Jayne Buxton, born in the UK and having lived across Canada, the US, and the UK, holds an MBA from IMD Business School and a master’s degree in creative writing from Kingston University. She spent fifteen years as a management consultant specializing in business strategy and data analysis before making waves with her debut nonfiction work, "Ending the Mother War," in 1998. This groundbreaking book tackled the complexities faced by women balancing motherhood and careers, earning Jayne recognition as a leading figure in the feminist movement.
