Women are struggling to leave their hard-fought careers, in part because we worry about somehow being less after our career ends; it feels like we are losing a huge part of our foundational identity. We have called this the new feminist crisis\u2014who will I be after my career ends?<\/p>\n<p>DefyingGravity.life was born with the vision statement to solve this feminist crisis and a mission statement that includes cultivating new norms and creating new pathways through engaging conversation and expert advice.<\/p>\n<p>Baby boomer women have been pioneers for their entire careers, going where no women have gone before. We always carried the additional responsibility of knowing we were paving the way for the next generation of women. This site is for us, as we face this difficult transition, and yet again, create a new path for those that follow, by creating a retirement journey that is as purposeful and exciting as our careers.<\/p>\n<p>DefyingGravity.life was built because we know that this is a brave generation of women and when we come together to share and strategize and solve a problem, the possibilities are endless and the outcomes will be provocative.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-clearfix\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-fullwidth fullwidth-box fusion-builder-row-3 nonhundred-percent-fullwidth non-hundred-percent-height-scrolling\" style=\"--awb-border-radius-top-left:0px;--awb-border-radius-top-right:0px;--awb-border-radius-bottom-right:0px;--awb-border-radius-bottom-left:0px;--awb-background-color:#d8e6d0;--awb-flex-wrap:wrap;\" ><div class=\"fusion-builder-row fusion-row\"><div class=\"fusion-layout-column fusion_builder_column fusion-builder-column-3 fusion_builder_column_1_1 1_1 fusion-one-full fusion-column-first fusion-column-last\" style=\"--awb-bg-size:cover;--awb-margin-top:70px;--awb-margin-bottom:0px;\"><div class=\"fusion-column-wrapper fusion-flex-column-wrapper-legacy\"><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-2\"><p><span class=\"so-title\">We\u2019re so <strong>Glad<\/strong> you\u2019re here<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Joining our DefyingGravity.life community is a brave step, if only because you have acknowledged that you are confronting an issue so many successful baby boomer women are facing\u2014what and who will I be if I leave my career?

I received a Master\u2019s Degree from Northwestern in English, a foolish move in the \u201870\u2019s if you wanted to be employed, but I got a job as a technical writer at one of the Big Eight and nine years later, I became a partner.\u00a0 I participated gleefully in the feminization of the workforce. I did many firsts at Cooper &amp; Lybrand, later PricewaterhouseCoopers, including being one of the first women to run a major profit center, be on the Board and sit on the Management Committee and become a Vice Chairman.\u00a0 It was a glorious run, and the whole time I was able to push and wholeheartedly participate in what was then called diversity initiatives, particularly as they related to women. I ended my career as a CHRO for a company with 60,000+ employees in 20 countries and was privileged to learn so much about different cultures and make friends all over the world and yet again challenge the norms on women. \u00a0I am still on the Advisory Council of Sutherland Global Services today<\/p>\n<p>I learned so many things throughout my career, but my primary lesson, which came hard for me, was not to be afraid.\u00a0 We are worthy of that which comes to us and being our authentic selves can bring great reward.<\/p>\n<p>It was unbelievably hard to leave my career and I saw that I was not alone in this dilemma.\u00a0 Women, for whom their career was central to their lives and who they were, could not fathom retiring to leisure alone and living without purpose and passion.\u00a0 I took my primary lesson, not to be afraid and decided to do something for and with my sisters.\u00a0 We have accomplished so much, gone where women have never gone before, and we are not going out with a whimper.\u00a0 We will not now be a bunch of timid older women, it isn\u2019t who we are.<\/p>\n<p>So DefyingGravity.life was born.\u00a0 My life-long friend, Monica was shoulder to shoulder with me on this new mission.\u00a0 My grown children are proud of this new chapter, my daughter recently told someone her mother was a \u201cbad-ass\u201d and I couldn\u2019t be prouder.\u00a0 My husband, Jeff, believes that if anyone can do this it is me, and he knows with Monica by my side, we will be formidable.\u00a0 I want to continue to be unafraid and build\u00a0DefyingGravity.life into something meaningful.\u00a0 This is my purpose and passion.<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"modal-footer\"><button class=\"fusion-button button-default button-medium button default medium\" type=\"button\" data-dismiss=\"modal\">Close<\/button><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-modal modal fade modal-2 monica\" tabindex=\"-1\" role=\"dialog\" aria-labelledby=\"modal-heading-2\" aria-hidden=\"true\" style=\"--awb-border-color:#ebebeb;--awb-background:#f6f6f6;\"><div class=\"modal-dialog modal-lg\" role=\"document\"><div class=\"modal-content fusion-modal-content\"><div class=\"modal-header\"><button class=\"close\" type=\"button\" data-dismiss=\"modal\" aria-hidden=\"true\" aria-label=\"Close\">&times;<\/button><h3 class=\"modal-title\" id=\"modal-heading-2\" data-dismiss=\"modal\" aria-hidden=\"true\">Monica Israel<\/h3><\/div><div class=\"modal-body fusion-clearfix\">\n<h3><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazyload wp-image-127 size-full alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/defyinggravity.life\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/monica-isreal.png\" data-orig-src=\"https:\/\/defyinggravity.life\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/monica-isreal.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"350\" height=\"415\" srcset=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%27http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%27%20width%3D%27350%27%20height%3D%27415%27%20viewBox%3D%270%200%20350%20415%27%3E%3Crect%20width%3D%27350%27%20height%3D%27415%27%20fill-opacity%3D%220%22%2F%3E%3C%2Fsvg%3E\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/defyinggravity.life\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/monica-isreal-200x237.png 200w, https:\/\/defyinggravity.life\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/monica-isreal-253x300.png 253w, https:\/\/defyinggravity.life\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/monica-isreal.png 350w\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-orig-sizes=\"(max-width: 350px) 100vw, 350px\" \/>Co-Founder, COO<\/h3>\n<p>As I got ready for college there was no hesitation as to what curriculum path I would follow as there were, maybe, three or four main options that seemed available to women. Although I thought being a teacher was what I wanted, in retrospect, I realize that teaching was one of a very few careers I saw modeled by women. No high school counselor had other suggestions and my family was pleased with my choice. I was very disappointed when I realized this occupation was not right for me.<\/p>\n<p>I graduated from University of Illinois at Chicago with a degree in Special Education. I taught elementary school for a few years but then moved on to my 38 year career, of selling textbooks and software to schools. I became active in professional organizations and had a rewarding career. I discovered strengths that no one would have guessed I had, least of all me. The sales profession is tough, requires real discipline and tenacity and a thick skin, I was the thinnest-skinned person I knew.<\/p>\n<p>In 1970, sales was a man\u2019s profession, it was just that simple. I will never forget attending a critical function in an all-male club that didn\u2019t want to let me set up my exhibit. At times, I was my own worst enemy, trying to please and not standing up for myself. For example, I eagerly filled in for the secretary when she took her two-week vacation at winter break since schools were closed. I reasoned that I was available to take on her tasks of answering phone calls and typing letters. It wasn\u2019t until a male manager saw how unfair this was and insisted that every sales representative (all men) take a turn working as a secretary during her absence. It was a learning experience for all of us, but today it would be unfathomable to let that happen. When I was pregnant, one of my male competitors told our customers that he understood, that I would be returning to my job after the baby was born. This was supposed to create the negative image of a working woman leaving her child behind to be cared for by a stranger\u2014who would want to do business with such a monster? Well, it turned out that most of my customers were female, fighting a like battle\u2014I had one of my best years ever.<\/p>\n<p>I became active in professional organizations and I worked with other women entering the company to provide a more comfortable environment for all of us. We shot down stereotypes, the most egregious being that women couldn\u2019t sell, take rejection and negotiate. We showed them we could do it all.<\/p>\n<p>As I began contemplating retirement, I realized that there were so many roads I could take. I spent time talking with my dear friend Iris, a friend since childhood. We discussed all the opportunities ahead of us. I was excited to embrace this new freedom, but scared and anxious about the journey. After talking to many women in my situation, I realized I wasn\u2019t alone in my feelings and discomfort. Iris had also found that there were many women who were excited but struggling with their thoughts about retirement. Through our conversations, we decided to create a virtual community to address these needs.<\/p>\n<p>My husband Bob and I raised a son and daughter in Glenview, Illinois. Our two adult children are now exploring what life has to offer in New York and Illinois. I really enjoy spending time with family and friends, I am always energized being around smart women. Reading, yoga, baking and traveling, always make me happy. I really look forward to my new challenge working on DefyingGravity.Life. My hope is that it provides a meaningful vehicle for women who are looking for their life to be a continuing adventure.<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"modal-footer\"><button class=\"fusion-button button-default button-medium button default medium\" type=\"button\" data-dismiss=\"modal\">Close<\/button><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-clearfix\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"100-width.php","meta":{"give_campaign_id":0,"_bbp_topic_count":0,"_bbp_reply_count":0,"_bbp_total_topic_count":0,"_bbp_total_reply_count":0,"_bbp_voice_count":0,"_bbp_anonymous_reply_count":0,"_bbp_topic_count_hidden":0,"_bbp_reply_count_hidden":0,"_bbp_forum_subforum_count":0,"pmpro_default_level":"","inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-11","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry","pmpro-has-access"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.5 -
