For too long, women have been expected to accept unfairly labor-intensive, functionally unsustainable deals in all areas of work and life and to somehow just make up the difference by working harder, optimizing better, and, when that fails, 'self-care'.

Introduction
Despite advancements in gender equality, the world is still systemically unfair for women.
The gender pay gap, alongside disparities in domestic labor and childcare, means that women are constantly juggling to try to keep up.
Corinne Low is an economist whose research focuses on the economics of gender and discrimination.
In her 2025 book, Having It All, Low delves into how and why life is so tough for modern women, and why it's so important to find a balance, even if that means making scary decisions.
Drawing on her own experience of working, having children, and eventually getting a divorce, Low provides practical tips for how to find happiness, using real-life testimonies to highlight her guidance.
