Can you actually measure what that looks like in YOUR household? (spolier alert - yes you can!) How to have those awkward conversations at home about sharing the load, and what small steps everyone can take today to ensure we are moving towards a more equal world. Listen in to hear more.

Maternity leave & Return to Work support

In this episode I talk to Anna, an experienced coach having previously worked with mothers in the capacity of a nanny and then, after seeing how parents were struggling in the home, moved into the corporate space to help them with the transition back to work. We also discuss what are the main barriers for women in the workplace, how issues of guilt, shame and resentment manifest themselves in the workplace and what companies, if any, are doing amazingly in this space.

The parenting website for dads

In this week's episode I talk to the AWESOME Han-Son Lee, CEO of Daddilife - the leading online platform for modern day dads. We talked about giving a voice to dads, how he's built a community of over 150,000 dads, his research with Deloitte on the Millennial Dad and how things are changing. Very interestingly we discussed how some of the 'working parent crisis' is due to poor communication, and how companies can make safe-spaces for mums and dads to 'bring their whole self to work.' I also quizzed Han-Son on what we can be doing to teach our children about gender stereotypes and what we all hope the future will look like. Listen in and follow for more great insight into the world of working parents.

Power of the Parent - working with businesses to support parents in the workplace 

In this episode I talk to Charlotte about the work she is doing with companies to support parents. The unintended consequences of Working From Home - specifically the impact this may be having on our little ones, and how our Early Years sector is broken and in desperate need of reform. After a 12 year corporate career, Charlotte realised it was time for her to figure out what was really important, and how she could use her strengths and skills to start making a difference to parents in the workplace. Charlotte helps parents reconnect with their unique set of strengths, driving their engagement, self worth and confidence. Alongside this she works with line managers who want to make a positive difference to support their teams as they grow their families. Listen for an insightful discussion!!
