Generation X is the demographic force of nature born between the mid-1960s and early 1980s. My generation experienced such a shift in cultural, economic, and technological changes. These shaped (or warped) our personalities, work ethics, and values. 

If you know someone from this generation, they likely have some traits in common that make me…I mean us… seem like mythical creatures that can do anything they set their mind to - especially the Gen X women. 

I’ve been maintaining this thing called life for a while. Why?

The easy answer is “Because I’m good at it.”

Most women are. From a young age maintaining is a goal we are taught to aim at. Especially those that have parents pushing their sweet young children into the American Dream that sometimes feels like a nightmare.
