The Ambition Spectrum | An Honest Look at Career + Motherhood

New Episode + Giveaway (@atomicmoms on Friday 6/29). Guest co-host Jessica Coulter, named in Business Insider's "30 Most Creative Women in Advertising", offers her #1 tip for women who want to have families and charge hard in their careers. And journalist Elizabeth Wallace returns to celebrate her brand new book, The Ambition Decisions: What Women Know About Work, Family, and the Path to Building a Life (June 2018), co-written with Hana Schank, and based on their popular essay series for The Atlantic. This episode touches on it all, from professional envy to limit setting to fertility treatments to lesbian bath tub gin. Raised by high achieving single moms, Elizabeth and I share our own complicated relationships with ambition and our 90's power suit shopping trips with our moms. There are fun callbacks to last year’s conversation (2017), and you’ll just have to wait to hear our scoop on Meghan Markle, Duchess of Sussex, Northwestern University's sorority sister extraordinaire. We are giving away three signed copies of The Ambition Decisions on Friday 6/29. Join us on Instagram: @atomicmoms, Facebook, and our Facebook community page for details!
