Parental leave is a confusing topic to most of us because there is no uniformity from state to state and company to company. Many parents are probably not getting all the benefits available to them in parental leave because it’s such a confusing system. Today’s guest works relentlessly to help people figure this out and make the most of parental leave benefits and balancing parenthood and a career. Join us to learn more!

Dr. Anne Welsh is a clinical psychologist, executive coach, and consultant. She began her career at Harvard before opening her own practice with a focus on supporting working parents in growing their careers and families. As an expert on the transition from working person to working parent, Dr. Welsh has dedicated her life to unraveling the interplay between career aspirations, personal fulfillment, and women’s mental health throughout their lifespan. Being a mother of four allows her to draw from her own experience as a mother, her research career on the transition to motherhood, and over 15 years in practice to help parents feel less alone and more connected to themselves and their values, fully empowered to make their own choices.
