The Mommy Manifesto: How to Use Our Power to Think Big, Break Limitations and Achieve Success

by Kim Lavine

Overview

It's time for a new woman's revolution, but this time it's not political—it's personal.

Forget the status quo; there's never been a better time to take control of your career, your life, and your economic future—starting today. With the American economy struggling, the New Economy is emerging and this time moms are in charge, controlling $8.5 trillion in annual consumer spending. Moms are not only the "new sexy" because moms are powerful and power is sexy, but moms are also the "new geeks," as the top early adopters of the new technologies that are revolutionizing the world.

The time has come to redefine this mom thing and it doesn't involve guilt, how thin you are, what kind of car you drive, or how clean and well-decorated your house is. Learn how to kick fear to the curb and take your share of success. Turn off your insecurities and discover the secret to getting what you want from life, and getting other people to help you get it.

In the New Economy, power is transferring from the hands of the few to the hands of the many, and the barriers to entry into the world of business are falling in epic ways. Economic sustainability is the newest social cause and women are its architects, rewriting the way business gets done while simultaneously driving product innovation that is creating billions of dollars of opportunity in an economy in dire need of transformation.

At the same time, the new tools of social media are giving women the ability to communicate with each other across the world in real time. The Mommy Manifesto will show you how to master these new technologies to take your personal life and your business to the next level.

In the New Economy, you're either part of the revolution or part of the problem. Now is the time to take control of your financial destiny! The Mommy Manifesto will show you how.
