I worked on Bay Street for years with a major financial intuition and I call bs,  It's an excuse for personal failure. 
It's a rat race that will challenge every  fibber of your body.
No unions, no promotions based seniority, no job security, painful truths that don't come with safe places, cut throat compition and horrific long hours that require sacrifice.  
I have no doubt she had a lot of punches thrown at her but it's to be expected when you enter the ring.  I can't tell you how many times I have seen good people come and go becouse it's simply not fair !!!
