Norah O'Donnell

Norah O’Donnell has been a career journalist for over a decade and a mother for only a few years but it didn't take her very long to understand that the notion of “work-life balance” really is a misnomer. Things are hardly ever in “balance:” career-oriented women often spending their days prioritizing and re-prioritizing as they’re overtaken by the day’s events. In a funny, candid and poignant presentation, O’Donnell discusses:

• The sacrifices of today’s working women and mothers
• Insight and solutions that allow them to take the pressure off themselves to achieve anything approximating balance
• How to live in the moment at work and at home—and make it all work
