Episode Synopsis

Welcoming a child into our family turns our world upside down.  It can be a lonely and very challenging time.  Our guest today, Lori Mihalich-Levin, talks about how the birth of her two sons turned her world upside down and left her in a spiral of both chaos and beauty.   She searched for support for getting through this time, but could not find any…so she created them.   Working with thousands of working caregivers and those who employ them, she makes this transitional time one that enables leaders to not just survive, but to grow, thrive and advance their careers. We have a conversation packed with practical advice for caregivers and leaders of caregivers and I know you'll get a lot out of it. About LoriLori Mihalich-Levin, JD, believes in empowering working parents.  She is the founder and CEO of Mindful Return, author of Back to Work After Baby: How to Plan and Navigate a Mindful Return from Maternity Leave, and co-host of the Parents at Work Podcast.  She is mama to two wonderful red-headed boys (ages 9 and 11) and is a health care lawyer in private practice.  Her thought leadership has been featured in publications including Forbes, The Washington Post, New York Times Parenting, Thrive Global, and The Huffington Post. Links SharedMindful ReturnLori's InstagramLori's LinkedInIf you want to join this movement of women seeking to thrive in leadership and life be sure to subscribe and connect with us!LinkedInIG: @wearemomsthatleadFB: @momsthatleadConnect on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/teri-m-schmidt/Get 1-on-1 leadership support from Teri here: https://www.strongleadersserve.com/coachingSet up an intro call with Teri: https://calendly.com/terischmidt/discoverycall
