An interesting, heartening read about successful working parents

Lauren Laverne

As a busy CEO, I was inspired by the hundreds of people Vanderkam studied who found ample time for career, family, and self in the same 168 hours available to everyone, each week. If my entire team read this book, we would all benefit

For many years I've wanted to see reflected in our collective conversation what I know to be true in women's lives: that many of us are happily combining work and motherhood, and loving both. Laura Vanderkam has written the book that's been sorely missing, and she's done so with an impassioned, eloquent voice, important new research, and the warmth of a dear friend

I'm a longtime fan of Laura Vanderkam's insightful work - her recommendations for getting the most out of every day are often counterintuitive but always realistic and manageable.

Thanks to her findings, I'll never look at my weekly calendar the same way again

Gretchen Rubin, author of Better Than Before and The Happiness Project

This book could have been titled How to Be a Superhero, because that's how it makes you feel and act after reading it. Vanderkam's curiosity for high performance and what makes it possible is infectious. Packed with research from real lives and tips for real change, this book is sure to help women around the world discover their own path to success

Thought -provoking ... Laura's book is refreshingly cheerful in a field saturated by misery-lit. I was sceptical, but Vanderkam is alarmingly inspirational both in person and prose
