Product Description
Finding the right balance between career and motherhood is one of the most stressful, heart-wrenching challenges facing women today. Torn between the need to nurture and the need to work, many women yearn for a way to have the best of both worlds. Now, in Flex Time, author Jacqueline Foley offers a refreshing, forthright approach to getting the life you want—by changing the way you work. Based on her personal experience and interviews with over one hundred women across North America, Foley guides you step-by-step through devising a flexible work schedule that’s right for you, your partner, and your children and making it a reality. Flex Time covers every aspect—emotional, logical, practical, professional—of planning and implementing your personal vision, showing you how to:
• Create your own idea of the perfect work/family balance
• Figure out what kind of flexible work arrangement is right for you
• Prepare a compelling proposal for flexible work and pitch it to your boss
• Adjust to taking one foot off the career or job track
• Juggle flexible work and the needs of your kids, and much more.
Dealing with the hectic, exhausting pace of working full-time while raising your children is no longer your only option. Flex Time offers the support you need to go after what you want and the inspiration to realize your dream of a better life for you and your children.

This book has helped me to better understand my options as well as give me the confidence needed to pursue my career and motherhood goals.
Once the baby arrives I guess I will know how helpful the book really was, but so far, it has provided me with a lot of valuable information.
