Her Terms

Her Terms is a sharp, unsparing exploration of the invisible architecture that dictates the lives of women, examining what happens when they finally stop playing their assigned roles in a rigged system. Across corporate boardrooms, elite drawing rooms, and modern kitchens, the characters in these pages confront the hidden costs of compliance—from the quiet tax of the "e;Guilt Economy"e; and the exhausting performance of being "e;fine"e; under immense pressure, to pre-nuptial and domestic agreements designed to legally minimize a high-powered founder into a domestic accessory.Dissecting the insidious ways control is exerted through benevolent condescension, conditional permission, and weaponized compromise, Her Terms maps the high-stakes reality of reclaiming boundaries in a world that profits from a woman's endless availability. It is a bold, electrifying book about the terrifying and exhilarating moment a woman looks at the life she never agreed to, tears up the contract, and drafts an entirely new blueprint on her own terms.
