Oakland, CA (Vocus) March 10, 2010



Women are increasingly occupying the top rungs of the corporate ladder, earning advanced degrees, launching their own businesses, and serving as the major breadwinners of their families. The role of the woman has changed which has led to a change in the woman herself. In her groundbreaking book, Wander Woman: How High - Achieving Women Find Contentment and Direction (http://www. WanderWomanBook. com) (Berrett-Koehler Publishers, June 2010, paperback), Marcia Reynolds, Psy. D., draws on solid research and a wealth of clinical and personal experience to identify an emerging identity among high-achieving women.



Wander women are confident, gutsy, dynamic high achievers who don’t struggle with the same issues that their foremothers in the work world did. They aren’t afraid to speak up, aren’t racked with self-doubt, and have little trouble asserting themselves. However, that doesn’t mean that they aren’t struggling. Wander women often feel underutilized, bored, unfulfilled, and fearful that they are not living up to their potential or having the impact that they know they are capable of. Their solution is often to wander from job to job, career to career, business to business in search of fulfillment, and this leaves them even more anxious, exhausted, and confused. Now, for the first time, they have help.



In Wander Women (http://www. WanderWomanBook. com): How High-Achieving Women Find Contentment and Direction, master coach Marcia Reynolds, Psy. D., shows wander women how to “wander on purpose.” She gives them the tools they need to gain insight into why they wander and to make strategic decisions about when to move on. For many wander women this will not mean fewer changes, but smarter ones. They will move on because they are ready to take the next step, not because they can no longer stand the boredom or frustration. Reynolds also addresses the “burden of greatness” that wander women typically carry. In addition, she situates the wander woman in a historical context, noting the social, political, and historical forces that have shaped this new identity.
