And those stories are in the book.
All those stories of my failed first dates with other women.
Yeah, exactly.
And that's me.
Well, I am, you know, really, really supportive of women and girls and strengthening women and girls and and getting more equality in the workplace, getting more equality at home.
And I feel so strongly that if we don't
find ways for women to stay in the workforce.
It makes it really hard for the people that come behind them.
It makes it hard for our kids to have, you know, the role models of women who are really doing things in the world and and sharing their gifts with the world.
And so I feel really passionately about this, especially now that I'm a mom of two daughters and a son, um, I've raised them pretty much gender neutral in the sense of not assuming, you know, my girl
Would want a specific color, that my son would only want to play with cars or anything like that.
So we have a kind of a grand petri dish in our own home in terms of how that evolves.
And I just feel so strongly that, you know, women can do and be anything.
And I want my girls to be raised in an environment where, you know, people don't just always come up to them and tell them how pretty or cute they are, but they also compliment them on their intelligence and their strength.
One of the reasons I'm so passionate about working moms is because we we we sort of have been selling this myth to women and we feel like in our generation of feminism is about choice and you have a choice of whether to stay home or have kids.
Ninety percent of women who stay home with kids eventually want to go back to work and way more than half of them can't ever find positions again.
And it's so important for women to keep a foot in the door so that they have options later on.
I'm not even gonna talk about the financial aspects of that and the financial security, you know, if if there's a failed marriage or a sudden death or anything like that, but just for personal satisfaction, it's so important.
book is really about how to thrive professionally and personally.
for women.
