Why do women find work-life balance so difficult? How come having it all such an elusive quest? Why haven't women achieved equality yet in the authority ranks? Creators Jodi Ecker Detjen, Michelle A. Waters, and Kelly Watson probe these questions and even more in this highly expected new reserve: The Orange LineTM: A Woman's Guide to Integrating Job, Family & Life. Through interviews with 118 college-educated women, they file the varied job tales and day-to-day anecdotes in the ongoing work-life struggle. They also discover a cutting edge new type of thinking: Women are holding themselves back with outdated ideals and rigid guidelines for how to act. Naming this limiting idea system The Female FilterTM, the creators call on women to reframe their assumptions, shed their guilt, and pursue their vocations with enthusiasm. The creators provide tools to help women remove this filtration so they can see more obviously to new job paths including work, family, and themselves. It's the most radical call to biceps and triceps for women in decades, but rather than asking government authorities and organizations to improve, the authors encourage women to look inward to assert their power.
