Corinne Low blends clear-eyed economics with real-world experience to make life’s biggest choices—career, family, partnership—feel navigable, evidence-based, and genuinely empowering.

Drawing on the economist’s toolkit, she reframes “happiness” as utility, shows how to maximize it under constraints, and treats fertility as “reproductive capital” to be timed and invested thoughtfully. She shifts the spotlight from women “leaning in” to men leveling up at home, and from vibes to data: track time, surface invisible labor, and use BATNA thinking to set walk-away points at work and in relationships.

In an age of burnout and performative perfection, Low offers practical moves: pay yourself first with leisure, set boundaries (not just flexibility), negotiate through win-win framing, interview partners like co-CEOs, and ignore the social-media mirage that distorts what you value. The result is economics reimagined as a compassionate daily practice—not to impress a boss, but to align with your own utility function and live better.
