westernstephanie 's review for:
Designing Your Life: Build a Life that Works for You
by Bill Burnett
I thought this book might make me feel even more stuck as a somewhat frustrated SAHM. It didn't--it was actually really motivating and offers a lot of helpful insights for reframing how I think about life/career stuff. I loved it for what it was, and absolutely recommend it, but there are two things to know going in:
1. The material originated as a course for kids graduating from Stanford. It's geared towards people operating with at least some financial/personal stability.
2. For women, I'd recommend reading it along with Lean In, because it doesn't address how workplace/life design can play out differently for women. (The authors do seem to be aware though, because their website offers workshops and retreats specifically for women.)
