The “girl boss” is dead. We’re done urging women to work harder, push harder and “lean in” harder just for equal treatment. While this shift is too long in coming, the increasingly popular alternative of “lazy girl jobs” isn’t the solution either. Our culture has created a false dichotomy between the hyper-driven career woman and the uninterested passion-chaser – and women are hurting because of it.
It’s time to fundamentally rethink how we approach women in the professional world. At root, this is not about men versus women or careers versus passions. It’s about strengths, diversity, and personal growth. It’s about individuals.
