Shonda Rhimes’ Guide To Perfect Chaos: Work, Kids, & Cracked Juggling
Shonda Rhimes, TV’s queen of 'Grey’s Anatomy,' spilled the tea on the myth of 'doing it all' while juggling a TV empire and motherhood. In a 2025 'Call Her Daddy' chat with Alex Cooper, she called the 'lean in' mantra 'such bullshit'—apparently mindlessly powering through is less magic and more meltdown. Back in 2014 at Dartmouth, she confessed success in one area equals epic fail in another. Hollywood pals like Keira Knightley (2024) and Michelle Williams (2025) echo the chaos, choosing between career and kid chaos like it’s a twisted game show. Spoiler: nobody wins, just survivability points.
