When Success Feels Like Failure

What happens when you achieve everything society tells you to want-and it still isn't enough? Picture a woman at the pinnacle of American power, advising the Secretary of State on global crises, yet lying awake at night worrying about her teenage son spiraling back home. This wasn't hypothetical failure to plan properly or marry the right partner. This was the collision between two fundamental human needs: meaningful work and caring for people you love. When that article hit The Atlantic in 2012, it didn't just go viral-it detonated. Over 2.7 million people read it, not because it offered easy answers, but because it named something millions had felt but couldn't articulate: the system isn't broken for women. It was designed without them in mind.
