Another writer, who dismisses balance as something only acrobats can do, nonetheless tells the story of how Melanie Healey, a marketing manager for Procter & Gamble, renegotiated a better deal. Recently returned from maternity leave, Healey was offered a special assignment from her boss. A classic Don Draper type, he was famous for starting meetings before 7:00 a.m. and leaving late. That wouldn’t work for Healey and her new baby.

She agreed to take the assignment as long as he agreed to her new hours. “I am going to get here at eight in the morning. So you can’t start a meeting before eight,” she told him. “I am going to be home at six o’clock. So you can’t start a meeting after five that doesn’t end by five to six so I can be home by six.” The boss was surprised by her demands but didn’t want to lose her help. He agreed.21

Striking a new balance is possible. The trouble is, we fail to achieve it because we don’t always believe so and thus never even try.
