Mention the word guilt to any woman, and you'll likely get a heavy sigh. Even women who feel fulfilled often struggle to make peace with the demands of modern life. As both working and stay-at-home moms can attest, the expectations of women have risen dramatically in recent decades. Research also shows that single women with no children feel guilty about working after hours while their male counterparts do not relate at all to such feelings.
As a result, many women overcompensate and overapologize while the guilt dampens the joy of motherhood, other relationships, and professional accomplishments. Let Go of the Guilt will help women peel back the layers of emotions and cultural and spiritual expectations that make it difficult for them to navigate the complexities of having multiple roles, dreams, and demands in life.
