Publisher's summary

If you're like countless other women today, you probably feel overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, anxious, stressed, frustrated, or unsatisfied. You may be taking on an abundance of emotional labor-tending to others' needs at the expense of your own. If you've spent your whole life trying to please and manage other peoples' experience, it's time to speak your truth out loud, stand in your own shoes, and live an authentic life-rather than just behave.

Written by therapist and spiritual teacher Nancy Colier, The Emotionally Exhausted Woman offers the validation, emotional support, and empowering skills you've been craving. You'll discover insights grounded in self-respect and awareness, to help you be on your own side and uncover your deepest psychological, spiritual, and emotional needs without feeling guilt, shame, or judgment. You'll learn why you are feeling depleted, why you take care of others at the expense of taking care of yourself, and how to develop a deeper form of self-care beyond the temporary respite of a spa retreat, bubble bath, or manicure. Finally, you'll nurture greater awareness of what you truly need to achieve lasting vitality and fulfillment.

This empowering guide will help you gain a newfound awareness of your own needs, and find the courage to live a life that both nourishes and inspires you.

Good book.

I enjoyed this book. Nothing in it was mind blowing to me but it was comforting hearing stories from other women who feel similar as I do. It’s a good reminder to take care of myself and why it feels like such a struggle most of the time.

Love yourself first.

This book was the first book to self love that I have ever read. I have always read books on how to improve, change, look better and feel better. For the first time, I have found that being myself is worth more that being someone else. If you have ever been told or thought that you are not good enough, and that you should be like your…blah blah blah. Then read ( or listen to) this book and start your journey to self acceptance. The narrator has a great voice as well.

The simple truth

I like fact that book tells many different scenarios in women’s life. Simple truth we often don’t want to share. Helped me feel not alone way of thinking and made feelings feel valid as a woman.

BEST gift you can YOURSELF!!!

This book is so powerful I’ve listened to it three times:) There is a wealth of information and each time I pick up something new and it continues to remind me to put myself first. It is so worth listening to. You will want to listen to it over and over again! I wish I had this 20 years ago.

Permission to change

Loved this book! I am learning to stop taking care of others and focus on myself, giving myself permission to care for and focus on me. Thank you!

The Book Every Woman Questioning Why “Self Care” just isn’t working.

This book is a deep journey into looking at who, and why, you are the woman you are today. It looks at social conditioning of women in a myriad of ways. And it offers not only permission to discard who we’ve been told to be, but urgently demands that we stop looking outside of ourselves for the answers to our most deeply held questions. It demands us to look within with compassion so that we can truly meet, hold and respect the women we truly are.

My daily thoughts are in this book!!!

Great listen!!! If you struggle with emotional exhaustion this is a great book that points out why we are the way we are, but also letting us know it is ok to ruffle some feathers sometimes.

Great book for all women

This was a great book to listen to to remind myself that I have a voice and opinion that is important and that self care needs to happen from the inside out.
