6/24-Can Women REALLY Have it All?

The job, family, self care and everything else!  What does work-life balance REALLY mean?  Dr. Anne-Marie Slaughter in the Atlantic Magazine a couple days ago gave her answer: a resounding NO! Princeton University professor, Public Policy scholar and public servant shared her story; and its generated lots of conversation.  But its not your mother’s conversation anymore, or is it?  Perhaps you can recall your Mom chiding you,”...just because you can do it doesn't mean you should!”

This week's show is a conversation for YOU. We will talk about the issue and an alternative way to think about all this. Listen then join the ongoing conversation on www.facebook.com/stressreliefradio.
