Kristi Patrice Carter’s mission is to help people live their best lives—one self-help book at a time. A wife, mother, serial entrepreneur, and author, Carter has a passion for sharing her knowledge to empower readers. She writes on everything from finding financial freedom to parenting toddlers to living and thriving with chronic illness.

Along with her books, Carter has penned articles for CareerBuilder.com and Pediatrics for Parents. She believes in inspiring others toward success—from short-term goals to long-term fulfillment. With the motto “Never, ever, ever give up,” she wants readers to know it’s okay to stumble as long as you get back up again and find the will to keep going. You'll never attain the successful life if you quit.

Carter has a Bachelor of Arts degree in English from the University of Illinois at Chicago, a Juris Doctorate from Chicago-Kent College of Law, and over seventeen years of writing and marketing experience. She has worked as a family law mediator in Illinois and as an online mediator in California, assisting clients in online disputes to find the common ground for families. Through mediation, Carter has helped thousands of people in conflict find resolutions where everyone wins.

The topics explored in her writing are close to her heart. Carter is a prosperity guru who wants you to get the most out of your money when you’re working hard and when you’re taking a well-deserved break. Carter’s books help readers find ways to keep income streaming into their bank accounts 24/7. Carter writes about chronic illness because she knows what it feels like to live with illness and pain. She never wants you to feel alone; instead, she shares her belief that God never gives us more than we can bear. She uses her superpowers to help motivate other warriors to find theirs.

Carter’s family life is crazy-busy, and she wouldn’t have it any other way. She and her husband live in Illinois with their three beautiful children; a Maltese dog named Henry, who follows her everywhere; and a captive-bred double yellow-headed Amazon parrot named Hearsay, who can’t stop talking. Her longtime dream is to treat her family to a vacation in Maui—one that’s all-expenses paid through passive income—and otherwise living the rest of their life like royalty on dividends, investment interests, book royalties, reward points, and sign-up bonuses. She wishes the same for you and your family!

5.0 out of 5 stars A Perfect Guide to Weaning Your Child the Natural Way
Reviewed in the United States on September 12, 2015

Weaning your child is not a cookie cutter process and this is exactly what Carter expresses in her book, Wean That Kid. Cater unravels the tangled web of weaning your little bundle of joy. As a mother that breastfed her son for 18 months, I could totally relate.

Motherhood can leave you a frazzled mess and this very comprehensive guide to weaning your little one provides (for both you and your child) natural ways in which to harmoniously and synergetically help your child graduate to the next stage of their life.

The author uses not only her own real life experiences and expertise, but she also lends the advice from other mothers like myself. I only wish I had a guide like this when my child reached this milestone. Carter does not try to sway or convince mothers of one method of weaning, but provides a myriad of avenues in which a mother can take on this part of her motherhood journey. In the beginning of the book, there is a "Fact or Fiction" section that was filled will all sorts of information pertaining to breastfeeding that I never even knew about and it was pretty entertaining too.

I really liked that the book also afforded the reader with many follow-up resources such as support groups, weaning diary, and affirmations that inspire overwhelmed mothers to keep up the good work. Carter's writing style flows making this an easy read and I love the "mommy humor". I found this book to be motivational, informative, inspiring, and enlightening and I highly recommend this book to not only new moms, but experienced moms as well. Two thumbs up!

5.0 out of 5 stars Invaluable resource! A practical resource book for mothers!
Reviewed in the United States on September 16, 2015
Verified Purchase
This book is a wealth of practical information that all mothers who are breast feeding can use. The strategies on how to wean our babies and the testimonials from different mothers’ are priceless! While reading the book, I felt as if I was a part of a special club of mothers! And I’m not alone experiencing some of the changes I feel in my body as well as the emotional roller coaster I’m get on sometimes. I was able to share with a friend some of the strategies for weaning, and an explanation for what she is currently feeling because she has to go back to work and does not know how to deal with all the strange emotions and discomfort she feels of withdrawing from not nursing her son. I loved the humor encased in such a serious, sensitive matter that so many mothers (and fathers) are struggling with, especially first time parents who do not have the proper support system.
I found this book to be a very informative and enlightening resource book that mothers and expecting mothers can enjoy! A great price too!!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars A must-read caring guide to weaning your child
Reviewed in the United States on September 15, 2015

I was one of those mothers who was completely unprepared for motherhood when it came along. I didn't know a thing about nursing, weaning, or much else and did much by trial and error. I would have loved to have had a copy of author Kristi Patrice Carter's "Wean That Kid" many years ago but am so happy for those who can benefit from this guidance now. Filled with some great wisdom about nursing and various techniques for weaning your child that are easy to understand and that actually work. A very well written guide that I would consider a must read for new moms. Well done.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good Guide - Practical and Not Judgmental
Reviewed in the United States on December 18, 2015
This was an excellent, practical and short guide to weaning. I really appreciated that the author emphasized that every child and situation is different, and definitely did not try to guilt trip mothers. That being said, one or two of the stories that the author shared definitely had a bit of a judgy tone.

The author presents both child-led and mother-led weaning without bashing the reader over the head about which one is better - she states that mothers need to pick the one that works for them. She does point out that suddenly stopping breast-feeding can be painful and cause an infection.

That being said, this book is specifically aimed at weaning toddlers, not babies. There seems to be a bit of an assumption that mothers are staying home with the child all day (i.e., nothing was really said about supplementing with formula, and surprisingly little about the idea of helping the weaning process by having other people give the toddler a bottle, whether it is formula or expressed milk). The mother-led strategies can be useful for weaning infants as well, however.

The book itself is fairly short, but the author provides a decent list of resources to look at for more help.

It's definitely worth the read if you're facing this issue.

I received a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

5.0 out of 5 stars Insightful, down to earth and balanced.

As my husband and I are TTC soon, I've been reading a few pregnancy and childcare books. I hadn't even considered weaning yet and the topic of breastfeeding and weaning seemed so controversial, I was a bit hesitant to try any books on the subject. But Kristi's book is very different to sensationalist online blogs and reports. It's down to earth, insightful and far from one sided, offers balanced advice, support and help for all forms of weaning, from baby-led weaning for older toddlers to mother-led weaning through separation. This was great and it really calmed my fears on the matter!
