Shannon, this is an excellent interview of Eve Rodsky! I hung on every word, and it turns out I have some things in common with her. I spent an enormous amount of time at my grandparents' and aunt's place on 3rd Street and Avenue A. I've also rejected Orthodox Judaism.

I loved Eve's final quote: "That I helped the world understand that an hour holding a child’s hand in the pediatrician’s office is just as valuable as an hour in the board room." As a mom, I agree. Family life is so much more important than work life -- I, too, had a toxic boss -- but even with great bosses, comforting a child is so much more vital than getting business done.
