Sheryl Sandberg's very bad week continues

ltqirexmvagznjaa0mvt.jpg
In a December 1 appearance at Brooklyn's Barclays Center to promote her new book, Becoming, Michelle Obama said what we've all been thinking about the concept of having it all: it's a great big lie.

According to Touré (via The Cut), when asked about work life balance, leaning in, and having it all, Obama replied, "That whole 'so you can have it all.' Nope, not at the same time. That's a lie. And it's not always enough to lean in, because that shit doesn't work all the time."

The concept of "leaning in" was the subject of a 2013 book, Lean In: Women, Work and the Will to Lead, by Sheryl Sandberg, COO at Facebook. In the five years since the book's release, much has been written and debated about the idea, which Sandberg herself recognizes hasn't really made much impact yet.
