The two discussed the strain that his career puts on his family in the recent documentary series “Tom Vs. Time.” Some reports have suggested that Bundchen has tried and failed in the past to convince Brady to stop playing football. But in an interview with The Wall Street Journal Magazine that published Tuesday , Bundchen made it clear that she has no intention of trying to end Brady’s playing career before Brady wants it to end. “It’s not my decision to make.

The latest survey by Boardbound of the Women’s Leadership Foundation found that women held 21% of the board seats on Colorado public companies at the end of 2020, an increase of nearly 4 percentage points in a year.

It was a real shock that it was so low,” said Jo Lynne Whiting, Boardbound chairwoman. Since then, the organization has worked with company CEOs to raise awareness, recognize successes and offer support, such as connecting companies with qualified candidates.
