Beschreibung

Women are told, "You can have it all." You can be an incredible mom and have an incredible career at the same time. But nobody explains how to actually pull this off--until now.

In Ambitious Mother, Dr. Anne Welsh--a licensed psychologist and mom of four--offers a refreshing perspective for overwhelmed moms. Welsh asks, "What are you truly ambitious for?" and invites readers to shed societal expectations, name what they really want, and pursue their own version of success. Readers will discover:

- Why being a working mom feels so hard and what we can do to change this.
- How to find their own version of ambition that fits their values.
- The difference between unhealthy striving and healthy striving and how to make the switch.
- The Three Ps--perfectionism, people-pleasing, and pretending--and how to shed these weights without lowering standards.
- How to navigate career choices as a mom.
- Inspiring stories about ambitious mothers, demonstrating that ambition comes in many forms.

Motherhood will change your ambition. As Welsh shares, you may discover that you are more ambitious than ever before, or ambitious in new and different ways. Ambitious Mother gives you permission to be as ambitious as you want to be. Permission to set down a few balls that you no longer want to juggle--and pick up others that you do. Permission to have the career and life you truly want.
