Also, like you said, it's not always possible for the husband to take a back seat to the wife's career spikes and vice versa because they each have their own life goals (and their goals together as a family).

You can say, "I'll lean in, I'll take the job, blah blah blah." But somebody still has to pick up the kids, make dinner and generally be a parent. So you can't "lean in" without a good bit of planning and resources. And even with a husband's help, your schedules/life goals have to match up at the exact right time to make all this work. That's not always possible.Annenoreply@blogger.com
