Series: Inflection Point with Lauren Schiller
Length: 53:58

Our guests are Anne-Marie Slaughter, the author of "Unfinished Business" (and the infamous Atlantic article "Why Women Still Can't Have It All"), and Simone Marean of Girls Leadership. We all want our sons and daughters to grow up strong and independent, but how do we ensure that 'having it all' doesn't mean 'doing it all'?

We all want our daughters to grow up strong and independent, but how do we ensure that 'having it all' doesn't mean 'doing it all'?

Our guest Anne-Marie Slaughter started this conversation with her polarizing article in the Atlantic "Why Women Still Can't Have It All." She continues the conversation in her new book "Unfinished Business" where she says that for true equality, "men's roles really have to change, they have to be care-givers as well as breadwinners."

And Simone Marean, Executive Director and Co-Founder of the non-profit organization Girls Leadership shares how to set your daughter up for success without burdening her with a fear of failure.
