“Most days I feel overwhelmed.”
“I want to run away and start over.”
“The joy and excitement are gone.”
There are more than 60 million worn-out women in the U.S. today. If you’re among them, this book will be like a retreat for your soul.
One short chapter at a time, you’ll find simple steps to bring back the joy and energy of a rich life. What’s more, you’ll finally understand and learn to manage the sources of your exhaustion—perfectionism, guilt, unrealistic expectations, and difficult people—in a healthy way.
Story Behind the Book
We have written this book because it will provide the worn out women of today’s society with practical solutions to those who want to drop out because they are stressed out. Although some of you will look for quick checklists… wanting to jump to the “just let me unclutter my life” sections… we know the value of uncluttering you heart first. For that reason, we’ve included chapters for all areas of your life—emotional, mental, social, physical and spiritual. Most other books focus on learning to say no, simplifying your lifestyle, organization, and nurturing your spirit. Our book is unique because it includes all of these but also covers solutions for the root causes of why women do too much.

Get too close to them, and you put yourself at risk for any number of problems.

Studies estimate that there are more than sixty million worn-out women in the United States and that another sixty million are on the fast track to becoming exhausted and overwhelmed.
