Smart Choices That Will Change Your Life: Set Limits and Gain Control of Your Personal and Professional Life

When Does Caring Turn into Carrying? Smart Choices that Will Change Your Life helps women learn how not to carry the burden-emotional and financial, at home and at work-in their relationships with others, and how to start truly caring for themselves. Speaking to thousands of women across the country, Hattie Hill listened to the problems they had in reconciling their original expectations of marriage and career with the realities of today`s world. Smart, high-achieving women have an I-can-do-it attitude, but in their determination to accomplish things, they over commit, which often results in burnout, resentment, and frustration. Smart Choices that Will Change Your Life explores the dilemma of today`s women who shoulder a disproportionate share of the load. Hattie Hill takes the reader on a journey of self-discovery with seven smart women who crossed the line, carried their men, carried their families, and even carried their business associates and co-workers. Smart Choices that Will Change Your Life tells readers not only why, but also how these women instituted the changes, one day at a time, that revolutionized their lives.
