"This book is a gift. Gender equality, strong families, and successful economic and social policy all require us to reframe how we think about work and family. The Power Pause helps show us how, in a how-to format that mothers will love." --Ann-Marie Slaughter, CEO of New America and author of Unfinished Business, "This book is a gift. Gender equality, strong families, and successful economic and social policy all require us to reframe how we think about work and family. The Power Pause helps show us how, in a how-to format that mothers will love." --Ann-Marie Slaughter, CEO of New America and author of Unfinished Business "Neha is a powerful advocate for an underrepresented yet enormous segment of the mom population...They need her voice and encouragement now more than ever." --Eve Rodsky, New York Times bestselling author of Fair Play " The Power Pause reinforces that there's no one 'right' answer, instead giving mothers a more expansive way to think about ambition and family. Neha Ruch provides a clear guide to creating a rich, strategic family life so women can grow and thrive alongside their kids." --Dr. Aliza Pressman, New York Times bestselling author of The 5 Principles of Parenting "By dispelling myth after myth about time away from the traditional workforce, Neha Ruch offers a compelling solution to make careers more sustainable in the middle of a burnout epidemic and childcare crisis. In a culture that has told women for too long that they can't take their foot off the gas if they want to succeed, The Power Pause presents an original and game-changing way for a new generation to think about career shifts and family life as one part of a long and thriving journey." --Arianna Huffington, Founder & CEO, Thrive Global "Making women feel like they're alternately neglecting their families by working outside the home (or wasting their potential if they don't) is one of our culture's most insidious tricks: Many, if not most of us, are saddled with the resultant guilt and anxiety, which we then discharge on each other. Ruch offers an essential intervention--a deep breath to unhook from this programming and choose ourselves and each other instead." --Elise Loehnen, author of On Our Best Behavior, "This book is a gift.

Synopsis
INSTANT USA TODAY BESTSELLER! A paradigm-shifting guide to career breaks after kids that rebrands stay-at-home parenthood for a new generation of women and families. "So, what do you do ?" When Neha Ruch had to answer this seemingly innocent question for the first time after leaving her corporate job to care for her infant son, she drew a shameful blank. She couldn't find the words to describe this new stage of life she'd just embarked on. She wasn't a 1950s June Cleaver type, nor was she one of today's updated stereotypes. (Craft Project Mom? Exhausted-in-Sweatpants Mom?) How, then, was she to navigate this identity shift? Frustrated, Ruch embarked on a mission to rebrand the stay-at-home mother for a new generation of women who don't want to leave their ambition behind just because they decide to pause or change their careers post-kids. Her online community has become the leading voice and resource for women navigating this transition, and in her first book, The Power Pause, Ruch addresses all the questions women face at this inflection point: Can I afford to pause? Who am I without my career identity? How do I find meaning in the role? And can I ever transition back to paid work? With expert advice and diverse stories of stay-at-home mothers who buck every stereotype, as well as interactive exercises to help the reader plot a course for the long term, The Power Pause is an essential handbook for a new generation of caregivers., 'So, what do you do?'

    Ordered from USA and arrived to me in UK about 10 days later. Book appropriately packaged and mostly as described. Was missing the cd as listed but communication with the seller was friendly and polite if not a little confusing - partial refunds are only offered after you start the formal eBay return request process, they aren't capable of giving refunds after simple messaging to customer service. All in all though, great value and a positive transaction. Would interact again 👍

    Unfortunately I received a damaged book, the item and the package both were damaged and it was clearly evident its appearance that it happened during transit. The seller was very understanding and gave me a full refund for the damaged book, though it was no fault of their own. Other than the damage, the book was as described, the quality and condition aside from the damaged spot was like new. The cost of the book was reasonable. I would definitely purchase from the seller again.

    I recently purchased an item from this eBay seller, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. From the prompt communication to the fast shipping, everything was handled with utmost professionalism. The item arrived exactly as described and was well packaged to ensure its safety during transit. The seller was courteous and responsive, making the entire transaction smooth and hassle-free. I highly recommend this seller to anyone looking for quality products and excellent service.
