Reviews"Navigating the stages of pregnancy and balancing a career while pregnant can be daunting. Stephanie tackles all the ups and downs by sharing the moving personal experiences from a breadth of individuals, as well as her own motherhood journey and the career balancing act that came along with it." - Katherine Schwarzenegger Pratt, author of The Gift of Forgiveness and Creator, BDA Baby(tm) " Carry Strong is an important reflection of real women and real life and real stories--an authentic reference for the most exciting and anxious time in a woman's life." - Libby Wadle, CEO, J.Crew and Madewell "In Carry Strong , Stephanie Kramer normalizes the challenges that so many women face in the workplace, from considering a pregnancy through being a working mother. Kramer offers a refreshing perspective based on research and anecdotes on how we can harness the power of motherhood to achieve personal and professional success." - Dr. Sarah Oreck, MD MS, reproductive psychiatrist " Carry Strong is the missing link between books that celebrate the new feminism and bemoan the challenges that Mothers, particularly those of us in the paid workforce, still face. If we normalize, document, and celebrate every stage of parenthood, including preconception planning, then caregiving will become better supported in our society." - Leslie Forde, CEO and founder, Mom's Hierarchy of Needs "Stephanie has forged a new path for women in the workplace, who often grapple with pregnancy, fertility struggles, and loss privately. Rooted in research and loaded with compelling stories, Carry Strong should be required reading for the future of work." - Claudia Reuter, author of Yes, You Can Do This! and host of The 43 Percent podcast " Carry Strong is creating a balanced conversation and important progress for Gen Z around pregnancy and work, ourselves included." - Lola McAllister and Pilar McDonald, co-founders, Project Matriarchs " Carry Strong is the right mix of inspiration and perspiration that will change the way we look at pregnancy and work as concurrent to our careers. It gives words and tools for something we don't talk about--with heart." - Joan Kuhl, author of Dig Your Heels In "This is the book I wish I would have had when I was pregnant with my daughter. I'll be adding it to every baby shower gift from now on! There are a wealth of books about motherhood, but Stephanie's focuses on the critical intersection of the workplace and new motherhood. Our identities as mothers and as professionals get so mixed up during this time and Stephanie guides us through, names the feelings and phases, and shares the stories of women who have gotten through the "messy middle" of blending those identities." - Aya Kanai, Head of Editorial and Creative, Google Shopping " Carry Strong is an important and necessary reimagining of pre-conception, pregnancy, and work, drawing on robust research and compelling personal stories. Stephanie's narrative-centered approach amplifies the voices of those who have gone through it to help create a powerful blueprint for others." - Kimberly Seals Allers, author of The Big Letdown and founder, Irth App

SynopsisHaving a baby and a career can feel challenging on the best of days, nearly impossible on the worst. From figuring out how to tell your boss you're pregnant to sucking in your belly bump all day long at work, to working even harder to prove your worth, there's a lot to navigate if you're newly pregnant or are even thinking about getting pregnant - and trying to juggle it all can leave you overwhelmed. It doesn t have to be this way. You can do it all, just not at the same time. And not alone. Carry Strong offers a new approach to working motherhood that wholeheartedly embraces pregnancy as an integral and concurrent part of a woman's career - and flips the script on a cultural constant to re-frame pregnancy as an opportunity to retain, instead of lose, women in the workplace. Drawing from four original studies plus hundreds of inspirational interviews, executive and career advocate Stephanie Kramer outlines essential principles for navigating your pregnancy and work simultaneously. With powerful, real-life stories and expert advice, she shows you how to embrace perspective, shed harmful scripts about so-called balance, cultivate community in the workplace, communicate your needs, and navigate the shift in identity from working woman to working mother. Along the way, you'll discover the major career considerations you'll make at each unique phase of your pregnancy, from before the moment you decide you want to be a working mom through your decision to return to work after baby, if at all. Just because you carry something well doesn't mean it isn't heavy. For every soon-to-be mom, Carry Strong encourages you to carry your bump with a positive tilt, even if your hands are on your lower back. This motherhood manifesto shows how to unburden yourself from societal and self-imposed pressures and set yourself up for success for your pregnancy and for your future., Pregnancy is a Profound Journey. Navigating it while working can be a push and pull between a desire for privacy and the need for support, but it doesn't have to be. Carry Strong offers a new approach to transform your pregnancy years at work into a career opportunity to embrace with confidence. Through original research, expert advice, and heartfelt stories from CEOs, Olympic athletes, and hundreds of amazing mothers across the country, mother, executive, and professor Stephanie Kramer creates a groundswell of support to navigate your pregnancy and work simultaneously. She outlines essential principles to find perspective, create your balance, cultivate community, communicate your needs, and embrace your shift in identity throughout each phase of pregnancy, starting with the moment you decide you want to become a working mom-to-be. In Carry Strong, Kramer flips the script. This isn't about powering through pregnancy at work. It's about being powerful and pregnant at work.
