For some women, leaving the workforce to care for children or family is a choice. For others, it is a necessity. But Neha Ruch, founder of Mother Untitled, doesn’t think a career pause means putting aside professional ambitions. PBS News' Ali Rogin sat down with Ruch to discuss her new book, “The Power Pause: How to Plan a Career Break After Kids – and Come Back Stronger than Ever." "In pausing or shifting our career to make room for family life, we can actually make room to tune in to what actually lights us up," Ruch told Rogin. "Even if we don't have the same amount of time available to us, we can still get strategic about ways in which to grow that then end up serving us on our return," Ruch said.

Israel pulled its forces from a key Gaza corridor Sunday and the withdrawal is part of a fragile ceasefire deal with Hamas. On Israel’s northern front inside Lebanon, Israel’s forces have already missed a deadline to withdraw, and concerns are mounting that they may stay past a second deadline to withdraw by Feb. 18. @SimonaFoltyn reports from the Lebanese border.

In a letter Thursday night, the Trump administration directed states to stop spending money for EV charging infrastructure, funds they were allocated under former President Joe Biden. Trump has slammed federal funding for electric vehicle chargers as “an incredible waste of taxpayer dollars.”
