As defined by the American Psychological Association, superwoman syndrome is a set of characteristics found in a woman who performs or attempts to perform all the duties typically associated with several different full-time roles, such as wage earner, mother, homemaker, and wife/partner, advocate, and friend. The list goes on and on.
