In How Not to Be a Superwoman, Nilanjana Bhowmick explores the immense pressure women face to excel in every role-- as mothers, career women, partners and friends-- and the toll this pursuit takes on their mental health and happiness. Her compelling work unveils the raw, real stories of diverse women who have broken free from the relentless cycle of perfectionism, and offers insightful, practical advice on achieving balance and joy that comes from embracing one's true self. Through a feminist lens, she confronts and rejects society's unrealistic expectations while advocating for a life of fulfilment, self-compassion and genuine empowerment. This is a must-read for women seeking to liberate themselves from the exhausting superwoman ideal and embrace a more self-loving, balanced way of living.
