And Anyway, Who Wears A Tiara On

I Hope You Find True Meaning, Contentment, And Passion In Your Life. I Hope You Navigate The Difficult Times And Come Out With Greater Strength And Resolve. I Hope You Find Whatever Balance You Seek With Your Eyes Wide Open. And I Hope That You - Yes, You - Have The Ambition To Lean In To Your Career And Run The World. Because The World Needs You To Change It.

There Are Really Good Reasons To Leave The Workforce Or Work Less Or Take A Different Job When You Want To Be With Your Children. I Just Want Women - And Men - To Make That Choice Once They Have The Child. Not Years In Advance, Because... They Don't Get The Right Opportunities. They Give Up Before They Even Start.

I Wish I Could Just Go Tell All The Young Women I Work With, All These Fabulous Women, 'believe In Yourself And Negotiate For Yourself. Own Your Own Success.' I Wish I Could Tell That To My Daughter. But It's Not That Simple.

Framing The Issue Of Work-life Balance - As If The Two Were Dramatically Opposed - Practically Ensures Work Will Lose Out. Who Would Ever Choose Work Over Life?

I Would Love To Meet J.k. Rowling And Tell Her How Much I Admire Her Writing And Am Amazed By Her Imagination. I Read Every 'harry Potter' Book As It Came Out And Looked Forward To Each New One. I Am Rereading Them Now With My Kids And Enjoying Them Every Bit As Much. She Made Me Look At Jelly Beans In A Whole New Way.
