Oy Gevalt! is a blog dedicated to my grandmother, Guta Gantz. An Aushwitz and Buchenwald survivor, she is not only the strongest women I've ever known, she also invented "Leaning In". As in, leaning into her grandkids to get married already! She said Oy Gevalt! a lot. For those of you non-Yiddish speakers, 'Oy Gevalt' is an expression of utmost anxiety, frustration or shock. Similar to how we might use "Good Grief!" or "OMG!" Often used while kvetching, it's a very poignant expression for any working mother of two and/or women in tech. I am both. www.linkedin.com/in/lbenzur www.twitter.com/lbenzur
