Summary

Kindness - The Little Thing That Matters Most aims to motivate and inspire by showing listeners what a difference even a small act of kindness can make.

It uses the voices of those who have been helped by the author's charity - 52 Lives - to ground the ideas in real-life action. The audiobook is themed around 52 simple actions you can do to spread kindness. Interspersed throughout are nuggets of science explaining the positive effect kindness has on the brain and on the heart.

This audiobook is a call to action for people to live a more connected, fulfilling life. Jam-packed with inspirational quotes and personal stories, this audiobook will give you all the motivation you need to start spreading a little kindness - it's free, after all! Learn to live a life of kindness by following Jaime's infectious positivity in this charming audiobook.

Here are some examples:

  • Be a friend who listens.
  • Write to a teacher who changed your life.
  • Give away your old clothes to someone who needs them.
  • Cook a meal for someone you love.
