Farewell and Reflections From a Jewess with Attitude

Dear friends,

After three invaluable years, I’m signing off as Communications Specialist and Blogger-in-Chief at the Jewish Women’s Archive.

In the three years since I started on my journey with Jewesses with Attitude, this blog has undergone a transformation. Its readership has grown from around 6,000 unique viewers per month to nearly 16,000 per month. A dedicated, passionate, and diverse group of writers have joined us, lending their voices to create a chorus of commentary on topics of interest to Jewish women. Jewesses with Attitude has grown from a small, niche blog to a national, competitive blog—a destination for thoughtful analysis, courageous opinions, and stories of all kinds of trailblazing Jewish women.
