I started reading Lean In by the Facebook COO Sheryl Sandberg. My first reaction is: Mothers, read this book and get your daughter to read it. Fathers, brothers and sons - you should at least try reading it.
I think every woman whether she is a stay-at-home mom or a powerful executive will learn something about herself by reading this book. Ms. Sandberg uses her own experience and experiences of women she's interacted with to show how different societal expectations program women to behave differently from men in the same professional and academic situations. She has a powerful message to girls and women everywhere, think about what you would do if you were not afraid?
I would encourage everyone not to pass this title by. It is truly inspiring and will motivate you to re-examine how you see yourself and what internal barriers you set up that limit your potential.
