      I just love bossy women.

      I could be around them all day. To me, bossy is not a pejorative term at all. It means somebody’s passionate and engaged and ambitious and doesn’t mind leading.

      – Amy Poehler

      To C & S, may you grow up to be bossy.

      There’s a popular notion out there that the height of being a modern woman is to achieve the perfect balance between all of life’s big-bucket categories. We hear the idea “work/life balance” so often we don’t stop to recognize that the inherent insinuation in that phrase is that work is somehow separate from life or even the opposite of it. We keep hearing we can “have it all,” “do it all,” and “be it all”— and although none of us have ever personally experienced this balancing act first hand, maybe we keep repeating it, hoping if we say it enough times, we will summon the concept into existence.

      But I believe the real mark of being a modern woman is to know that everything costs something…and then to confidently decide which costs we’re willing to pay — and which we aren’t.

      When I first met Nicole Feliciano over breakfast in Los Angeles, she described this experience: “We have these burners all going at the same time…family, romance, career, friends…and we try so hard to keep them all going at once. But the reality is something always seems to be burning, but there are other things coming out perfectly.”

      Maybe the truth is, we can have it all…just not all at once. And that’s good news. The life of a mother is filled with stages that demand imbalance — times when we need to turn up the heat on some areas in our life and turn it down in others in order to be the type of moms we want to be. Continuous balance in all areas is hardly ever what we really want.

      Nicole went on, “At some point, each of those things is going to win and each one will lose. You have to embrace that you can only do a few things really well at one particular time.”
