By: Jess Connolly

Narrated by: Jess Connolly

If you're a woman, chances are you know the cycle: You start the day already exhausted and end it defeated, all the while telling yourself things will get better if you can just power through this week. But then the weeks turn into months, and you start to believe you'll never be able to stop, slow down, or catch your breath. You wouldn't even know how if you tried. And yet God has made you for a life of abundance, not a life of exhaustion. It's time to quit the unsustainable pace and receive God's gift of realistic rest.

With relatable stories and eye-opening insights, bestselling author and speaker Jess Connolly offers good news to soul-weary women. There is a better way, and it is yours for the taking.

She shows you:

- how to find the source of your fatigue.

- scripts for saying no and strategies for protecting your peace

- practices for bringing realistic rest into your daily and weekly rhythms.

You can break the cycle of living like you're constantly on the hook and come to Jesus to find rest for your weary and burdened soul. This book will show you how to find new rhythms so that you can experience the abundant life God intended for you.

Much needed

This book is amazing! I have been hearing about taking a sabbath a lot lately. This book was so needed at this season in my life. I am so grateful for this book!

Life changing! MUST READ

I’ve been suffering spiritually, emotionally, physically, in every aspect of my life for so long. This book and the guidance of the Holy Spirit through Jen’s words helped to realize it is because I’m trying to do too much and not following God’s perfect design for rest. I will never be the same. Thank you Jen for your obedience to the Lord for getting these beautiful words out to change my life and the life of so many other women who are just barely getting by and not actually LIVING.

So practical!

This book provides tangible strategies to quit the rat race. I felt peace listening to it!

everything i never knew i needed to hear

i started reading because i’m a fan of Jess. i had no idea i struggled with rest until i found myself crying at every single chapter because she so gently helped me uncover the exhaustion i’ve been carrying in the name of “love” and “care for others”. there’s so much healing to be had but im so grateful this book showed me what i need to work on and gave me easy steps to take to begin that healing journey with the Lord.

More relatable than I expected

I had been working through issues I needed to deal with but had started feeling better. But I was still more tired than I expected. So when I saw this book, I jumped at it. I realized I was emotionally tired which I attribute to not journaling after therapy as I knew I should but didn’t make room for. This book made me think more about making time for myself. Mainly so I could be the person I wanted to be for myself and my family. Jess reading her book made me more likely to finish the book because of her conversational style of reading.

Could have used this 20yr ago

Loved the audio voice & stories, self disclosure! As a 58 yr old I survived the season with 2 kids, divorced, full-time military career & this would have really helped me through!

Powerful Message

This book is probably the loudest message we need to hear in our culture of tired women other than the gospel itself. Jess beautifully weaves practical advice supported with scripture for why we need to adopt a culture or rest instead of living life exhausted. It’s so impactful I bought 10 copies and have been handing them out like candy. Don’t miss this book if you want to live your life fully awake to the goodness and abundance Jesus has for us.

Just what I needed

Loved this book and just what I needed to hear in this stage of life. Such great truth and actual ways to evaluate your life
