We’ve all heard of the glass ceiling, but there’s an even deeper barrier that needs to be discussed. This hidden barrier, as Ellen Connelly Taaffe refers to it in her book, The Mirrored Door: Break Through the Hidden Barrier That Locks Successful Women in Place, is constructed from the well-intentioned norms that are ingrained in women’s minds and holding them back more than they realize.

For many summer is a great time to start a great new book. From poolside summer reads, to midflight professional development, there's a summer read out there for everyone. If you're anything like me, you'll find yourself standing in a bookstore somewhere fully intent on picking out a great book to take on your next trip and wind up either not knowing what you want to read and spending an hour perusing books only to leave empty handed hoping to read reviews on Google later, or you'll leave with 4 or more books debating which to start first.
