Publisher's Summary

Today’s professional women are tired of feeling pressured to lean in and have it all. Mainstream messages have turned our choice to pursue professional achievement into a directive. As a result, many of us are chasing after careers and accomplishments that we may not truly want, at the cost of our families, health, and happiness.

Instead of striving to have it all, it’s time to have just what we want. In Leaning Out, self-proclaimed “average” working woman Monica Pierce:

  • Shares her own story of how her professional ambition changed, once she admitted she didn’t actually want to “have it all”
  • Highlights thought-provoking connections to scientific, philosophical, and social concepts that explain why so many of us are reluctant to lean in
  • Offers plenty of insight and practical tips to help you right-size your life

Leaning Out is a must-listen for women who are tired of today’s one-sided messages and looking for an alternative perspective.
