Careers, Babies and Botox: Pressures On American Women To “Do It All”

  • Summary

  • Careers, Babies & Botox is about the trajectory of American women to “do it all”. Women today are expected to get an education, have children, a successful career, manage a household, while staying fit and looking youthful. In 2004, my guest Jennifer Wallace-a Holistic Nurse Practitioner spearheaded The Holistic Wellness Program at NYU Fertility Center to address the stress of Infertility & IVF. In 2008, she became a mom and returned to her home state of MA where she presently works in Aesthetic Dermatology. Jennifer believes, “We are bombarded with icons like Angelina Jolie, who have a full career, raise a big family and remain stunningly beautiful. This isn't a realistic existence for most women. Yet Jolie has become the standard marketed image of a truly “successful woman”. Jennifer has also seen the pressures to “doing it all” rob women of their self worth when the “goal” isn't achieved. Can having it all sometimes mean letting something go or being open to doing it differently
