with a good friend for a good chat
I don’t even know how I came to hear of Heather Land but I’m so glad I did! I love her sarcastic humor that is so like mine, just without all the minor cuss words that tend to dabble my speech LOL
I thought it was an uplifting story of someone who went through some real stuff and dealt with it in the real world and has come out on the other side.

I didn't want the book to end
I loved every minute of the book. When Heather was wrapping up the last chapter, I wanted to hear more of her life experiences. My life is very different from hers, yet her stories brought back my own treasured memories of family, friends and shenanigans. I listen to audible books when I run. While listening to this book, I frequently laughed until I cried. I gave up trying to compose myself while laughing and crying in public. At the end of the book, she helped me realize how thankful I am for the risks I have taken in life that brought me to where I am today. I just bought Heather's second audio book, and I am very much looking forward to listening to it.
