I watched Renee Elise Goldberry's Tony Acceptance speech. She mentioned that she spent her child-bearing years pursuing both her career and motherhood, and that she was so happy to be able to stand there with a Tony and say that, and to also pay tribute to her parents. I looked up her history and found a nice article on Cosmo that shows the path to success is not easy.
"The real blessing for me in winning the Tony was the opportunity for the testimony. I think you have to chase your life even harder than you chase your career. I was very clear when I was trying to have children that that was my priority. You feel like you're risking choosing one or the other when you do that, but the celebration for me was that I chased both family and career very hard, and the fact that I could celebrate having my children and that Tony award was a miracle."
