Barbara Brotman, columnist of the Chicago Tribune wrote a column that featured one of the At My Pace contributors, Ellen Morton, and the choices she made to give up her career in writing and spend more time with her family while pursuing other work such as being an executive director of her synagogue and being a writing tutor for special-needs-college students.

Ms. Brotman quotes Jill Ebstein, "I felt like there was a need to expand the conversation because so many women were feeling marginalized or a little bit left out...
