She seems nice enough, but I can’t stand her vocal cadence on WTOP.

I really like her and feel so sad that she is sacrificing her career - like so many women do for the sake of her family. She is late 30's and entering the zone of ageism so who knows if she will ever get back on TV.

It just was sad to see it happen to her and her career. I will miss her on the weekend weather. I hope she has a great life.


Welcome to the world. This is what happens to most women. They sacrifice career for family.

Are you okay OP? late 30's and entering the zone of ageism? Are you kidding me? She's not 60 trying to re-enter the workplace. Also problematic is that you feel "sad" that she is putting her family first.

Podcast, Spotify, YouTube. She'll be fine.

From what I heard, she’ll still be doing weather reports on WTOP radio. She is well-liked in this area. Hopefully they’ll return here after his posting and she can be back on the air.

There are lots of jobs on TV for 40 somethings, right?


For sure especially bleach blondes with perky tits

This is how having children impacts women's careers and earnings. It happens a lot, especially with spouses working abroad.

Obviously, they decided that's the best for their family. I am not going to second guess. Good luck to her family.
