The Super Woman Syndrome has been plaguing women for quite some time now,and there has been no lack of efforts to effectively deal with it. Finally, a diverse group of dynamic professional women who have conquered the beast, have harnessed, compiled and produced a variety of effective, well balanced, realistic, high impact, results oriented strategies.This book is a master "tool kit" and definately a must have for success oriented females.

4.0 out of 5 stars The dreadful cycle many young women are in and needing to learn boundries., March 19, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Overcoming the Super Woman Syndrome (Paperback)
I have a presentation on this syndrome and feel there are some excellent points listed. The book is co-authored by several professional "Superwomen", and gives their tools which I found very helpful. It is so easy to fall victim to the Superwoman. Many women get caught up in this syndrome try to "do all" and "be all" until it begins to affect their health. Eastman provides some very helpful tools for women to overcome this cycle and teaches how to create a calmer life.

2.0 out of 5 stars Boring, Predictable & Generic Advice for Women, July 14, 2009
By 
Lisa Jackson "LJDesign" (Washington Terrace, Utah, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Overcoming the Super Woman Syndrome (Paperback)
This book does the opposite of what its title lets on. I had previously read, "The Superwoman Syndrome" by Marjorie Hansen Shaevitz (Mass Market Paperback - Jan 1, 1984). Marjorie's book actually helps women to see where they need to combat the feelings of inadequacy and feeling that they need to be able to do it all. She then helps women to figure out how to not be striving to be it all anymore, by delegating and giving up some things. Marjorie's book is still the best book on overcoming the superwoman syndrome. It is out of print, but buy it used. It will change your life!

In trying to help women, "Overcoming the Superwoman syndrome" inadvertently encourages women to strive harder to be "superwomen," by being able to be it all and do it all (because we would not want to leave out a single thing that could make us happy and fulfilled!) If it were written by one woman, it may have been better, but having each of these many women tell me what is the most important, I feel very inadequate, like I am not doing enough to be the perfect woman.

This book should be titled, "How to be a Superwoman by being the best professional woman and the best family woman you can be."
