"Bye-Bye Boardroom" looks into the minds and hearts of modern women who have made the decision to become stay-at-home moms. With comic relief Type-A former professional whiz kid Rachel Hamman shares the intimate secrets of her first days as a carpool-driving mom, then opens her book to the real-life adventures of other young mothers who confess their deepest thoughts about the choices they have made to leave their corporate life for a truer mission. As it redefines "Women’s Lib" with a laugh for a new generation, "Bye-"Bye Boardroom" gives stay-at-home moms a true voice, a sense of community, and a chance to participate in the humorous "group therapy" the contributors offer in the frustrations, utter chaos, and yes, joy they encounter as mothers with their children. In the end, the book validates their decisions. Be it at the helm of a company, behind the instruments of an airplane, chairing a black-tie ball, or nurturing their children, the book proves that this generation of women has the freedom to choose their own path on any given day. They are held back only by their own internal dialogue and self-imposed boundaries. Through "Bye-Bye Boardroom," women can laugh and cry together and move on to find balance in their lives.
