This book takes a first-hand look at the struggles of two women working to break through the glass ceiling. But at the height of their careers, they crash due to illness. The way they initially broke through the glass ceiling and then crashed down to earth and rebuilt their identities is a good reading material for all women trying to get to the top and also those who are forced out of employment. Their reflections on what built them, sustained them through their identity crisis, and assisted them to rebuild provide essential reading for all career-minded women, their partners, and anyone interested in using life reflections to stay afloat.
