Lexington Community Education presents: The Libra Solution: An Evening with Lisa D'Annolfo Levey

How can couples - living in a world sped up to fever pitch - raise strong and healthy children, enjoy career success, and feel deep personal and professional satisfaction all while making time and space for what energized them?  Lisa D'Annolfo Levey's forthcoming book The Libra Solution:  Shedding Excess and Redefining Success at Work and at Home  shows women and men a way of living, working and parenting that allows them to enjoy, rather than feel perpetually overwhelmed by, the pace of their lives.  Offering a fresh look at the work and life juggling act, Levey brings together conversations with professional successfully combining careers and family life, insights from a 20-year consulting career, and her own very personal story of raising sons in a dual-career marriage.  Levey has consulted to some of the most admired organization in the world on women's leadership and the work-life issues of employees.  Clients have included in the United Nations, Exxon Mobil, IBM, Johnson & Johnson, The Campbell Soup Company and UBS, among many others.  Levey, a Lexington resident, and her husband have been featured in magazine and on ABC News with Charlie Gibson in stories about a partnership approach to parenting and professional work.  She provides an informed, pragmatic, and ultimately very hopeful perspective on the complexities inherent in combining professional work and engaged parenting.  She offers a vision of how to bring down the intensity and infuse more joy and sustainability into our lives at work and at home.
