Why does it matter?
Becoming a parent is one of the most meaningful and challenging transformations that women can go through in their lifetime. Returning to work after having a child comes with a heightened risk for burnout.
New mothers are expected to perform in high-demanding roles, while juggling a new set of responsibilities at home, and navigating a major shift in their identity. They are pressured to meet societal expectations and receive little to no support in the workplace.
The lack of a supportive environment is a key reason why mothers leave the full-time workforce, and why women in positions of leadership are so scarce.
