THE WELLNESS PATHWAY

In this episode, I speak with three professional women Lucy Denver, Catie Dear and Irmak Sunal Lutkin,  who have come together to form "& Return," a community that supports parents in the workplace, returning to work from maternity and paternity leave.

Through their own personal experience they’re realised the lack of support and resources available for parents that are navigating through the ultimate juggle of parenthood and career. Unfortunately, the realities of pregnancy and parenthood are not typically a topic of discussion where workers feel they can be honest with their employers about their feelings, their challenges and if they need support. 

Unfortunately when children are in the picture, . And As a result, working mums and dads feel the pressure to change career or find a new job to fit their new lifestyle and find challenging to stay with a company and progress further into a leadership position (especially mothers).

This is an area where companies should be more progressive. Especially with a stronger focus on employee well-being, supporting parents to achieve this balance can be valuable not only to the employee, but also the company as well. Thanks to recent research which we discuss more in this interview, there are so many reasons why organisations should be developing or improving programs for parents returning to work.
