When two parents have demanding careers, striking the balance between work and family can be a challenge. But when those parents share work and parenting duties equally, the whole family benefits, according to Silicon Valley executives Sharon Meers and Joanna Strober. They’ll join us to talk about their new book “Getting to 50/50: How Working Parents Can Have It All.”

Guests:

Sharon Meers, co-author of "Getting to 50/50"; leader of enterprise strategy for Magento, eBay's global e-commerce platform; former managing director and co-chair of the Investment Division's Women's Network at Goldman Sachs

Joanna Strober, co-author of "Getting to 50/50"; founder and CEO of KurboHealth, a mobile and online weight control company for children, teens and families
