Wishful Thinking

Wishful Thinking

Jennifer Sharpe is a divorced mother of two with a problem just about any working parent can relate to: her boss expects her to work as though she doesnâ€™t have children, and her children want her to care for them as though she doesnâ€™t have a boss. But when, through a fateful coincidence, a brilliant physicist comes into possession of Jenniferâ€™s phone and decides to play fairy godmother, installing a miraculous time-travel app called Wishful Thinking, Jennifer suddenly finds herself in possession of what seems like the answer to the impossible dream of having it all: an app that lets her be in more than one place at the same time.

With the app, Jennifer goes quickly from zero to hero in every part of her life: she is super-worker, the last to leave her office every night; she is super-mom, the first to arrive at pickup every afternoon; and she even becomes super-girlfriend, dating a musician who thinks she has unlimited childcare and a flexible job. But Jennifer soon finds herself facing questions that adding more hours to her day canâ€™t answer. Why does she feel busier and more harried than ever? Is she aging faster than everyone around her? How can she be a good worker, mother, and partner when she canâ€™t be honest with anybody in her life? And most important, when choosing to be with your children, at work, or with your partner doesnâ€™t involve sacrifice, do those choices lose their meaning? Wishful Thinking is a modern-day fairy tale in which one woman learns to overcome the challengesâ€•and appreciate the joysâ€•of living life in real time.
