Ep. 41   Prue Gilbert

Prue Gilbert is a lawyer, human rights advocate and mother....and she combines her vast experiences in all three areas to improve the lives of thousands.

Marie Claire called her the “the anti-discrimination guru”. Vogue named her a “Game Changer” and her business, Grace Papers, won the Australian Human Rights Business Award for addressing pregnancy related discrimination.

At its heart, her company coaches those navigating the parental leave journey from pregnancy, parental leave and returning to work. Both employees AND employers. She outlines the enormous benefits to both when they get the flexible work practices right. 

I wish I'd had this available when we were going through this journey - I've selfishly outlined a bit of my own story in this episode. 

Grace Paper and Prue Gilbert are proving to be a game changer. For everyone. And the covid work from home requirements has just emphasised what Prue has been saying for years. Now the benefits are obvious to everyone. But they weren't when Prue started her journey. 
Another pioneer really worth a listen.
