Summary

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.

Is this how God intended for us to live? How do we enter into the abundant life God offers us? Best-selling author, pastor, speaker, podcast host, and leader Jess Connolly talks all about this and her journey of writing, “Tired of Being Tired” helped her discover a new way of living.

She is relatable, honest, practical, wise, and such a breath of breath air.
