What a policy gap really costs you.

Most businesses want to support their employees through one of life's biggest transitions. But without a clear policy, good intentions turn into inconsistency and inconsistency costs you your best people.

  • You've lost a valued employee after parental leave and weren't sure why.
  • You're handling each leave case ad hoc, and it feels unfair and stressful.
  • You're not sure what's legally required versus what's just good practice.
  • You want to offer something competitive but don't know where to start.

"Becoming a parent is one of the biggest transitions a person will ever face. What employers do in that moment says everything about the kind of workplace they're building."

I've lived it, studied it, then wrote the book on it.

My experiences as a working parent helped me understand how high the stakes are when team members don't feel supported. I used my training as a veterinarian to critically evaluate the challenges both parents and employers face when approaching parental leave. Then I wrote and published a book about the intersection of working parenthood and veterinary medicine. I leveled up with a certification as a RETAIN Parental Leave Coach to incorporate evidence-based strategies to support both workplaces and working parents.
