Can Mormom women have "regular" jobs?

[Anonymous]

This article has a really great overview about the professional and familial tension of being an LDS woman:

I know a number of Mormon women who have significant careers (c-suite or equivalent in politics).

Are they sucessfuly professionals though? Because being attractive, funny, cool, "relatable" and a SAHM to many children is part of a larger branding strategy of the church to re-enforce their norms and present the church in a more palatable way. I would not be shocked by a hipster blogger Mormon. They're kind of everywhere.

Who cares? I don't define self-worth off of job title or paycheck.

I actually find the mindless consumerism and making a paycheck off the backs of exploiting and exposing your kids online pretty gross, so I guess in that way I do think they should evaluate their worth. Their are many, many jobs where I evaluate people similarly. The branding strategy is just crass, and I look at them in the same way I do most, "influencers."

I have some Mormon women in my life and all I can say is that they are lovely and they enrich my life greatly.
You really need to look beyond just one aspect of someone’s life.
