#117 Lori Mihalich-Levin | How to navigate parenthood in the workplace

Are you a working parent? Struggling with confidence after returning to work? Lori Mihalich-Levin, founder and CEO of mindful return and author of the book “Back to work after baby”, highlights the additional, career-critical skills that we acquire through parenthood, and how these skills can make us better leaders.

Lori discusses the importance of employers not making assumptions about what a person may feel capable of once they have returned to work, as well as normalising conversations about how one may be feeling. Moreover, offering parental leave in a gender-neutral way helps to emphasise the humanity of taking parental leave.

Returning to work after parental leave is a long transition period, with many challenges along the way, and Lori provides excellent guidance on ways to personally face these challenges, as well as ways that employers can help working parents thrive.
