Beneath the party atmosphere lies a billion-dollar industry, Direct Home Sales (DHS), which is currently changing how women navigate work and family.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDrawing from numerous interviews with consultants and observations at company-sponsored events, \u003ci\u003ePaid to Party\u003c\/i\u003e takes a closer look at how DHS promises to change the way we think and feel about the struggles of balancing work and family.
