Many women are trying so hard to live up to someone else’s idea of success that we lose ourselves. “What if the point isn’t to ‘crush it’ in life, but to savor it?” asks Vanessa Loder. With The Soul Solution, this sought-after women’s leadership expert shares a powerful and practical resource to help any woman who feels overwhelmed and exhausted to recover your true self — and your joy in living.

When we chase the wrong goals — or even the right goals in an unsustainable way—we burn out. In The Soul Solution, Loder offers an essential guide to help busy women slow down, gain clarity on your core values, and learn to follow the “energetic breadcrumbs” your soul offers to bring you back to your deepest purpose. Here she teaches you frameworks such as “5 Signs You’re Out of Alignment” and SAT (Surrender, Allow, Trust) that empower you to tune out the noise of cultural expectations around how women “should” behave — and to tune directly into your heart.

“Women are being called to awaken to a life of inner peace, self-compassion, appreciation, joy, and love,” says Loder. “It starts with being fiercely loyal to the wisdom and truth of your soul.” Filled with practical guidance and inspiring personal stories, here is a nonstrategic, nonlinear — but entirely effective — journey to help you reclaim your feminine, intuitive power to fulfill your most meaningful and satisfying aspirations.
