Call for Submissions The New Having It All Seeks Submissions for Publication WRITE FOR US: JOIN THE CONVERSATION The New Having It All has launched a campaign to further the national conversation around work-life and work-family balance. The campaign is designed to bring all women into the debate, by offering the opportunity to have their thoughts published, disseminated and collated into one source. By answering the following broad inquiry, individuals have the opportunity to add their voices to an issue that has enormous implications for women of all ages, incomes and ethnicities. What does work-life balance mean to you? Your writing may address questions, such as: How does work-life balance factor into your overall success? How do you define success for yourself, personally, professionally? Do you consider work-life balance when planning for a future career or a career reinvention? Do you believe work-life balance can be achieved? Can women today have it all? We are collecting submissions from women in all walks of life, across the age spectrum, and in a wide variety of occupations and lifestyles. We wish to hear from women who work and those at home; married and single; with children and without; women in all parts of the country; students and mid-lifers. Submissions are posted on Blogging To Have It All, and select submissions will be published in print book format, projected for Fall, 2010, publication. Further details about this initiative and The New Having It All submission requirements can be found at http://www.thenewhavingitall.com. Please forward this announcement to the women in your life.

We live in a unique moment in history when women, for the first time, can decide how they wish to be in the world. Women can choose whether to have children; whether to have a life partner; whether to work inside or outside the home; and where to place their time and energies. We now have role models for nearly any life composite we wish to create. We feel less compelled to conform our lifestyle choices to societal expectations. Having it all is a reality for women today. And having it all does not mean doing it all. Rather, it is a new version of having it all, one where you carefully and consciously devise choices and strategies that reflect and enhance your own personal vision of an optimum life. Our Mission. The mission of The New Having It All is to help women make and optimize these choices. We focus on what it means for women to be successful, with a focus on role models, systems for success, milestones, and potential mishaps. Our discussions include issues surrounding work-life and work-family balance and integration because, in our experience, they represent the primary stumbling blocks that most frequently cause women to feel unsuccessful in their lives. What Makes Us Unique. There are three things that make The New Having It All unique among the various firms that address work-life balance issues: 1. We work with women in all walks of life, in all stages along the sequencing spectrum. This gives us a vantage point from which to understand the needs and concerns of each stage along the trajectory of women's lives. 2. We have no preconceived agenda for the women with whom we work. The New Having It All is based upon the premise that every woman must discover for herself what her all will be. Our role is to raise the right questions; develop and demonstrate the best tools; propose alternative courses of action; provide research and analysis; and offer the benefits of our own experiences and the knowledge we have garnered in working with scores of women in similar situations. 3. Our sessions offer a unique blend of motivation, inspiration and personal development on one hand, and hard data, research and analysis, and tangible tools on the other. We are experienced speakers and teachers and connect with our audiences in a way that sends each participant from our sessions with a greater sense of optimism about her ability to define her all--and a practical road map for achievement.
