Returning to work after having children opened Lori Mihalich-Levin’s eyes to the complexity of returning to work and the need for resources to ease that transition—for new parents and employers. Filling that void, Lori authored the bestselling book Back to Work After Baby: How to Plan and Navigate a Mindful Return from Maternity Leave; co-hosts the Parents at Work Podcast, and founded Mindful Return—a movement that helps new parents navigate parenthood and the return to work after parental leave. Join hosts Dee Martin and Yasmin Nelson as they dive into what drives Lori’s passion to empower new working parents. This episode includes a discussion on parental leave in the United States; how to tackle the guilt that parents often face while trying to balance parthood and working; why taking steps to make your passions a reality is important; and how she is equipping parents with the tools they need to shape parental polices at their workplace. Also, Lori—who recently became a teacher on the Insight Timer app—gives some tips on how to incorporate meditation into our daily lives. This episode comes just in time for you to share some of Lori’s products to a new parent for the holiday season!
