Say no to hustle culture, and yes to a life of ease. From Lisa Hurley, founder of The Great Exhale, comes an inspiring guide to help you beat burnout, choose rest, and live a soft, fulfilling life.

Part memoir, part manifesto, part meditation manual, Space To Exhale is a motivational handbook that empowers you to remove your superhero cape, take a breath, and create lasting life-work balance. Grounded in Lisa’s well-earned wisdom; sprinkled with the warmth and wit she’s known for, this valuable resource invites you to curate a life filled with peace, joy, and love — and shows you exactly how to achieve it. Based on her belief that “Rest Is the New Success,” she encourages us all — especially Black women — to get off the treadmill of constant busyness: avoiding overdrive, and instead embracing under drive.

Lisa draws on her experience as a burnout survivor, community builder, and Reiki Master, recounting personal anecdotes about her trials — and her triumphs. With transparency, vulnerability, and a healthy dose of humor, she shares the tools that have helped her transform — and that can help you transform too.

Divided into three uplifting, insightful, and relatable sections, this book is filled with actionable advice, as well as affirmations, meditations, and (of course) breathing exercises. Lisa guides you on a life-changing journey to:

• KNOW YOURSELF: Remember who you are, align with your values, and celebrate your strengths.
• LOVE YOURSELF: Practice positive self-talk, select your close circle, and prioritize rest.
• BE YOURSELF: Show up authentically, protect your energy, and live a soft, centered, serene life.

Space To Exhale is a balm for the spirit. It brings solace to your soul. It’s the kind of book you can keep returning to as you manifest your ideal life, and move from merely surviving to vibrantly thriving.
