She was married with children and a good career. So why did she feel miserable? And why did it seem that other Generation X women were miserable, too?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCalhoun decided to find some answers. She looked into housing costs, HR trends, credit card debt averages, and divorce data. At every turn, she saw a pattern: sandwiched between the Boomers and the Millennials, Gen X women were facing new problems as they entered middle age, problems that were being largely overlooked.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSpeaking with women across America about their experiences as the generation raised to \"have it all,\" Calhoun found that most were exhausted, terrified about money, under-employed, and overwhelmed. Instead of being heard, they were told instead to lean in, take \"me-time,\" or make a chore chart to get their lives and homes in order.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci\u003eWhy We Can't Sleep\u003c\/i\u003e, Calhoun opens up the cultural and political contexts of Gen X's predicament and offers solutions for how to pull oneself out of the abyss--and keep the next generation of women from falling in.
