Honestly, how does she cope?

She writes: “During extremely high-capacity times, like during the campaign, I went into survival mode: I worked and I was with my family; I didn’t do much else. Honestly, I wasn’t treating myself to a massage or making much time for self-care. I wish I could have awoken early to meditate for twenty minutes … ”

“I began to wonder whether I had been doing women who work a disservice by not owning the reality that, because I’ve got an infant, I’m in my bathrobe at 7am and there’s pureed avocado all over me,” she writes, according to an advance extract in Fortune.

“I realized that it might be helpful in changing the narrative – even in a small way – to, for example, debunk the superwoman myth by posting a photo that my husband candidly snapped of me digging in the garden with the kids in our backyard, my hair in a messy ponytail, dirt on my cheek.”

“Women who work are real,” she writes, in Women who Work, Rewriting the Rules for Success, her second book.

Trump, 35, who was appointed as a White House adviser in late March, writes: “Becoming comfortable authentically expressing myself as a female executive with kids was a bit of a journey for me.”

There's no arguing that $750M buys a lot of primo child services and nanny care freeing up Ivanka to be all the mom she can be. Unfortunately, the "average" mom cannot afford to be so glib and cavalier about the challenges of one-on-one child rearing.

The rich are different.

I fathered two children and during their diaper years I was a college student and changed just as many diapers as their mother. We quickly learned that commercial baby food was expensive and a blender was cheap. Self-prepared or commercial, I NEVER saw pureed avocado.
I did get covered in vomit a couple of times. That's why caretakers for small children carry so much around with them, lots of spare supplies of all kinds. An assortment of plastic bags for isolating various used material is essential.

But I don't remember any time meditating alone. The time holding an infant while rocking a darkened room is excellent Zen.

having a kid and working is hard (kind of like being president)? Who would have thought it?

And she needn't worry, no one would think of her as superwoman, even without the photo.

She can't be superwoman; another rich Trump-lovin' mommy of 4 already has a lock on that image:
