The Balance Dilemma Podcast
Discontented domestic engineer… frazzled, guilt ridden and unhappy exec… what’s the right balance and is “balance” even possible?
The Balance Dilemma Podcast is NPR’s “How I Built This” meets “This American [Woman’s] Life.” From bestselling authors to global company presidents, podcast guests share personal stories, from “I got everything I wanted and it’s making me miserable” to “You may have it all, but not at the same time.”
Sheryl Sandberg fine-tuned her mindset and crafted Lean In; Clinton staffer Anne Marie Slaughter left her job due to family issues, which became her ah-ha moment, spawning Unfinished Business. The struggles of everyday women are surprisingly similar to those of these Google execs and D.C. elites—but does leaning in or leaving your dream job solve the problem?
Maura and Christie explore available tools to address modern struggles and examine what everyday women are discussing and facing.
