You are not alone. Women everywhere are burned out, carrying a load that has become too heavy to bear—even though they do a great job pretending they can keep it all together.

• Renew your sense of purpose and personal vision
• Rediscover your value and worth
• Gain greater focus and resilience
• Align your personal and professional priorities
