[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I did my move when I was younger - in my early 30s. Off ramped for 18 months and then jumped back on. I have friends now like you though, Chief Legal Officer at a huge multinational, gave it up to raise three boys. What was initially a temporary step back is now a 4 year pause and honestly she is never getting back to where she was. She has lost the drive and aspiration for it. I know she misses it sometimes. I know another lawyer, same story. She claims she is fine and is busy enough. But doth protest too much with her. I know she is not. This move you’re going to make is a tricky one, and think through whether you’d be okay with the ultimate trade offs [/quote]

Maybe in the long run she doesn’t care if she gets back to where she was. She has time for her boys. Not everyone lives to work. [/quote]

Well first you can stop projecting. And do you wake up thinking to yourself I’m doing to go be an ass on DCUM today? 
Second I would say It’s not that she doesn’t Care to get back…. It’s that she is Choosing not to get back… it definitely matters to her to some degree and she does think about it and talk about it. But she is home for her boys for now. As I said it is a trade off. [/quote]
